Tele.S.Therion are a band from an unknown location that plays a musical style they refer to as 'acousmatic black metal' and this is a review of their 2017 album "Luzifers Abschied" which was released by Minotauro Records.
Avant garde sounds start off the album and they also add in a touch of underground classical music along with some touches of noise and experimental and whispered ritualistic chants can also be heard in the background at times and most of the tracks are very long and epic in length.
After awhile the chants start utilize more of a melodic tone along with a very grim black metal edge and stringed instruments are also utilized at times and after awhile drum beats are added onto the recording along with some evil screams and demonic voices and at times synths and saxophones are added into some parts of the music and when percussion is utilized it gives the music more of a ritualistic and shamanistic feeling.
Tele.S.Therion plays a musical style that takes black metal without the electric guitars and mixes it with avant garde and experimental to create something very original, the production sounds very dark while the lyrics are based upon the fourth act of Karlheinz Stockhausen's opera "Samstung aus Licht (Saturday From Light).
In my opinion Tele.S.Therion are a very great sounding and original mixture of black metal, experimental and avant garde and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Periode V -VII" and "Periode X -XII". 8 out of 10.
