     Zwielicht  are  a  band  from  Germany  that  has  had  music  reviewed
     before  in  this  zine  and  plays  a  very  misanthropic  and  satanic
     form  of  black  metal  and  this  is  a  review  of  their  album  "The
     Aphotic  Embrace"  which  will  be  released  in  2024  by  Van  Records.

     A  very  dark  sounding  intro  starts  off  the  album  while  ritualistic
     spoken  word  parts  can  also be  heard  briefly  before  going  into  a
     heavier  direction.  Melodies  are  also  added  into  some  of  the
     guitar  riffing  along  with  the  faster  sections  of  the  songs  also
     adding  in  a  decent  amount  of  tremolo  picking  and  blast  beats
     which  also  gives  the  music  more  of  a  raw  feeling.

     Melodies  are  also  added  into  some  of  the  guitar  riffing  while
     the  songs  also  add  in  a  good mixture  of  slow,  mid  paced  and
     fast  parts.  When  guitar  solos  and  leads  are  utilized  they  are
     also  done  in  a  very  melodic  style  along  with  a  great  portion  of
     the  tracks  also  being  very  long  and  epic  in  length,  angry  shouts
     can  also  be  heard  in  certain  sections  of  the  recording  as  well
     as  one  song  also  being  an  instrumental  and  introducing  acoustic
     guitars  onto  the  album.

     On  this  recording  Zwielicht  plays  a  style  of  black  metal  that  is
     very  aggressive,  modern,  satanic  and  misanthropic  sounding.  The
     production  sounds  very  professional  while  the  lyrics  cover
     Satanism,  Occultism,  Misanthropy  and  Darkness  themes.

     In  my  opinion  this  is  another  great  sounding  recording  from
     Zwielicht  and  if  you  are  a  fan of  misanthropic  and  satanic  black
     metal,  you  should  check  out  this  album.
