Wormgod are a band from Romania that plays a very traditional form of black metal and this is a review of their 2022 album "Where Old Curses Rest" which will be released in October as a joint effort between War Productions and Void Wanderer Productions.
A very fast and raw sound starts off the album along with a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. melodies are also added into a lot of the guitar riffing while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams as well as the solos and leads also being done in a very melodic style.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while all of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them. The songs also mix in a great amount of mid 90's influences as well as remaining very modern at the same time along with one song also introducing synths onto the recording, clean playing can also be heard on a couple of tracks.
Wormgod plays a musical style that is very heavily rooted in the old school style of black metal which they also update for the modern era. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover darkness, hate and apocalyptic themes.
In my opinion Wormgod are a very great sounding traditional black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "My Blood" "In Vale" "Olden Crusade" and "Postselfapocalypse". 8 out of 10.
