This is a review of a split ep between Italy's Malauriu and Sinoath called "Scuru/Symphony Of The Scythe" which will be released in 2025 by Doomentia Records and we will start off the review with Malauriu who returns with an experimental form of black metal.
Their side of the split starts out with rain and thunder sounds along with some synths a few seconds later. Spoken word parts can also be heard briefly before going into a heavier direction while the vocals are mostly grim sounding black metal screams as well as the music also getting very experimental at times, whispered vocals are also added towards the end. The production sounds very professional and the lyrics are written in Italian and cover death and human misery themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding track from Malauriu and if you are a fan of experimental black metal, you should check out their side of the split.
Next up is Sinoath a band that plays a progressive mixture of black and doom metal.
Their side of the split starts out with some clean playing and dark soundscapes before going into a heavier doom metal direction. Synths can also be heard at times while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing as well as the faster sections of the song also adding in a decent amount of blast beats and tremolo picking.
At times the music also gets very progressive sounding and the music is heavily rooted in the 90's era along with the solos and leads also bringing in more of an old school death metal style, chants are also added towards the end. The production sounds very professional and the lyrics cover Darkness themes.
In my opinion Sinoath are a very great sounding progressive mixture of black, doom and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band.
In conclusion I feel this is a very great sounding split and I would recommend it to all fans of Italian black metal. 8 out of 10.
