Hadiqat are a solo project from Spain that plays a raw mixture of black and doom metal and this is a review of his 2022 demo "Eutropia" which was released in July by Xenoglossy Productions.
Dark ambient soundscapes and synths start off the demo before going into a heavier direction while the slower sections of the songs also bring in elements of doom metal. Most of the tracks are also very long and epic in length along with the vocals being mostly high pitched black metal screams.
Clear vocals can also b e heard briefly while the guitar leads are also done in a very dark and melodic style when they are utilized. A small amount of melody can also be heard in some of t he guitar riffing along with some tremolo picking and blast beats also being utilized when the music speeds up which also gives the recording more of a raw feeling and the demo closes with an instrumental..
Hadiqat plays a musical style which takes raw black and doom metal and mixes them together with a touch of dark ambient to create a sound of his own. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are influenced by Italo Calvino's "Invisible Cities" and Julio Cortlazar's short stories.
In my opinion Hadiqat are a very great sounding raw mixture of black and doom metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this solo project. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Horizontal Continuity". 8 out of 10.
