Minas Morgul are a band from Germany that plays a melodic mixture of pagan, black and death metal and this is a review of their 2021 album "Heimkehr" which will be released in April by Trollzorn.
Epic sounding keyboards start off the album and also mixes in with the heavier sections of the music at times. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style while the vocals also bring in a mixture of black metal screams and death metal growls and the music also brings in a great amount of Scandinavian influences.
The riffs also bring in a great amount of melody while the faster sections of the songs also add in a decent amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them along with the songs also adding in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts.
At times the music also gets very atmospheric sounding along with one of the tracks also introducing clean playing onto the album as well as the music also bringing in a great amount of pagan metal elements, melodic vocals can also be heard briefly on a couple of songs and as the album progresses a brief use of spoken word parts and acoustic guitars can also be heard. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics are written in German and cover hope, despair, frenzy, fire, damnation, death, fantasy and mythology themes.
In my opinion Minas Morgul are a very great sounding melodic mixture of pagan, black and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Heimkehr" "Teufel" and "Dein Erwachen". 8 out of 10.
