Review: Eremus' debut album "Monólogo"
Recently, Lachryma Christi was contacted by the Portuguese band Eremus.
I have to confess I haven't heard of them before, sadly.
Eremus are a duo, they have been around for quite some time. They have previously released a demo called Sonho, and more recently, more precisely at the beginning of this year, they released their debut album, Monólogo. I was very pleasantly surprised when I heard it. It is a great contribution for the depressive black metal style, which is one of my favourite ramifications of the black metal music.
So, what can you expect of Monólogo? You can expect very heavy, dragged and melodic riffs and rhythms with lyrics exclusively in Portuguese, if I understood well. In fact, there is something very Portuguese about their music. If you know it, you'll definitely know what I'm talking about.
Still about their music, it is not only slow and depressive (and I say this in a good way), but there are also fast bits which I wasn't expecting, and which I very much welcomed and appreciated. Eremus can combine a bit of everything black metal music is about, and the voice is on point as well. And I don't want to forget to mention the clean voices at the end of the second track Monólogo I. Very appropriate, very tuned and melodic. We need more of these kind of voices in this style of music.
Monólogo has seven tracks, it is a very complete and sober album. I very much enjoyed it and plan to listen to it often. Looking forward to any upcoming release too.
I'd like to see them live. I don't even know if these guys play live, since it is a duo, but I'd definitely would like to see this music played live.
I definitely recommend Monólogo, and it's going straight to Lachryma Christi's top 10 releases of 2023.
