Superterrestrial are a band from the United Kingdom that has been featured before in this zine and plays a space themed form of black metal with elements of dark ambient and this is a review of their album "The Fathomless Decay" which will be self released in 2023.
Ethereal soundscapes start off the album and also mixes in with the heavier sections of the songs at times. The riffs also add in a great amount of melody while the faster sections of the songs also add in a lot of tremolo picking and blast beats which also gives the music more of a raw feeling.
Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams while the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style when they are utilized. When synths are added into the music they also bring in elements of dark ambient along with most of the tracks also being very long and epic in length and all of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with the music also having its atmospheric moments, clean playing can also be heard on a couple of tracks The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover true space phenomena themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from Superterrestrial and if you are a fan of space themes black metal with elements of dark ambient, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Dark Energy" "Peariastron" and "Heliacal Rising". 8 out of 10.
