France's Aodon has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for an atmospheric form of post black metal and this is a review of their 2026 album "Khamsin" which will be released in November by Transcending Obscurity Records.
A very dark yet heavy sound starts off the album while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams. Melodies are also added into a lot of the guitar riffing along with a great portion of the tracks also being very long and epic in length and when the music speeds up a lot of blast beats can be heard.
When tremolo picking is added into the fast riffing they give the music more of raw feeling while the album also adds in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic post metal style along with the recording also having its atmospheric moments, clean playing can also be heard on some of the tracks.
On this recording Aodon brings out a very modern, aggressive and atmospheric style of post black metal. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics are written in French and cover turmoil and anguish themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Aodon and if you are a f an of atmospheric post black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Les torrents" "Khamsin" and "Dans I'oubli". 8 out of 10.
