Marlugubre are a solo project from Italy that plays a very atmospheric and progressive form of post black metal with elements of death metal and this is a review of his 2025 album "Per Amor Nymphae" which will be released in February by Dusktone.
Clean playing which also returns on later songs start off the album before going into a very fast and raw musical direction which also utilizes a great amount of tremolo picking and blast b eats which also gives the recording more of a raw feeling while the music also has its progressive moments.
Vocals are mostly angry sounding black metal screams mixed in with some death metal growls while all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them. At times the music also gets very atmospheric sounding along with some synths also being added into certain sections of the recording.
Throughout the album you can also hear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with the solos and leads also being done in a very melodic post metal style. Female vocals can also be heard on some songs as well as one song also adding in a brief use of stringed instruments, acoustic guitars are also added on a few tracks and spoken words can also be heard briefly. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Greek Mythology.
In my opinion Marlugubre are a very great sounding atmospheric and progressive post black metal solo project with elements of death metal and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Beloved Scylla" "She Nigh His Death" and "Like A Dim Moonlight In Her Heart". 8 out of 10.
