France's solo project Mutillation has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for more of a raw and aggressive school form of black metal and this is a review of his 2024 album "Black Metal Cult" which was released by Osmose Productions.
A very dark yet heavy sound starts off the album while all of the tracks are also very long and epic in length. When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the songs more of a raw feeling and the vocals are mostly grim yet high pitched sounding black metal screams.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while the riffs also add in a small amount of melody. Most of the music brings in more of a 90's and 2000's vibe mixed in with some more modern aggression along with all of the musical instruments on the album also having a very powerful sound to them.
When guitar solos and leads are finally utilized they are also done in a very dark yet melodic style and one song also adds in a brief use of clean playing and chants along with the closing track also adding in a brief use of spoken word parts. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover black metal, devil worship, evilness, death, demonology, darkness and anti Islamic themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Mutiilation and if you are a fan of this solo project, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "From The Plains Of Ice And Death" and "The Fall Of Islam". 8/5 out of 10.
