Netherlands's solo project Funeral Winds has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for a raw, old school, occult and satanic form of black metal and this is a review of his 2024 album "333" which will be released in February by Osmose Productions.
Wind sounds 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 grim yet high pitched sounding black metal screams while the music is also very heavily rooted in the 90's era and all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
Throughout the recording you can also h ear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while a couple of tracks are also very long and epic in length. A small amount of melody can also be heard in the guitar riffing at times along with the guitar leads also being done in a very old school yet melodic style when they are utilized and the whole recording also sticks to a heavier direction as well as the closing track also getting very ritualistic sounding.
On this recording Funeral Winds remains true to the raw and old school style of black metal that he has established on previous releases. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Satanism, Occultism, Thelema, Death, Darkness, Hate and War themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Funeral Winds and if you are a fan of raw, old school, occult and satanic black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Eternal Nightmare" "Forever Cursed And Bound" and "Conjuration Of The Blind One". out of 10.
