Poland's Teufelsberg has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for more of an old school form of black metal and this is a review of their 2023 album "Pakt mit dem Teufel" which will be released on Halloween by Signal Rex.
Dark sounding synths start off the album before going into a very fast and raw musical direction which also utilizes a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Vocals are mostly tortured yet high pitched sounding sounding black metal screams while most of the tracks are also very long and epic.
Most of the music is very heavily rooted in the 90's era while the riffs also add in a decent amount of melody. Throughout the recording you can also hear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with some angry sounding spoken word parts also being utilized at times and all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them as well as the solos and leads also being done in a very dark yet melodic style when they are utilized..
On this recording Teufelsberg plays a style of black metal that is very old school in the 90's tradition. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are written in a mixture of English and Polish and cover Satanism, Occultism, Devil Worship, Death and Darkness themes.
In my opinion t his is another great sounding recording from Teufelsberg and if you are a fan of old school, occult and satanic black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Der Ruf des Mephistopheles" and "Wpiekłowstąpienie (In Herrlichkeit inmitten der Flammen)". 8 out of 10.
