Utburd (Russia)
Utburd on their release “The Horrors Untold” shows us a very good, frightening and mystic material which lies between Doom and Black metal and soaked with a morbid atmosphere of nightmares. Slow dissonant and slightly detuned distortion riffs mixed with clean arpeggios on guitar and piano, voice is changed from grim scream to growl, the whole sound of release is like funeral in cold rainy November day. Starting from the short introduction “The Horrors Untold” shows rather fast material but it becomes slower and slower with each track. And after the track “Pikman’s Triumph” sound becomes crawling and swallowing everything into darkness. Sometimes in fast moments Utburd slightly reminds me Lux Occulta for their mystic atmosphere, but sound is more sick and atmospheric. “The Horrors Untold” should be really good as a soundtrack for a good mystic horror movie or for a long and dark autumnal evening.
The Horrors Untold, a one man band from Russia
practicing a serious and solid atmospheric and depressive black, where we
listen to melodic and very diverse influences without leaving their black
scheme. Active since 2014 Tuor only member of this project, gives life to this
band and brings us their third recording The Horrors Untold. Each song is a
hymn to the darkness and many times they leave us speechless. Set Rise of Dagon
The Mystery of Joseph karven Death from Mount Tempest Pikman's Triumph The
Horror Untold Recall that some issues are slow but do not lose the strength of
style and are rather funerary marches to death itself. The set continues with:
The Horror Untold He, Who Paint in Red Waiting for Death Is Worse And they end
with an instrumental recording that is included in their demo of two years ago:
He, Who Paint in Red. Highly recommended.
