I just love underground extreme music scene and discovering new and dismal and great sounding bands. I found another one and Lautreamont is worth your time if you like Slavic black death metal with lyrics in native Russian language.

Formed in 2015. and hailing from the utter depths of Russia, namely Novorossiysk, a port city on the Black Sea in Southern Russia this avantgarde black death metal trio released one e.p. “Insomnia” and took their time in preparing the full length album because I believe they wanted everything produced and prepared for the fans to be just perfect. When the record started to play, the first thing I noticed was how strong the bass sounds in the production like it is carrying the song structure. The second thing I noticed are some eerie back melodies in the first song “Evil” and how the band sounds tight and well played. “Father” just blew my mind with machine gun riffing and I almost felt torn from within with this music. The lyrics are in Russian and the atmosphere is dark, bleak and it images the bleak and desperate greyness of post Soviet Russia. the country which inspired a lot of dark songs and awesome bands. The title song is for me one of the best songs on the record with epic but raw atmosphere. “Psalm” again has some eeried sounds that is like electronic mixed with singing in the background and it sounds awesome. “Epitaph” mixes slow almost sludgy atmospheric parts with some proggressive and straight brutal parts making it an awesome soundscape. The last song “Coda” is an instrumental with almost dark ambient vibe and with it we accept the inevitable end. Awesome album!
