Germany's solo project Cult Of Extinction have returned with a new recording which shows the music going for a bestial mixture of war, black and death metal and this is a review of his album "Nightmare Ascension" which will be released in 2025 by Winter Demons.
A very fast, raw and brutal war metal sound starts off the album along with a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Vocals are a mixture of high pitched black metal screams and bestial growls while the music also mixes in a lot of 90's era death metal influences and the solos and leads are also done in more of a chaotic style.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts While all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them. on some of the tracks the solos and leads also add in a small amount of dark sounding melodies and most of the album sticks to a very raw yet brutal direction.
On this recording Cult of Extinction remains true to the bestial black/death and war metal style he has established on previous releases. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover death and human extinction themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Cult of Extinction and if you are a fan of war and bestial black/death metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Blood Upon The Cosmic Veil" "Sorrow of The Exalted One" and "All Cycles End". 8 out of 10.
