Haunted Plasma are a band from Finland that plays a psychedelic form of black metal with elements of techno and this is a review of their 2024 album "I" which will be released in May by Svart Records.
Sci-fi orientated synths start off the album along with some clean playing a few seconds later before adding in some spoken word parts. Touches of techno and krautrock can also be heard at times and also mixes in with the heavier sections of the songs while most of the tracks are also very long and epic in length
Clear singing can also be heard quite a bit throughout the album while the songs also add in a great amount of programmed beats. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very dark yet melodic style along with the music also having its psychedelic moments and mixing in the heaviness of black metal, clean playing, harsh screams and noises can also be heard briefly.
Haunted Plasma plays a musical style that takes techno, krautrock, noise and psychedelic black metal and mixes them together to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover the writings of William Gibson and Phillip K. Dick.
In my opinion Haunted Plasma are a very great sounding mixture of techno, krautrock, noise and psychedelic black metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Reverse Engineer" and "Echoes". 8 out of 10.
