LaColpa are a band from Italy that has been featured before in this zine and on this recording plays a mixture of black, sludge, doom metal, noise and drone and this is a review of their 2020 album "Post Tenebras Lux" which will be released in December by Brucia Records.
Distorted sounding drones start off the album along with some grim black metal screams a few seconds later while the music also brings in a decent amount of noise elements. A great portion of the tracks are also very long and epic in length as well as all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them.
Dark sounding melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while the slower sections of the songs also add in the heaviness of doom and sludge metal. Growls can also be heard in some parts of the recording along with the music also having its experimental moments as well as one track also adding in some early 20th century music samples and all of the songs also stick to a slower direction, clean playing, spoken word parts and whispered vocals can also be heard on the closing track.
On this recording LaColpa adds more drones into their mixture of black, sludge, doom metal and noise to take their style to another level. The production sounds very dark and heavy while the lyrics cover occultism, darkness and pain themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from LaColpa and if you are a fan of black, sludge, doom metal, drone and noise, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Black Opal" and "Relics".8out of 10.
