Ad Noctem Funeriis are a band from Italy that h as been featured before in this zine and on this recording goes for more of a satanic and occult style of black metal and this is a review of their 2022 album "Abyss, Fire, Brimstones" which was released as a joint effort between Symbol Of Dominion and Pluton's Rising Productions.
A very fast and raw sound starts off the album along with a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Melodies are also added into a lot of the guitar riffing while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams as well as the music also being very heavily rooted in the 90's second wave era.
Some of the tracks are also very long and epic in length while the solos and leads are also done in a very dark yet melodic style when they are utilized. Some of the songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with one track also adding in a brief use of clear vocals and introducing spoken word parts onto the album and as the recording progresses an acoustic guitar instrumental can also be heard
On this recording Ad Noctem Funeriis plays a style of occult black metal that is very satanic, raw, aggressive and melodic sounding. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Satanism and Occultism themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Ad Noctem Funeriis and if you are a fan of occult and satanic black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Abyss III" "Fire II" and "Brimstone II". 8 out of 10.
