Greece's Dizziness have returned with a new recording which shows the music going for a very aggressive form of black metal and this is a review of their self released 2024 album "Abhorrent Flickering Of Obscurity".
A very dark, melodic and heavy sound starts off the album while synths can also be heard briefly before going into a very fast and raw musical direction which also utilizes a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams and some of the riffs also add in dissonant touches.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while the songs also mix in both modern and old school influences. All of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them along with some spoken word samples also being utilized on a couple of tracks.
Angry shouts can also be heard at times along with a couple of the tracks also being very long and epic in length, synths also return in certain sections of the album as well as one song also being an instrumental. Clear singing can also be heard briefly and there are also some session vocals from members of Bessat, Melan Selas and Temple Of Evil. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover mysticism and darkness themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Dizziness and if you are a fan of aggressive and traditional black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Into Nullity" and "A Limping Pilgrim". 8 out of 10.
