Velzevul are a band from Russia that plays a very symphonic form of black metal and this is a review of their 2025 album "Pandemonium" which was released as a joint effort between Satanath Records and More Hate Productions.
A very apocalyptic sound starts off the album along with some symphonic sounding keyboards and choirs a few seconds later which also mixes in with the heavier sections of the songs. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams while all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast b eats can be heard while the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. Growls are also utilized at times along with the solos and leads also being done in a very melodic style when they are utilized, melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing.
Velzevul plays a style of black metal that is very symphonic in the mid 90's tradition. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Demonology, Luciferian, Anti Christian and Darkness themes.
In my opinion Vezevul are a very great sounding symphonic black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Nuclear Snow" "The Insignificance Of The Universe" and "The Valley of Shadows". 8 out of 10.
