Ernte are a duo from Switzerland that has been featured before in this zine and on this recording plays a very modern and aggressive from of black metal and this is a review of his 2024 album "Weltenzerstörer" which will be released in June by Vendetta Records.
A very dark, heavy and melodic sound starts off the album while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams. A great portion of the tracks are also long and epic in length along with the faster sections of the songs also adding in a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats which also gives the music more of a raw feeling.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very chaotic yet melodic style while the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. A couple of tracks also adds in a small amount of clean playing along with the music also having its atmospheric moments, violins can also be heard briefly and one song also adds in a brief use of spoken word parts.
On this recording Ernte brings out a very modern and aggressive style of black metal. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover chosen loneliness and the search for a higher meaning.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Ernte and if you are a fan of modern and aggressive black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Witch (Was Born In Flames)" "Trip To A Solitary Moon" and "Profound Eyes". 8 out of 10.
