This is a review of an older recording from Sweden's Svartsyn which showed the music going for a raw, occult and satanic form of black metal and the album was originally released in 2003 and called "Destruction Of Man" which will b e re-issued in october, 2023 by Nomad Snakepit Productions.
Ritualistic soundscapes start off the album before going into more of a fast and raw musical direction which also utilizes a great amount of tremolo picking and blast b eats. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while the vocals are mostly grim sounding black metal screams.
A great portion of the tracks are also very long and epic in length while the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them along with one track also introducing synths onto the album.
On this recording Svartsyn went for more of a traditional, raw, satanic and occult approach to black metal. The production sounds very raw and old school while the lyrics cover Left Hand Path, Luciferian, Satanism, Anti Christianity and the writings of H.P Lovecraft.
In my opinion this was another great sounding recording from Svartsyn and if you are a fan of raw, old school, occult and satanic black metal, you should check out this re-issue. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Archdemon Of Binah" "Devil's image" and "Destruction of man". 8 out of 10.
