Torrent: DEVENIAL VERDICT - BLESSING OF DESPAIR (2024) [WMA] [FALLEN ANGEL] |
...SIŁA I PIĘKNO MUZYKI TKWIĄ W JEJ RÓŻNORODNOŚCI
Oczekiwanie nagrodzone katharsis w postaci nowatorskiego, znakomitego, atmosferycznego death metalu.
To jak okno na zupełnie inny świat, świat tak szczegółowy i kompletny, że nie da się go objąć w całości na raz bez ryzyka popadnięcia w szaleństwo.
To prawdziwe 'błogosławieństwo'!

Finnish dissonant/atmospheric death metal band Devenial Verdict return after nonchalantly dropping a staggering debut out of nowhere in 'Ash Blind'. Stunning everyone with its sheer magnificence and power, it was always going to be interesting to see where they go from there. And they've released a new full length that's not only a worthy follow-up but it's far more nuanced than anything they've done in the past. They've nurtured a sound that is inherently pensive and adopted an approach that's laden with suspense and intrigue; the sharp, ringing, dissonant tunes linger in the air like inverted scythes. The atmosphere remains emotionally charged which is already rare for this style, with the music being a lot more expressive and colourful in its shades of gloom over here. The songs, undulating gracefully in their intensity, showcase interesting and comparatively diverse variations without straying from their core sound which sees dissonance and atmosphere working in tandem. There's a sense of dark melancholia permeating their music which adds meaning and depth to this kind of music that can too easily be rendered soulless. Devenial Verdict have once again crafted a masterful, passionate album that pushes the sound in its own way while firmly establishing a distinct identity for the band.
For fans of: Ulcerate, Morbid Angel, Dysgnostic, Saevus Finis, Crown of Madness, Mithras
Devenial Verdict have managed to produce a heavy-hitting yet beautiful, funereal brand of death metal on their sophomore album. They blend chuggy, headbanging melodic sections with aggressive blast beat runs, progressive dirges, and cerebral changeups, all the while maintaining a dissonance that keeps the listener slightly uncomfortable despite the beauty of what they are experiencing. The title track is a perfect template of this dissonant approach, while heavy-AF tracks like Garden of Eyes are tailor made for moshing to live; tracks like Solus and Counting Silence are slower and more progressive; the closing track is decidedly doomy. The sheer variety of this music is impressive and speaks to the talent of the musicians behind this record.
Guitar leads are tastefully laid over intros/interludes, with excellent tone appropriate for the feel of the song. Take Moon-Starved, for example, with its Steve-Vai-ballad reminiscent guitar melody and tone, in contrast to I Have Become The Sun, whose interlude features a more prog-influenced phrasing and tone. Guitar solos are excellent. Where they engage in a changeup or clean intro, the music is epic and cerebral. The most memorable riffs, like those on Solus, remind of early Opeth's innovative approach to rhythm guitar.
Overall, I praise DV for producing a varied collection of songs with very little filler and lots of beauty. Finally, we can't talk about this album without mentioning the late Mariusz Lewandowski, whose captivating painting "Absolute Authority" provides the cover art for this record. All together, a masterpiece of avant-garde death metal that I am excited to listen to over and over again.
