Dashiem are a solo project from Egypt that plays an occult form of black metal and this is a review of his self released 2023 ep "Invocation Of Malfayosh".
A very ritualistic sounding intro starts off the ep along with some chants and synths before going into a heavier direction. A couple of the tracks are also long and epic in length while the harsh vocals are mostly grim black metal screams and melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very dark yet melodic style while the spoken words also add to the more ritualistic vibe. Synths also mix in with the heavier sections of the songs at times, blast beats and raw tremolo picking can also be heard briefly when the music speeds up and most of the recording sticks to either a slow or mid tempo direction.
Dashiem plays a style of occult black metal that is very ritualistic and mid tempo sounding. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Demonology, Arabian Witchcraft and Middle Eastern Black Magick.
In my opinion Dashiem are a very great sounding occult black metal solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Invocation Of Malfayosh" and "Darkened Rites". 8 out of 10.
