Hibernum are a solo project from Croatia that plays a very traditional form of black metal and this is a review of his 2025 album "Djavo" which was released as a joint effort between Satanath and InsArt Records.
A very dark yet heavy sound starts off the album while the faster sections of the songs also add in a great amount of blast beats and tremolo picking which also gives the music more of a raw feeling. Vocals are mostly grim sounding black metal screams and the recording is more rooted in the mid 90's to early 2000's era but modern at the same time.
Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. Clear singing can also be heard at times along with the solos and leads also adding in a very aggressive yet melodic style when they are utilized and the whole album also sticks to a heavier direction, a couple of tracks are also very long and epic in length.
Hibernum plays a style of black metal that is very fast, aggressive and traditional sounding. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Death, Occultism and Satanism themes.
In my opinion Hibernum are a very great sounding fast, aggressive and traditional black metal solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this recording. RCOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Djavo" "Belial - The Lord Of The Earth" and "Against Men, Against Gods, Against The World". 8 out of 10.
