Germany's Antrisch have returned with a new recording which shows the music going for an atmospheric and melodic form of black metal with elements of djent, doom metal and dark ambient and this is a review of their 2026 album "Expedition III: Renitenzpfad" which will be released in March by AOP Records.
Samples and spoken words start off the album along with some clean playing a few seconds later before going into a very fast and raw musical direction which also utilizes a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams and the riffs also add in a lot of melody.
A great portion of the tracks are also very long and epic in length while the synths also have the music more of an atmospheric feeling. Elements of doom metal are also add into the slower sections of the recording and the album also adds in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts.
All of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them along with the mid tempo sections also adding in touches of djent. Some of the clean sections also add in traces of dark ambient, spoken words and clean playing also return on later tracks as well as the solos and leads also being done in a very melodic style. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics are written in German and cover the conquistador Lupe de Aguirre.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Antrisch and if you are a fan of atmospheric black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Der baskische Wolf" and "Verschanzi - Pereneilandterror". 8 out of 10.
