Finland's solo project Satanic Warmaster has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for more of a raw and satanic style of black metal and this is a review of hid 2022 album "Aamongandr" which will be released on December 30th by Werewolf Records.
A very fast and raw sound starts off the album along with a great amount of tremolo picking and blast b eats. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style as well as the vocals also being mostly grim sounding black metal screams.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while some of the tracks are also very long and epic in length. All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them along with some tracks also adding in a small amount of clean playing.
Spoken word parts can also be heard briefly along with one song also introducing synths into the music which also gives the music more of an atmospheric feeling when they are utilized. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Satanism, Lycanthropy, Darkness and War themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Satanic Warmaster and if you are a fan of t his solo project, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Bafomet" and "Darkness...Triumphator". 8 out of 10.
