This is a review of another recording from solo project Dragojiniak which continues the raw and old school style of black metal from his previous release with elements of ambient and the ep was self released in 2022 and called "Ascend".
A very fast and raw sound starts of the ep along with a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Vocals are mostly grim yet high pitched black metal screams while the songs also add in a decent amount of old school influences as well as the riffs also adding in a small amount of melody at times.
Water sounds can also be heard briefly while one of the songs is also an acoustic guitar instrumental. The heavier tracks also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with the closing track being an ambient orientated instrumental which also adds in some keyboards and each sound sounds very different from each other.
On this recording Dragojiniak expands on his raw and old school style of black metal by adding in some different sounds that where not presented on the previous release. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover darkness and anger themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Dragojiniak and if you are a fan of raw and old school black metal with elements of ambient, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Envy" and "Ascend". 8 out of 10.
