Archbeheth are a band from Romania that plays aa depressive form of black metal and this is a review of their self released 2024 album "Corruption".
Clean playing which also returns on later starts off the album before going into a heavier direction while spoken word parts can also be heard on a few tracks. Vocals are mostly high pitched depressive black metal screams along with the riffs also adding in a small amount of melody at times.
A couple of the tracks are also instrumentals while the solos and leads are also done in a very dark yet melodic style when they are utilized. Ambient style synths are also introduced on a couple of songs along with one track also being over 15 minutes in length, clear vocals can also be heard briefly and the whole album also sticks to a slower direction.
Archedeleth plays a style of black metal that is very slow and depressive sounding as well as mixing in elements of dark ambient to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover hatred and depression themes.
In my opinion Archbeheth are a very great sounding depressive black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Mary's Letter" "Dolor (5 Stages Of Grief)" "I Use Alcohol To Sleep" and "Warfare". 8 out of 10.
