Ciemra are a band from Belarus that plays a very aggressive form of black metal and this is a review of their 2023 album "The Tread Of Darkness" which was released by Avantgarde Music.
Acoustic guitars start off the album before going into a heavier musical direction while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing along with the solos and leads also being done in a very melodic style and all of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them.
When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the songs more of a raw feeling. Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with a couple of tracks also adding in a small amount of clear vocals.
The songs also add in a decent mixture of both old school and modern influences along with a couple of tracks also adding in a brief use of dark soundscapes and spoken word parts, whispers and clean playing can also be heard briefly. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover the denial of the usual foundations of the world, the darkest manifestations of human activity and the energies hidden beyond the dark abyss.
In my opinion Cierma are a very great sounding modern and aggressive black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Ciemra" "Call of The Ancestors" "Winter" and "When Eyes Close". 8 out of 10.
