| | SaarbrⁿckenÆs THE SPIRIT have been on the undergoundÆs watch list |
| | for some time now, but they gathered a few moments in the spotlight |
| | in 2018 when Nuclear Blast Records reissued their debut album, |
| | Sounds From the Vortex (read our review here). With their debut |
| | album, THE SPIRIT utilised a distinctly Swedish black metal sound, |
| | harnessing far more melody than typically scene in the genre and |
| | blending it with a touch of death metal brutality. But can the |
| | Germans recapture the magic of Sounds From the Vortex with Cosmic |
| | Terror and keep their momentum moving? |
| | |
| | Cosmic Terror starts off in incredible form with Serpent as Time |
| | Reveals. Ice-cold, bursting with melody and eviscerating in its |
| | delivery, the opening track and lead single is a clear mission |
| | statement for THE SPIRITæs growth; for all the aggression and |
| | misery in their sound, they are here to dominate with some of the |
| | catchiest black metal youÆre likely to hear all year. Soulful lead |
| | work brings the incredible opening gambit to a close, and the trio |
| | waste no time in hammering home with the crushing one-two of Strive |
| | for Salvation and Repugnant Human Scum. Keeping true to their |
| | formula, both tracks are viscous and hook heavy in equal measure, |
| | delivering melodic black metal to such a high quality that THE |
| | SPIRIT easily hold their own here against the classic works of |
| | DISSECTION, NAGLFAR and SACRAMENTUM. |
| | The crowning glory of Cosmic Terror comes around from the mid-late |
| | portion of the record, however, with the epic progression through |
| | The Path of Solitude, Pillars of Doom and The Wide Emptiness. The |
| | Path of Solitude stands as the recordÆs stand-out moment, shedding |
| | much of the death metal flourishes in favour of a far more melodic, |
| | far more blackened assault. Progressing from melodious grooves to |
| | furious bombardments across its just-shy-of-eight-minute run time, |
| | this is THE SPIRIT at their best. Keeping the momentum going, |
| | Pillars of Doom û previously released last year as a 7? û shows a |
| | remarkable blend of intensity and hook-heavy delivery, before The |
| | Wide Empitness send the listener plummeting into a void of |
| | blackened misery, rounding off the triple-threat that makes up |
| | Cosmic Terroræs highlight moment nicely. The instrumental title |
| | track then crashes in, leading the listener to the recordÆs |
| | conclusion. |
| | |
| | While Sounds From the Vortex fell neatly into DISSECTION worship, |
| | Cosmic Terror sees THE SPIRIT crafting their own identity. Highly |
| | melodic and melancholic, with a frostbitten, ethereal tone |
| | throughout, the trio still wear their influences on their sleeves. |
| | But across Cosmic Terror, the songwriting is stronger than what the |
| | band showed with their debut with plenty of personality shining |
| | through. THE SPIRIT may still be deeply routed in the underground, |
| | but that just serves as further evidence that the underground is |
| | where all the best black metal reigns supreme. |
