Naught/A Lesser Star Will Take Our Souls. For The Burden Of The Gods Will Leave Us To The Flames Of Tartarus/2013 Album Review


  This  is  another  review  of  a  recording  from  Naught  which  continues  their  hybrid  of  raw  and  primitive  sounding  occult  black  metal,  doom,  and  dark  ambient  with  the  album  being  self  released  in  2013  and  called  "A  Lesser  Star  Will  Take  Our  Souls,  For  The  Burden  Of  The  Gods  Will  Keave  The  Flames  To  Tartarus.

  Drums  range  from  slow  to  mid  paced  playing  with  only  a  small  amount  of  fast  drumming  and  blast  beats  being  present on  this  recording,  while  the  bass  playing  has  a  very  dark  tone  with  riffs  that  follow  the  riffing  that  are  coming  out  of  the  guitars.

  Rhythm  guitars  range  from  slow, mid  paced  to fast  riffs  that  combine  raw and  primitive  sounding  occult  black  metal  with  doom  and  dark  ambient  to  create  a  sound  of  their  own  with  some  melody  being  thrown  into  the  riffing  at  times  and  there  are  no  guitar  solos  or  leads  present  on   this  recording.

  Vocals  are  all  distorted  sounding  grim  black  metal  screams,  while  the  lyrics  cover  darkness,  left  hand  path  and  occult  themes,  as  for  the  production  it  has  a  very  dark,  raw  and  primitive  sound  to  it.

  In  my  opinion  this  is  another  great  sounding  recording  from  Naught  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  occult  black  metal  mixed  with  dark  ambient  and  doom,  you  should  check  out  this  album.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "The  Fates  never  Favor  Those  Who  Journey  to  The  Outer  Realms"  "Moloch"  and  "Ides  Of  March".  RECOMMENDED  BUY.
