Executus are a band from Australia that plays a melodic mixture of black and thrash metal and this is a review of their self released 2023 album "The Black Thrones Of Chaos Abandoned".
Clean playing and keyboards start off the album before going into more of a heavier and melodic musical direction. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams while the riffs also add in a lot of thrash emtal elements along with the faster sections of the songs also adding in a lot of blast beats.
Death metal growls can also be heard at times while all of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style along with the songs also adding in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts.
The album also adds in some touches of traditional metal at times along with one song also being an instrumental as well as one track also introducing clean singing onto the album, one track is also long and epic in length. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover science fiction and cosmic horror themes with some inspiration from the writings of H.P Lovecraft.
In my opinion Executus are a very great sounding melodic mixture of black and thrash metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE " The Lurker At The Threshold" "Behold! A Bloodstained Sky" "Invocation of the Abyss" and "The Worlds Grave". 8 out of 10.
