Luna 13 are a duo from Los Angeles, California that has had music reviewed before in this zine and plays a mixture of black metal, industrial, electronica and bass music and this is a review of their 2022 album "Gorgo" which will be released in September by Cleopatra Records.
A very heavy and aggressive sound starts off the album while the faster sections of the songs also add in a great amount of blast beats. Vocals are mostly black metal screams along with some melodies also being added into some of the guitar riffing and the music also adds in a lot of industrial elements.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while all of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them. Demonic voices can also b e heard at times along with the music also mixing in some touches of electronica and drum'n'bass, synths can also be heard on some of the tracks and as the album progresses a brief use of clean vocals and spoken word parts can also be heard.
On this recording Luna 13 remains true to the mixture of black metal, industrial and electronica that they h ad established on their previous release. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Satanism, Occultism, Anti Religion and Horror themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Luna 13 and if you are a fan of black metal, industrial, electronica and bass music, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Till There's Nothing Left" "Gorgo" "Her infernal majesty" and "Upside Down". 8 out of 10.
