Spectral Wound are a band from Montreal, Quebec, Canada that plays a very raw, suicidal, melodic, cold and old school form of black metal and this is a review of their 2024 album "Songs of Blood And Mire" which will be released in August by Profound Lore Records.
Raw tremolo picking starts off the album while all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them. A great portion of t he tracks are also long and epic in length along with the vocals being mostly high pitched black metal screams and the faster sections of the songs also add in a lot of blast beats.
Melodies are also added into a lot of the guitar riffing while the music is also very heavily influenced by the Scandinavian style. Throughout the recording you can also hear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with the guitar solos and leads also being done in a very melodic style when they are utilzied and acoustic guitars are also added on the closing track.
Spectral Wound plays a style of black emtal t hat is very raw, cold, melodic and old school in the classic Scandinavian style mixed in with some more modern touches. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover darkness, death, nature, suicide and occultism themes.
In my opinion Spectral Wound are a very great sounding raw, cold, melodic and old school black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Fevers And Suffering" "The Horn Marauding" and Twelve Moons In hell". 8 out of 10.
