Mortis Cruentus are a band from Spain that has been featured before in this zine and plays a very melodic and blackened form of death metal and this is a review of his self released 2023 ep "Destroyers Of Humanity".
A very heavy and melodic sound starts off the ep while the vocals are a mixture of death metal growls and black metal screams. When the music speeds up a decent amount of blast beats and tremolo picking can be heard and a lot of the recording shows a lot of roots in the classic Swedish style.
Symphonic sounds can also be heard in certain sections of the recording while the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style along with one song also adding in a brief use of clean playing.
On this recording Mortis Cruentus adds in a symphonic touch to their melodic blackened death metal style without losing any aggression. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover blood, war and death themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Mortis Cruentus and if you are a fan of melodic and blackened death metal, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACK "In Your Darkness...We Will Rise". 8 out of 10.
