This is a review of a split album between Germany's Omegavortex and U.S.A's Pious Levus which will b e released in October as a joint effort between Invictus Productions and Dark Descent Records and we will start off the review with Omegavortex who return with their mixture of war, black and death metal.
Their side of the split starts out with a very fast and raw war metal sound which also uses a great amount of blast beats and tremolo picking and blast beats. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams along with some death metal growls also being used at times and the solos and leads are also done in a very chaotic style.
Distorted sounding melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while the music also adds in a great amount of 90's influences. The songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts, spoken word parts can also be heard briefly and their side of the split always sticks to a heavier direction. The production sounds very dark and r aw while the lyrics cover occultism themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Omegavortex and if you are a fan of war, black and death metal, you should check out their side of t he split. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Origin Of Evil" and "Paranormal Death".
Next up is Pious Leaves who return with their old school mixture of black and death emtal.
Their side of the split starts out with a very fast and brutal sound which also adds in a great amount of blast beats. Vocals are a mixture of death metal growls and black metal screams while the fast tremolo picking also gives the music more of a raw feeling and the music is also very heavily rooted in t he mid 80's to early 90's era.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they also remain very true to an old school style while the songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and their whole side of the split also sticks to a heavier direction. The production sounds very raw and old school while the lyrics cover Blasphemy, Anti Christianity and Occultism themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Pious Levus and if you are a fan of old school black and death metal, you should check out their side of the split. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Condemners Cult" and "The Never Betrayer".
In conclusion I feel this is a very great sounding split and i would recommend it to all fans of old school war, black and death meal. 8 out of 10.
