Dvorac are a solo project from Croatia that plays a very progressive form of black metal and this is a review of his 2023 album "On The Wings Of Unknown" which was released by Der neue Weg Productions.
Dark soundscapes start off the album along with some clean playing and synths a few seconds later which also takes the music into more of a progressive direction before going into a heavier direction. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style while a great portion of the tracks are also very long and epic in length. The album also has its atmospheric moments and when t he music speeds up a great amount of blast beats and tremolo picking can be heard which also gives the songs more of a raw feeling.
Acoustic guitars are also utilized at times along with the songs also adding in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. Touches of shoegaze and post rock are also added into certain sections of the album. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover death and nature themes.
In my opinion Dvorac are a very great sounding atmospheric and progressive black metal solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Black Wall Of Sleep" and "Witch of The Moon". 8 out of 10.
