Petrale are a solo project from Croatia that plays a very dissonant form of black metal and this is a review of his self released 2022 album "Vrh".
Whispers start off the album before going into a heavier direction while the solos and leads are also done in a very dark y et melodic style. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams along with the faster sections of the songs also adding in a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats which also gives the music more of a r aw feeling.
At times the music also gets very dissonant sounding while the riffs also add in a great amount of melody. Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with some songs also adding in a small amount of clean playing as well as all of the musical instruments on the album also having a very powerfu8l sound to them, some of the tracks are also very long and epic in length and one song is also a Dino Dvornik cover.
Petrale plays a style of black metal that is very aggressive and dissonant sounding. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are written in a mixture of English and Croatian and cover manifestations of the devil in a rural, Mediterranean, catholic area.
In my opinion Petrale are a very great sounding dissonant black metal solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Whispering Fumes" "Invocation Of Silence" "Thrwing Nails" and "Vrh". 8 out of 10.
