Athenaeum Of Sin Reviews

Let dive into the background. Scream Your Hate was originally released in 2016 and has only nine tracks. Now what my ears are encountering is a reissue, with better artwork and additional live tracks. In this review, I will only discuss the original nine songs. And this is the first time hearing about this band and their music, and what I’m hearing is brutal and extreme music, where the production is not letting the music down, capturing everything nonce, sound, and heartbeat of the music. 

Upon pressing the play button, the opening piece, Dipping, which welcomes the listener with the sound of dripping water and an eerie audio clip. This unsettling introduction gives way to a rapid pace of aggressive and intense instrumentals and vocals, creating a sense of foreboding that grabs the listener’s attention from the start. As one continues their journey with the second track, Outcast, and has the dark music intensifies, drawing the listener further into the thematic exploration of hate and gore. 

Zora’s album, Scream Your Hate, feels like an album that takes no prisoners and pushes the boundaries in their music. As you immerse yourself in the tracks, each one progressively delves into darker themes, drawing you deeper into a realm of raw intensity. The rawness of the recording enhances the album’s dark, hateful and brutal sound, creating an authentically gritty immersive experience. While the incorporation of modern production is subtly woven in, the album primarily thrives on maintaining its raw, unfiltered essence.

Scream Your Hate stands out as a formidable entity, with a sound this is relentless yet brutal and skull-crushing music, offering a heavy and brutal auditory experience that is delivered by this fruit of art devilmanship — both in the instrumental composition and arrangement. Glk Molè guitar work delivers a dark, immersive atmosphere, featuring fast-paced, heavy skull-crushing distorted riffs, each note is meticulously designed to evoke a thrilling sense of chaos and precision, creating an exhilarating yet menacing and brutal experience. 

At the same time, there are some weaving technical elements found in their guitar work, that enriches their already formidable sound. Giampiero Serra’s relentless and heavy drumming features rapid blast beats and intricate rhythms, driving the energy of their songs to exhilarating heights. TatO takes charge of both the bass and vocals, creating a powerful combination. The bass lines lay down a solid groundwork, infusing the sound with a rich, deep resonance that beautifully balances the guitar and drums. 

TatO’s bass performance contributes substantial weight and depth, allowing each track to resonate with a palpable heaviness that reaches deep into the listener’s soul. His vocals are equally striking, characterized by guttural tones and piercing blackened snarl screams that cut through the instrumentation, conveying raw emotion and intensity. This combination elevates the overall experience. Scream Your Hate is a brutal fruit of art experience that tears through your flesh and emotions, leaving your innermost being exposed to the unrelenting power of the music. 

Through its ferocious delivery and unyielding commitment to its sound, Zora‘s album stands as a fruit of art. Enduring appeal of old-school death metal. It reminds us all that sometimes, the best way to connect with music is to be swept up in its unapologetic chaos.
