Germany's Sulphur Aeon has returned with a new recording which continues the melodic style of blackened death metal f rom their previous releases and this is a review of their 2023 album "Seven Crowns And Seven Seals" which will be released in October by Van Records.
A very dark, heavy and melodic sound starts off the album while whispers can also be heard briefly. Blast beats and tremolo picking are also added into the faster sections of the songs along with the vocals also bringing in a mixture of death metal growls and black metal screams and all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while dark soundscapes and synths are also added in certain sections of the recording. Clean playing and acoustic guitars are also added on some of the songs along with a brief use of whispered vocals and a great portion of the tracks are also very long and epic in length, clear vocals can also be heard at times and the music also has its cinematic moment.
On this recording Sulphur Aeon goes for more of an atmospheric and melodic blackened death emtal direction. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cove r Lovecraftian horror themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Sulphr Aeon and if you are a fan of melodic blackened death metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUD E "Hammer From The Howling Void" "Arcane Cambrian Sorcery" and "Beneath The Ziggurats". 8 out of 10.
