Ecuador's Wampyric Rites has returned with a new recording which continues the raw, old school and vampyric style of black metal from previous releases and this is a review of their 2022 album "The Wolves Howl To The Moon" which will be released in August by Signal Rex.
Medieval organs and synths start off the album bringing in elements of dungeon synth before going into a very fast and r aw musical direction which also utilizes a great amount of blast beats and tremolo picking. Most of the tracks are also very long and epic in length and the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal s creams.
Demonic voices can also be heard at times while the music also adds in a great amount of 90's influences. Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with the synths also mixing in with the heavier sections of the songs at times as well as some melodic guitar solos leads also being utilized as the album progresses and one of the tracks is also an instrumental, acoustic guitars and nature sounds can also be heard briefly.
On this recording Wampyric Rites remains true to the raw, old school and vampyric style of black metal that they have established on previous releases. The production sounds very dark and r aw while the lyrics cover vampirism and darkness themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Wampyric Rites and if you are a fan of raw, old school and vampyric black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Rites under the Fullmoon" and "Captive In A Desolate Castle". 8 out of 10.
