Achryma are a band from Belgium that plays an atmospheric form of post black metal and this is a review of their self released 2026 ep "Hollowlight".
Synths and acoustic guitars start off the ep before going into more of a heavier and melodic direction while the music also has its atmospheric moments. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams along with both of the tracks also being very long and epic in length and the solos and leads add in a lot of melody and post metal elements.
Growls are also utilized at times while the ep is very heavily rooted in the modern era of the genre. When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the recording more of a raw feeling and the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts.
Achryma plays a style of post black metal that is very atmospheric and aggressive sounding. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover sorrow, longing and anguish themes.
In my opinion Achryma are a very great sounding atmospheric post black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Hollowlight". 8 out of 10.
