Italy's solo project Derhead has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for more of an experimental and avant garde style of black metal and this is a review of his 2025 ep "Irrational II" which was released by Brucia Records.
A very dark and heavy sound starts off the ep before going into a very fast and raw musical direction which also utilizes a great amount of tremolo picking and blast b eats. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams while the riffs also add in a lot of dissonant melodies and all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
At times the music also gets very experimental and avant garde sounding while the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. The recording also has its atmospheric moments along with the solos and leads also being done in a very melodic style and both of the tracks are also very long and epic in length, keyboards and stringed instruments can also be heard briefly and clear vocals are also used on the second song
On this recording Derhead expands on the experimental and avant garde style of black metal tha t he has introduced on previous releases. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover the nature of relationships with some inspiration from F, Dostoevsky's "Demons".
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Derhead and if you are a fan of experimental and avant garde black metal, you should check out this ep. REOMMENDED TRACK "Tired Demons". 8 out of 10.
