Manic Abraxis are a band from Maine that plays a mixture of black, doom, stoner, thrash metal and punk and this is a review of their self released 2022 album "Foreign Winds" which will be released in September.
A very hard and heavy stoner metal sound starts off the album while the riffs also add in a decent amount of melody. Synths can also be heard at times along with the vocals also b ringing in more of a first wave black metal style as well as the riffs also mixing in elements of thrash metal and the raw energy of punk rock is also added in certain sections of the recording.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they also remain true to an old school style while growls are also added in some of the vocals. Touches of doom metal are also added in the slower sections of the songs along with some spoken word parts also being utilized briefly as well as the music also having its psychedelic moments.
Clear vocals are also added on one the tracks along with some blast beats are also added into the faster sections of the album as well as one song also introducing clean playing onto the recording, some of t he riffing adds in touches of classic metal and throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Occultism themes.
In my opinion Manic Abraxis are a very great sounding mixture of black, doom, stoner, thrash metal and punk and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Red Camo Rock" "Foreign Winds" and "Black Destrier". 8 out of 10.
