Belarus's solo project Pa Vesh En has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for more of a raw and depressive mixture of black and funeral doom metal and this is a review of his 2023 album "Martyrs" which will be released in May by Iron Bonehead Productions.
Ambient style synths and soundscapes start off the album and also mixes in with the heavier sections of the songs at times. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are done in a very dark yet melodic style while some of the vocals also add in more of a bestial growling approach that is mixed down low in the mix.
Black metal screams can also be heard quite a bit throughout the recording while the album also captures a very lo-fi atmosphere. When the music speeds up a decent amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the songs more of a raw feeling along with the slower sections of the tracks also adding in elements of funeral doom metal.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mi paced and fast parts along with some depressive screams also being utilized at times. All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them as well as a couple of the tracks also being very long and epic in length, clean vocals and spoken word parts are also added on the closing track. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are divided into 3 different acts and cover the French film "Martyrs".
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Pa Vesh En and if you are a fan of raw and depressive black and funeral doom metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The House Of Pain" "Among A Stir Of Echoes" and " Le Fantôme de Cette Madame". 8 out of 10.
