Erotica are a solo project from Chicago, Illinois that plays a raw mixture of black metal and dungeon synth with a musical style they refer to as 'keller black metal' and this is a review of her 2024 ep "The undoing" which will be released in April by Fiadh Productions.
A very fast and raw sound starts off the ep along with a great amount of tremolo picking and programmed blast b eats. Vocals are mostly grim sounding black emtal screams while synths also mix in with the heavier sections of the songs as well as the music also capturing a very lo-fi atmosphere at times.
Throughout the recording you can also h ear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while a great portion of the tracks are also very short in length Elements of dungeon synth can also be heard at times and they also bring in a cover of Jethro Tull's "Cross Eyed Mary".
Erotica plays a musical style that takes raw black metal and keeler dungeon synth and mixes them together to create a sound of her own. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover darkness and witchcraft themes.
In my opinion Erotica are a very great sounding mixture of raw black metal and keller dungeon synth and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this solo project. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Everlasting Will Od The Lady Of Lust" and "Buried In Her Nightgown". 8 out of 10.
