Devorzhum are a band from Poland that has had music reviewed before in this zine and on this recording goes for a very aggressive and atmospheric of black metal and this is a review of their 2026 ep "O królestwie, którego nigdy nie było" which will be released in April by Via Nocturna.
Synths start off the ep while also adding voices and war sounds in the background before introducing melodic guitar solos and leads onto the recording. All of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them along with the riffs also adding in a lot of melody and the vocals are mostly grim sounding black metal s creams.
When the music speeds up a great amount of blast beats can be heard while the ep also brings in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. Death metal growls are also utilized at times along with some of the tracks also being long and epic in length, when tremolo picking is added into the faster riffing they also give the recording more of a raw feeling as well as the songs also adding in some atmospheric touches, spoken words can also be heard briefly.
On this recording Devorzhum goes for a very modern and aggressive style of atmospheric black metal as well as adding in elements of death metal to create a very dark and heavy release. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics are written in Polish and is a concept album and covers suffering, death and revenge in a blood soaked Middle East.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Devorzhum and if you are a fan of modern, aggressive and atmospheric black metal, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Czarne Ptaki Pazdziernika" and "Czas Zemsty". 8 out of 10.
