Wampyric Rites (ECU) / Moloch (UKR) – The Serpent Cult of Darkness LP
€32.88
Black Metal
WAMPYRIC RITES and the votive violence of MOLOCH come to bitter black metal fruition, as they conspire to create a fresh rot split incantation by name of “The Serpent Cult of Darkness” that is to be soon unchained beneath the tabernacle of snake seer sorrow. Carving ritual dagger between unrelenting raw brutality and brooding melodic melancholy, “The Serpent Cult of Darkness” is an engrossing journey into the venomous hearts of the necroverse; with both Wampyric Rites’ tradmark terror of lonely tremelo soundscapes and Moloch’s carnal essence of atmospheric synth solace complementing each grimoire of spell grim grume in cacophonous perfection. Encapsulating modern raw black metal in horrendous harmony, “The Serpent Cult of Darkness” leaves no victims of embryonic existence safe from its immolating flames, with only the virility of the celestial ophidian left to engulf what remains of ephemeral reality and those feeble mortals still clinging to its withered bosom.

One of the most accomplished newcomers Signal Rex has come across in recent years, the shadowy entity of Valais burst from the voidal womb fully formed in the middle of 2021 with their self-titled debut album. Despite existing in the vast (and vastly inconsistent) wilderness of Bandcamp, Valais in fact imparted a power and poignancy that takes most bands at least a couple records to reach, if at all. Both classically composed and forward-thinking, Valais understood right from the start the core tenets of true black metal, but equally understood how to inject their own personality and poise into such to create something that adds to the language of BLACK METAL rather than mimics its speech patterns (and sloppily so).
No, Valais as a work is a towering monument of tension and release, skillful contours and subtle dynamics, richly malevolent melody and slipstreaming violence. Aesthetic touchstones include the likes of Slidhr, latter-day Leviathan, and even Blut Aus Nord at their wiliest, but Valais also exhibit an understated sense of the pagan – perhaps stemming from their native Ireland, or perhaps from some strange cosmos far beyond our comprehension… Either way, all of this coalesces into a whilrlwinding five-song/37-minute experience that feels far vaster than that succinct runtime otherwise suggests. As such, Signal Rex is honored to rightfully release this tome in all physical formats.

Hailing from Finland, while EMBRYONIC SLUMBER may be a brand-new entity in name, the duo are longtime veterans of the underground: VARGRAV / DRUADAN FOREST mainman V-Khaoz and Hellwind Inferion, an incredibly prolific drummer but more recently known as the vocalist for both Sargeist and Desolate Shrine. And while what they create together as EMBRYONIC SLUMBER may show slight shades of their collective pasts, the resulting recording – the full-length In Worship Our Blood is Buried, the band’s bolt-from-the-blue debut – handily transcends comparisons altogether.
