Luvart - Rites of the Ancient Cults [CD]

Old-school Brazilian black/death metal; this harks back to the days when the Brazilian and Greek scenes sounded very similar – see Mystifier. Rites of the Ancient Cults sounds a bit like Varathron circa His Majesty at the Swamp, it’s the same brand of riffing genius. Something I can never get enough of, especially now the big Greek black metal bands have modernized their composition by incorporating faster, more Nordic-sounding parts (praise the dark lord for Ithaqua and Caedes Cruenta!). Tracklist: 1. Primordial Incantation 2. Thy Draconian Majesty 3. At the Gloomy Sky 4. The Path of Serpent 5. Summoning the Black Light 6. Wrathful Tyrant 7. Beyond the Gates of Realms 8. Tenebris Mater
