Veriteras are a band from Seattle, Washington that plays a melodic mixture of black and death metal and this is a review of their self released 2024 album "The Dark Horizon" which will be released in March.
A very heavy and melodic sound starts off the album while the synths also add in a symphonic touch when they are utilized. When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard along with the vocals being mostly black metal screams and spoken word parts can also be heard briefly.
Elements of death metal are also utilized quite a bit throughout 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 all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them.
The music also adds in a lot of 90's era Swedish influences as well as remaining modern at the same time along with one song also introducing clear vocals onto the album, acoustic guitars can also be heard briefly. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover darkness themes.
In my opinion Veriteras are a very great sounding melodic mixture of black and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. ECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Celestial Darkness" "Sanctuary" "Blinding" and "Light in The Darkness". 8 out of 10.
