Italy's LaColpa have returned with a new recording which shows the music going for a mixture of dissonant black, sludge, doom meta, experimental, drone and noise and this is a review of their 2024 album "In Absentia Lucis" which was released by Brucia Records.
Clean playing starts off the album while all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them. At times the recording also gets very experimental sounding along with some whispers also being utilized briefly along with some noises and drones also being added into certain sections of the songs.
Elements of sludge and doom metal can also be heard in the slower sections of the songs while the harsh vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams. A lot of the riffing also brings in a very dissonant vibe along with the solos and leads also bringing in more of a distorted style.
Most of the tracks are also very long and epic in length along with some of the music also bringing in more of an improvised style. A small amount of melody can also be heard in some of the guitar riffing and when the album finally speeds up blast beats are also introduced onto the recording as well as one song also adding in a brief use of synths and clear singing. The production sounds very dark and heavy while the lyrics cover negativity and pain.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from LaColpa and if you are a fan of dissonant black, sludge, doom metal, drone, experimental and noise, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Our Vast Loneliness" and "Wher God lives". 8 out of 10.
