Atavistia are a band from Vancouver B.C, Canada that plays a melodic and symphonic mixture of black, death and folk metal and this is a review of their 2023 album "Cosmic Warfare" which will be released in April by Blood Blast Distribution.
Symphonic sounding synths start off the album and also mixes in with the heavier sections of the songs at times. When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast b eats can be heard while the riffs also add in a great amount of melody and 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 while t he solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style. Death metal growls can also b e heard at times along with one of the tracks also adding in a brief use of spoken word parts and clear vocals can also be heard in certain sections of the recording.
Choirs can also b e heard briefly along with most of the tracks also being very long and epic in length. as well as the songs also adding in elements of Scandinavian folk music. and as the album progress a brief use of acoustic guitars and female vocals can also be heard. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover nature, space and ancient Norse culture.
In my opinion Atavastia are a very great sounding symphonic and melodic mixture of black, death and folk metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Cosmic Warfare" and "Forgotten Silence". 8 out of 10.
