Poland's solo project Temple of Decay has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for an old school mixture of black and death metal and this is a review of his 2026 album "Profanus" which was released by Old Temple.
War samples start off the album before going into a heavier direction while the vocals also add in a lot of high pitched black metal screams. Some of the tracks are also very long and epic in length along with some melodies also being added into the guitar riffing at times and all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast b eats can be heard which also gives the recording more of a raw feeling,. Spoken words can also be heard on a few tracks along with the music also being very heavily rooted in the old school era of the genre, synths are also introduced on one song
The album also adds in a great amount of death metal elements as well as adding in a few growls and a couple of songs also brings in a small amount of Gregorian chants and clear singing.. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are written in Polish and cover Anti Religion, Blasphemy and Death themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from Temple Of Decay and if you are a fan of black and death metal, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Chwalmy śmierć (Hail To Death)" and "Miłosierdzie". 8 out ofr 10.
