I finally did it 🤘. Here are the reasons why I published black metal style only now (even though people have been asking for it a lot):

1) I have a very specific personal vision of what black metal should be.

Like any fan of the genre, I have certain expectations: high-pitched scream vocals, fast tremolo-picked guitars, marching drums, specific lyrical themes, a ragged and shifting tempo, pauses and build-ups, etc.

Because of all this, I ended up gathering a lot of specific equipment. And as you’ve probably noticed, the more you add, the more likely it is to ruin everything.. The output usually comes with distortions, broken tempo, missing screams, and so on. At best, it turns into something closer to power metal, thrash, death metal, or melodic death metal — and obviously I’m not satisfied with that.

Most of what I see labeled “black metal” isn’t black metal at all. The genre is simply too complex for current algorithms to interpret correctly. So to get at least something close to my vision, I used my own samples, because starting from scratch never gives me the sound I need. But even that doesn't help and the sound doesn't come out the way I would like it to.

I personally have a preference for the symphonic side of black metal — the orchestral, atmospheric, and melodic elements appeal to me the most, and I enjoy incorporating that into my music. I get my love and inspiration for the genre from theese 4 🎼- Cradle of filth 🧛‍♀️, Dimmu borgir💀, Myrkur(early)❄️ and Darkthrone ⚫.

So I'm going to do more like symphonic black metal, with elements of pure black metal.

2) This naturally leads to the second point — it takes a lot of time and effort to make even one song.

Preparing the samples and assembling the final track took a long time. That's why the release was so delayed.

P.S.I will try better and more, but for now I don't have the time and patience to do 1 song for a long time, it's very exhausting and depressing when after hundreds of attempts you don't get anything. So if there's a demand, I'll do more, it all depends on the audience.

==============================================

[low, theatrical whispered narration] Chains of flesh carved in the mausoleum of rust

I trace the sigils in sacrificial ash

And voices echo from beneath the marble floors

Every heartbeat a memory of wrath

[ULTRA-HIGH PIERCING MALE SHRIEK over blast beats] We rise from the grave

[ULTRA-HIGH PIERCING MALE SHRIEK] Revenge on our minds

We shall arise and scorch the skies

As old death's empty veins open with sin

Shadows burn, the secret's not survive

[low, theatrical whispered narration] Broken views I knew, the silence corrupt

Wolves gather outside, their hunger erupts

On their coffins thick archways of sorcery unfold

Each word I whisper, eternally hold

[ULTRA-HIGH PIERCING MALE SHRIEK over blast beats] We rise from the grave

[ULTRA-HIGH PIERCING MALE SHRIEK] Revenge on our minds

We shall arise and scorch the skies

As old death's empty veins open with sin

Shadows burn, the secret's not survive

[dramatic operatic male vocal, tempo slows] Blinding frost

Steal my soul apart

Frozen close

The labyrinth ends in night

[ULTRA-HIGH PIERCING MALE SHRIEK over blast beats] We rise from the grave

[ULTRA-HIGH PIERCING MALE SHRIEK] Revenge on our minds

We shall arise and scorch the skies

As old death's empty veins open with sin

Shadows burn, the secret's not survive

[chaotic screaming and synthesizers fade out] Shadows rise, fall with us

We rise from the grave

Revenge on our minds

We shall arise and scorch the skies

As old death's empty veins open with sin

Shadows burn, the secret's not survive
