Portugal's solo project Irae has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for an old school and satanic form of black metal and this is a review of his 2026 album "Terror 666" which will be released in December by Signal Rex.
A very dark yet heavy sound starts off the album while the music is also very heavily rooted in the old school era of the genre. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams along with all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them and when t he music speeds up a lot of blast beats can be heard.
When tremolo picking is added into the faster riffing they also give the music more of a raw feeling while the synths also add in a atmospheric touch when they are utilized. Throughout the album you can also hear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with a couple if tracjs also adding in a small amount of clean playing.
Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing and when guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a melodic and old school style when they are utilized. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are written in a mixture of Portuguese and English and cover Satanism and End Of Humanity themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Irae and if you are a fan of old school and satanic black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Fogo Negro" "Order Of the Black Goat" "unholy War" and "Vultures Of Satan". 8 out of 10.
