Poland's Gruzja has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for more of an avant garde and experimental form of black metal and this is a review of their self released 2023 album "Koniec Wakacji" which will be released in October.
A very heavy and aggressive sound starts off the album while the vocals are mostly angry sounding black metal screams. All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them along with the clear singing also giving the songs more of an avant garde vibe when they are utilized.
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. Keyboards can also be heard in certain sections of the recording along with some of the tracks also adding in a good amount of spoken word parts.
The songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts, the music also has its experimental moments and angry shouts and growls can also are also added into certain sections of the recording along with one song also introducing industrial style beats onto the album and when guitar solos and leads are finally added into the music they are done in more of a melodic style. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics are written in Polish and cover the folklore of Sudan and Sosnowiec.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Gruzja and if you are a fan of avant garde and experimental black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Jerusalem Shore" "poczytaj mi tato" "koniec wakacji" and "Kciuk cel pal". 8 out of 10.
