HateCrime are a band from Russia that plays a blackened form of death metal and this is a review of their 2019 album "Music About Death" which was released as a joint effort between Grotesque Sounds Productions and Wings Of Destruction.
A very dark yet heavy sound starts off the album while acoustic guitars can also be heard briefly while the vocals are a mixture of black metal screams and death metal growls. Shouts are also utilized at times along with the faster sections of the songs also adding in a decent amount of tremolo picking and blast beats.
The songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid and fast parts while the riffs also add in a decent amount of melody. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very chaotic yet melodic style along with a couple of the tracks being long and epic in length, acoustic guitars also make a brief return.
HateCrime plays a musical style that takes black and death metal and mixes them together to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover death and dystopian themes.
In my opinion HateCrime are a very great sounding blackened death metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE 'Dead Raven' and ''The Purge'. 8 out of 10.
