Ohio's Plaguewielder have returned with a new recording which shows the music going for a mixture of post black, gothic and heavy metal and this is a review of their self released album "In Dust And Ash" which will be released sometime in 2024.
Clean playing and atmospheric soundscapes start off the album while synths can also be heard at times. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic post metal style along with all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them and the vocals are done in more of an angry black metal style
Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while the clear vocals also add in a touch of gothic metal. When the music speeds up a decent amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the songs more of a raw feeling along with some of the solos and leads also bringing in elements of traditional metal and most of the album also sticks to more of a mid tempo direction, synths are also added towards the end.
On this recording Plagueweilder take post black, gothic and traditional metal and mixes them together to create a very diverse album. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover the forgotten working class.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Plagueweilder and if you are a fan of post black, gothic and heavy metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Spaces" "Manifest" and "Ash". 8 out of 10.
