Greece/Scotland's solo project Winter Eternal has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for an old school and melodic mixture of black and death metal and this is a review of his album 2026 "Unveiled Nightsky" which will be released in February by Hells Headbangers Records.
A very fast and raw sound starts off the album along with a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Melodies are also added into some of the recording while all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them and the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams.
Most of the music is very heavily rooted in the mid 90's Swedish black/death emtal era while the songs also add 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 along with one track also adding in a brief use of spoken words as well as a couple of tracks also adding in a small amount of acoustic guitars and clean playing before return back to a heavier direction, stringed instruments are also added on the outro.
On this recording Winter Eternal goes back to the mid 90's era of Swedish melodic black/death metal. The production sounds very raw and old school while the lyrics cover Mythology and Folklore themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Winter Eternal and if you are a fan of melodic black/death metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Born of Winter's Breath" "Unveiled Nightsky" and "Echoes of A Fallen Crown". 8 out of 10.
