Nachash are a band from Norway that has been featured before in this zine and on this recording plays an occult form of black metal with elements of death metal and this is a review of their album "Eschaton Magicks' which will be released in 2025 by Signal Rex.
A very fast and raw sound starts off the album along with a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams and the songs also mix in a lot of old school touches as well as remaining very modern at the same time.
Elements of death metal are also utilized quite a bit throughout the recording while the riffs also add in a decent amount of melody. The songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with the solos and leads also being done in a very dark yet melodic style when they are utilized as well as some of the tracks also being very long and epic in length and synths can also be heard briefly.
On this recording Nachash brings in more of a traditional style of occult black metal as well as adding some of the heavier side of death metal to create a very dark and aggressive release. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover death, darkness, necromancy and occult themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Nachash and if you are a fan of occult black metal with elements of death metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Stygian Nightmare" "Eschaton Magicks" and "Wherein The Devil Dwell". 8 out of 10.
