I C No are an international duo with embers from France and Switzerland that plays a contemporary form of black metal and this is a review of their 2024 ep "L'enfer des autres, c'est moi" which was released by Crypt Of Dr. Gore.
Raw tremolo picking starts off the ep along with some high pitched black metal screams a few seconds later while growls can also be heard at times. All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them as well as the riffs also adding in a decent amount of melody.
When the music speeds up a great amount of blast beats can also be heard while the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic sound to them. Elements of post metal can also be heard at times along with the songs also adding in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and the ep closes with a cover of Tormentor's "Elisabeth Bathory".
I C No plays a musical style that takes the raw and post sides of the black metal genre and mixes them together to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are written in French and cover politics, social issues and climate change.
In my opinion I C No are a very great sounding contemporary black metal duo and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Empaler le mai'tre de la melee" and "Elisabeth Bathory". 8 out of 10.
