Arch Daeva/Illuminates Of Thanateros/2012 Demo Review


  Arch Daeva are a band from Greece that plays a very raw and primitive form of occult black metal and this is a review of their 2012 demo "Illuminates Of Thanateros".

Drums range from slow, mid paced to fast drumming with some blast beats being thrown into the music, while the sound effects which are used on the intro bring a very dark and occult sound to the music, as for the bass playing it has a very dark tone with riffs that follow the riffing that is coming out of the guitars and at times they have a very powerful sound to them .

Rhythm guitars range from slow, mid paced to fast black metal riffs that are very raw and primitive sounding with some dark sounding melodies and a thrash feel and there are little to no guitar solos or leads present on this recording.

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

In my opinion Arch Daeva are a very great raw and primitive sounding occult black metal band and if you are a fan of this style, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Illuminates Of Thanateros" and "Dagon Ascending". RECOMMENDED BUY.
