Belarus's Pa Vesh En has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for more of a raw and lo-fi form black metal and this is a review of his 2023 album "Catacombs" which will be released in November by Inferna Profundus Records.
A very dark yet heavy sound starts off the album while you can also hear all of the musical instruments that are present on the recording. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams along with the solos and leads also being done in a very melodic style when they are utilized and the music also adds in touches of minimalism.
When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast b eats can be heard which also gives the album more of a raw feeling. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing along with the songs also adding in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts as well as some of the vocals also adding in influences of dsbm.
All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them along with the music also capturing a very lo-fi atmosphere at times as well as the album also has its atmospheric and experimental moments. The production sounds very dark, raw and lo-fi while the lyrics cover death, darkness and occultism themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Pa Vesh En and if you are a fan of raw and lo-fi black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Call of The Dead" "Chalice of Blood" "Damnation And The Witch" and "Walks With The Dead". 8 out of 10.
