Greece's Karma Violens has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for a melodic mixture of black, death and thrash metal and this is a review of their self released 2021 album "Mount Of The Congregation" which will be released in April.
A synth orientated intro starts off the album along with a brief use of operatic voices before going into a faster direction which also introduces blast beats onto the recording. Vocals are a mixture of thrash style shouts and death metal growls and the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style.
The riffs also add in a decent amount of melody while the songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them along with the synths also making a return on some of the later tracks.
Black metal screams can also be heard in certain sections of the music and tremolo picking can also be heard in some of the faster riffing along with one of the songs also introducing clean playing onto the album, as the recording progresses a brief use of stringed instruments can also be heard as well as one song also adding in a brief use of spoken word parts and melodic female vocals. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover world, creation and nature themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Karma Violens and if you are a fan of melodic black, death and thrash metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Embrace" "My Storm Upon You" "Mount Of The Congregation" and "Light Beyond the Event Horizon". 8 out of 10.
