Aldheorte are a duo from Los Angeles, California that plays an orthodox form of black metal and this is a review of their 2026 album "The Wild Divine" which will be released in march by Solistitum Records.
A very dark yet heavy sound starts off the album while the riffs also add in a great amount of melody. 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 while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams.
Most of the music is also very heavily rooted in the old school era of the genre while the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. Growls are also utilized at times along with a couple of songs also adding in a small amount of clean playing, all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them and when guitar solos and leads are finally utilized they are also done in a very melodic style.
Aldheorte plays a style of black metal that is very orthodox and traditional sounding adding in a modern touch to an old school aggression. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover blasphemy, fury, grief and mysticism themes.
In my opinion Aldheorte are a very great sounding orthodox black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Vanity" "Ouroboros" and "The Offering". 8 out of 10.
