Thulcandra are a band from Germany that plays a melodic mixture of black and death metal and this is a review of t heir 2021 album "A Dying Wish" which will be released on October 29th by Napalm Records.
Acoustic guitars start off the album along with some melodic guitar leads a few seconds later while the riffs also add in a great amount of melody. When the music speeds up a decent amount of blast beats can be heard as well as the music also showing some influences of the classic 90's Swedish style.
Tremolo picking is also added into some of the faster riffing while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams. Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them.
The music also mixing in elements of the more melodic side of death metal along with both acoustic and classical guitars also return on some of the later tracks as well as a couple of brief instrumentals, when synths are utilized they also give the music more of an atmospheric feeling and both of the closing songs are also very long and epic in length. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Death and Darkness themes.
In my opinion Thulcandra are a very great sounding melodic mixture of black and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Funeral Pyre" "Nocturnal Heresy" "A Shining Abyss" and "A Dying Wish". 8 out of 10.
