NekroChaparro are a duo from Portugal that h as been featured before in this zine and plays a very experimental, communist and satanic form of black metal and this is a review of their self released 2022 album "the lord satan is my Shepherd... and I will dwell in His house forever".
Clean playing starts off the album along with some spoken word parts a few seconds later before introducing some synths and grim black metal screams onto the recording which also takes the music into more of a heavier and lo-fi direction while growls can also be be heard at times and the riffs also add in a decent amount of dark sounding melodies.
When the music speeds up a decent amount of blast beats can also be heard while all of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them. All of the drum beats are also programmed along with most of the riffing also only adding in a small amount of power chords.
Most of the album sticks to a mid tempo direction as well as the songs also having their experimental moments and as the recording progresses a brief use of tribal drumming can also be heard, choirs can also be heard on the closing track. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Satanism, communism and black metal along with the lyrics being written in a mixture of Portuguese and English.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from NektoChaparro and if you are a fan of experimental, communist and satanic black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Transtejania King" "to dwell in his House forever" "Sleep..Eternal" and "He Is My Shephard". 8 out of 10.
