Italy's The Magik Way has returned with a recording which shows the music going for a mixture of ambient, ritual, experimental, black and doom metal and this is a review of their 2022 album "Dracula(25 Years Anniversary)" which will be released in October by my Kingdom Music.
A very experimental and avant garde sound starts off the album while also introducing keyboards onto the recording which also mixes in with the darker sections of the songs at times. Clean playing can also be heard in certain sections of the recording and some tracks also add in female vocals.
At times the music also gets very ritualistic sounding while the songs also bring in the atmosphere of a horror movie soundtrack. Touches of ambient are also added into some parts of the recording along with the male vocals also adding in a mixture of clear singing and grim black metal screams and the slower sections of the songs also bring in elements of doom metal as well as the spoken word parts also enhancing the occult side of the music when they are utilized, melodic guitar leads can also b e heard briefly.
On this recording The Magik Way takes ambient, ritual, experimental, black and doom metal and mixes them together to create a very diverse recording. The production sounds very dark while the lyrics are based upon Bram Stoker's "Dracula'.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from The Magik Way and if you are a fan of ambient, ritual, experimental, black and doom metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Castel Dracula" "Lucy" and "Van Helsing". 8 out of 10.
