This is a review of a collaboration between U.S.A's solo project Sutekh Hexen and Hissing which shows the 2 projects mixing their 2 different styles together and brings out an experimental mixture of black, death metal, ambient and noise and this is a review of their 2026 album "SH:HS" which will be released in June as a joint effort Cyclic Law and Phage Tapes.
Harsh noises start off the album while the vocals also add in a mixture of black metal screams and death metal growls. Both of the tracks are also very long and epic in length along with the songs also adding in elements of dark ambient when they are utilized and the whole recording is done in an improvised style..
At times the music also goes into more of an experimental direction while whispered vocals can also be heard briefly. The album also has its ritualistic moments along with the drums also giving the recording more of a brutal touch when they are introduced and both of the tracks also sound very different from each other, blast beats can also be heard briefly.
On this recording Sutekh Hexen and Hissing take black, death metal, noise, experimental, ambient and original and mix them together to create something very original. The production sounds very dark and lo-fi while the lyrics cover Occultism and Rituals.
In my opinion this is a very great sounding collaboration between Sutekh Hexen and Hissing and if you are a fan of black, death metal, noise, experimental, ambient and ritual, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACK "SEA". 8 out of 10.
