Geisterfaust are a band from Germany that plays a blackened form of sludge metal and this is a review of their 2022 ep "Servile Mirrors Of Anomosity" which will be released on April 29th as a joint effort between Morbid And Miserable and Altstadtwolf Records.
A very clean yet distorted sound starts off the ep before introducing high pitched black metal screams onto the recording which also takes the music into a heavier direction. Elements of sludge metal can also be heard in the slower sections of the songs and when the music speeds up a decent amount of blast beats can also be heard.
Growls are also added into certain sections of the recording while dark sounding melodies and tremolo picking can also be heard in some of the guitar riffing. The songs also add in 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 and the closing track is also very long and epic in length.
Geisterfaust plays a musical style that takes black and sludge metal and mixes them together to create a sound of t heir own. The production sounds very dark and heavy along with all of the songs also being recorded live while the lyrics cover dark afflictions and unrestrained turmoil themes.
In my opinion Geisterfaust are a very great sounding blackened sludge metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Infinite Dream" and "Doorless Doorway". 8 out of 10.
