Pits are a band from Latvia that plays a progressive mixture of black and death metal and this is a review of t heir self released album "Macabre Luxuria" which will be released in 2026.
Clean playing starts off the album before going into a heavier direction while the vocals are mostly grim sounding black metal screams. Elements of death metal a re also utilized quite a bit throughout the recording along with all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them.
At times the music also gets very progressive sounding while the riffs also add in a decent amount of melody. Blast beats and tremolo picking are also added into the faster sections of the songs which also gives the recording more of a raw feeling along with the songs also adding in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts . when guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style
Pits plays a musical style that takes a progressive form of black metal and mixes it with death metal to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while thr lyrics cover dark and philosophical themes.
In my opinion Pits are a very great sounding progressive mixture of black and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Premonition" "Non Licet Bovi" "Dead man's Letter" and "Macabre Luxuria". 8 out of 10.
