Germany's solo project SEAD has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for more of a raw and improvised style of black metal and this is a review of his 2022 album "Raw Black Metal" which was released by Wolfmond Production.
A very dark yet heavy sound starts off the album while the vocals are mostly grim sounding black metal screams. Dark sounding melodies can also be heard in some of the guitar riffing at times along with the faster sections of the songs also adding in a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats which also gives the music more of a raw feeling.
The music also adds in a great amount of old school influences while the songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. All of the music is also improvised along with all of the musical instruments on the recording also having a very powerful sound to them as well as a couple of songs also introducing clean playing onto the album.
On this recording SEAD plays a style of black metal that is very raw and improvised as well as being recorded while it was being created. The production sounds very dark and raw and the lyrics are written in German and cover dark and violent themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from SEAD and if you are a fan of raw and improvised black metal, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Der Untergang" "Dad Blut" and "Raw Black Metal". 8 out of 10.
