Spain's Barbarian Swords has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for an atmospheric mixture of black, sludge and doom metal and this is a review of their 2024 album "Fetid" which will be released on April 26th by Base Record Production.
A very dark yet heavy sound starts off the album while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams. All of t he tracks are also very long and epic in length along with the riffs also adding in a decent amount of melody and the slower sections of the songs also add in elements of sludge and doom metal.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very dark yet melodic style while clear chants can also be heard briefly. Death metal growls can also be heard in certain sections of the recording along with the music also having its atmospheric moments, keyboards are also added on some of the tracks and the whole album also sticks to a slower direction and one song also adds in a small amount of clean playing.
On this recording Barbarian Swords focuses more on a slower and atmospheric mixture of black, sludge and doom metal. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover misanthropy, nihilism and negativity themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from Barbarian Swords and if you are a fan of atmospheric black, sludge and doom metal, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Six Feet Of Justice" and "Not Even light". 8 out of 10.
