SEAD are a solo project form Germany that has had music reviewed before in this zine and plays a very raw and chaotic form of black metal and this is a review of his 2022 demo "Reise in eine Mystische Welt" which was released by Wolfmond Productions.
A very dark, heavy and lo-fi sound starts off the demo before going into a very fast and raw musical direction which also utilizes a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Vocals are mostly grim yet high pitched black metal screams while the music also adds in a lot of 90's era influences.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while dark sounding melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing. All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them along with a couple of songs also adding in a brief use of synths which also gives the music more of an atmospheric feeling as well a s the solos and ;leads also being done in a very dark, raw and melodic style when they are utilized, clean plating can also be heard briefly.
On this recordingf Sead expands on the synths which also gives his raw and chaotic style of black metal more diversity. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are written in German and cover dark themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from SEAD and if you are a fan of raw, atmospheric and old school black metal, you should check out this demo. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Mystische Reise" "Throne Of The Old Blood" and "Domen". 8 out of 10.
