This is a review of another recording from Brazil's Diabeelein which also shows the music going for a very raw and melodic form of black metal and this is a review of their 2022 album "Misanthropy Chronicles" which was released by Impaled Records.
Dark soundscapes start off the album before going into a very fast, raw and melodic direction which also utilizes a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams while the solos and leads also add in a lot of melody and the music also mixes in some old school touches.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while growls can also be heard at times. Synths are also added into certain sections of the album along with a great portion of the tracks also being very long and epic in length as well as all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them, one song also adds in a brief use of clean playing and clear vocals and the closing track is an Amen Corner cover.
On this recording Diabeelein brings out a very raw, melodic and traditional style of black metal, The production sounds very raw while the lyrics cover misanthropy, the human condition and philosophical themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from Diabeelein and if you are a fan of raw and melodic black metal, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Morbid Rites" and "When The Pain Encounters The Suffering". 8 out of 10.
