Germany's Suffering Souls has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for a symphonic form of black metal and this is a review of their 2025 album "Twilight Ripping Souls" which is a re-recorded version of the album released in 2000 with t he same name along with a re-recorded version of their 1999 ep "Cries Of Silence" and 2 live tracks which will b e released in December by Solistitum Records.
Symphonic sounding keyboards and orchestration starts off the album which also mixes in with the heavier sections of the songs at times. When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard while the riffs also add in a great amount of melody and the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams.
Spoken words are also utilized at times while the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. A couple of the tracks are also very long and epic in length along with all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them as well as the solos and leads also being done in a very melodic style, clear singing is also added on a few songs as well as the album also adding in a couple of instrumentals.
On this recording Suffering Souls takes their material from 1999 and 2000 and re-records them for the modern as well as remaking to true to the old school style of symphonic black metal which was a huge part of the earlier recordings. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Satanism, Anti Christianity, Death and Misanthropy themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Suffering Souls and if you are a fan of symphonic black metal, you should check out this re-recorded album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Throne Unite Dimensions" "Summon The Infernal King" "The Source Of Blasphemy" and "I'm The Essence of Sin". 8 out of 10.
