Heretique are a band from Poland that has been featured before in this zine and plays a blackened form of death metal and this is a review of their 2016 album "De Non Existentia Dei" which was reelased by Via Nocturna.
Dark sounding synths and ethnic sounding classical guitars start off the album as well as introducing melodic guitar leads onto the recording and after the intro heavy guitars make their presence known on the recording along with a good mixture of death metal growls and black metal screams.
All of the musical instruments on the recording have a very powerful sound to them and the riffs also use a small amount of melody and when the music speeds up a great amount of blast beats can be heard and the songs also bring in a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and some songs also bring in a small amount of spoken word parts and classical guitars also make a return in certain sections of the recording.
Heretique creates another recording that remains true to the blackened death metal style found on their last album, the production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover darkness and anti religion themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Heretique and if you are a fan of blackened death metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Sweet Stench Of Rotting Human Flesh" "Dimension" "Unknown Whispers" and "The Raven". 8 out of 10.
