Sri Lanka's solo project Sapientia Ov Atlantis has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for more of a satanic and occult form of black metal and this is a review of his self released 2023 album "Agwaati With Ancient Rites".
Synths which also mix in with the heavier sections of the songs start off the album along with a brief use of spoken word parts. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while the vocals are mostly grim sounding black metal screams and the solos and leads are also done in a melodic style.
Most of the music is very heavily rooted in t he 90's era while clear vocals can also be heard on one of the tracks. Death metal growls can also be heard in certain sections of the recording along with the faster sections of the songs also adding in a decent amount of blast beats as well as the album also having its symphonic moments, all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them and one track is also an instrumental.
On this recording Sapientia Ov Atlantis goes for more of a satanic and occult style of black metal that is very heavily rooted in the early 90's era. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Satanism, Hermitic Principles, Demonology,, Cosmic Rituals, Astral Travel, Egyptian/Sumerian Gods, Atlantis and Ancient Ritual Summonings.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Sapienttia Ov Atlantis and if you are a f an of old school occult and satanic black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Aye The Image ov Sun" "Summoning My Dukes Of Hell" "Demons of Trees Manifest The Earth" and "Ritual of Death Sacrifice For Apophis". 8 out of 10.
