Taltos are a band from Hungary that plays a very anarchistic, experimental and folk influenced form of pagan black metal and this is a review of their self released 2022 ep "Erezd hogy elsz".
Didgeridoo's start off the ep along with some tribal drumming and ritualistic chants a few seconds later before going into a heavier musical direction. Elements of ethnic folk music are also mixed in with the heavier sections of the songs at times and the vocals ar e mostly high pitched black metal s creams.
Spoken word parts can also be heard briefly while growls can also be heard at times along with the drum beats also being programmed. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing as well as the solos and leads also being done in a very melodic style, at times the music also gets very experimental sounding and all of the music sticks to either a slow or mid tempo direction and at times throat singing and influences of doom metal and punk can also be heard, clear vocals are also added on the closing song.
Taltos plays a style of pagan black metal that is very experimental sounding as well as adding in elements of folk music to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very dark and r aw while the lyric's are written in Hungarian and cover Hungarian Paganism, Shamanism and challenging the semi-doctoral régime of Hungary.
In my opinion Taltos are a very great sounding anarchistic, experimental and folk influenced pagan black metal b and and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Cannibal Waltz" and "Feel Alive".
