Through Mists are a solo project from Montreal, Quebec, Canada that plays a very progressive and blackened form of death metal and this is a review of his 2023 album "Starkiller" which was released by Syrup Moose Records.
A very fast and brutal sound starts off the album along with a great amount of blast beats while all of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them. Vocals are a mixture of black metal screams and death metal growls as well as some clean singing also being utilized at times.
Synths are also added into certain sections of the recording while the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing along with the music also having its progressive moments along with some of the tracks also being very short in length, angry shouts can also be heard at times.
Through Mists plays a style of blackened death metal that is very progressive and brutal sounding. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover darkness, metaphysics, philosophy and anti religion themes.
In my opinion Through Mists are a very great sounding progressive blackened death metal solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Blessings Undone" "Depraved Telepathic Beings" "Polluted Mindwarp" and "Starkiller". 8 out of 10.
