Condra are a band from Chile that plays an anti cosmic and melodic form of blackened death metal and this is a review of their 2022 album "Aeonic Tempest From The Abyss" which will b e released in October by Tragedy Productions.
Rain sounds and classical guitars start off the album before going into more of a heavier direction while also introducing melodic guitar solos and leads onto the recording. When the music speed s up a decent amount of tremolo picking and blast b eats can b e heard and the music is heavily rooted in the classic Swedish style.
Vocals are mostly black metal screams while the music also adds in a great amount of melodic death emtal elements. Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with the music also showing an influence of the early Dissection era as well as the classical guitars also making a return in certain sections of the recording.
Clean vocals can also be heard briefly along with a couple of the tracks also being instrumentals instrumentals. One song also adds in a brief use of spoken word parts and a couple of the songs are also long and epic in length. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Anti Cosmic Satanism and Occultism themes.
In my opinion Condra are a very great sounding melodic and anti cosmic blackened death metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Aeonic Tempest From The Abyss" "Spectres of A Dying Soul" and "The Omen". 8 out of 10.
