Qurun are a band from Singapore that has had music reviewed before in this zine and plays a very raw form of black metal and this is a review of their self released 2026 demo "Iron Horns Of Dominion".
A very dark sounding intro starts off the ep along with a brief use of synths and choirs as well as some clean playing and spoken words before going into a heavier direction. When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the songs more of a raw feeling.
Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams while the music is also very heavily rooted in the old school era of the genre, Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing 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 and all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
Qurun plays a style of black metal that is very raw and aggressive in the classic 90's tradition. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Occultism, Mysticism and Blasphemy themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Qurun and if you are a fan of raw black metal, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACK "I Am Ifrit". 8 out of 10.
