Finland's Aegrus has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for a satanic and occult style of black metal and this is a review of their 2023 album "Invoking The Abysmal Night" which will be released in October by Osmose Productions.
A very dark and heavy sound starts off the album while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams. 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 and the music is heavily rooted in t he classic Finnish style.
All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them while the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. Melodies can also be heard in some of the guitar riffing along with the solos and leads also being done in a very melodic style when they are utilized, a couple of tracks are also very long and epic in length and as the album progresses a brief use of clean playing, whispers and clear vocals care also utilized.
On this recording Aegrus remains true to the satanic and occult style of black metal that they have established on previous releases. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Satan, Lucifer and Death.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Aegrus and if you are a fan of satanic and occult black emtal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Invoking The Abysmal Night" "Temple Of Ardent Worship" and "Where The Forest Emanates Death". 8 out of 10.
