Greece's Acheontas has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for an occult style of black metal and this is a review of their 2026 ep "For The Blood of Tiamat - Praxis I - 30 Years Anniversary Of Magick and Metamosphois" which will be released in October by Osmose Productions.
A very fast and raw sound starts off the ep along with a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very dark yet melodic style while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams and the riffs also add in a lot of melody.
Spoken words can also be heard at times while the ep also adds in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. Most of the tracks are also very long and epic in length along with the recording also having its atmospheric moments and the vocals also add in more of an angry shouting style on some of the songs, synths are also added towards the end and the music also adds in some ritualistic touches, whispers and clear singing.
On this recording Acherontas brings out a very aggressive, atmospheric and traditional style of occult black metal. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover the primordial mysteries of the blood and the great mother Tiamat.
In my opinion this is another great sounding from Acherontas and if you are a fan of occult black metal, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Crowned In The Higher Self" and "For The Blood Of Tiamat". 8 out of 10.
