Luna Mortuus are a solo project from Massachusetts that plays a very raw, atmospheric and depressive form of black metal and this is a review of his 2024 ep "It Only Gers Worse..." which was released by Elf Eggs.
A very dark, heavy and atmospheric sound starts off the ep while synths are also utilized at times as well as one of the tracks also being an instrumental. Dark sounding melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing along with the vocals being mostly high pitched depressive black metal.
When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the recording more of a raw feeling. The songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with a couple of tracks also adding in a small of clean playing.
Luna Mortuus plays a style of black metal that is very atmospheric, lo-fi, raw and depressive sounding. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover suicide, despair, astral projection and occultism themes.
In my opinion Luna Mortuus are a very great sounding raw, atmospheric and depressive black metal solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Proclaiming Mortuus" and "Lilith's Child". 8 out of 10.
