Germany's duo Mavorim has returned with a new recording which continues the stark and austere style of black metal from previous releases and this is a review of their 2023 album "Ab Amitia Pulsae" which will be released in April by Purity Through Fire.
Dark sounding keyboards and synths start off the album and also mixes in with the heavier sections of the songs at times. When the music speeds up a decent amount of tremolo picking and blast b eats can b e heard which also gives the music more of a raw feeling and the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams.
Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style. Clear vocals can also be heard in certain sections of the recording along with the album also having its atmospheric moments and the songs also add in a good mixture of both old and modern influences.
Throughout the album you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with some songs also adding in a decent amount of clean playing onto the recording and some of the tracks are also long and epic in length, acoustic guitars can also be heard briefly. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are written in German and cover death, hate, murder and paranormal activities.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Mavorim and if you are a fan of raw and atmospheric black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Ein Zerrbild aller Leiden" " Zerinne im Nichts" "Unter den Mühlen der Zeit" and " Erlischt für immer nun das Licht ". 8 out of 10.
