Viles Vitae (POR) –
IV 13.02.2017
The three Lusitanian warriors(Vulturius – Vocals; Belial Necro – Guitars and Deimos – Drums) purposed to conquer the four principal elements on this EP that is so simply called as IV. In numerology this will be the magickal seven (3 members,4 songs). If we put the amazing and obscure artwork of Fábio Infante upon it, we can prepare ourselves to a black journey into nowhere.
The ritual will be take a form of CD via Caverna Abismal Records in the mid of February 2017 so for me this is a gift before the feast of the dead.
Viles Vitae (means worthless life) consists of experienced members. I think that maybe they comes from other style, that did Hypocrisy with The Abyss or so, but I don't know too much information about them and I don't want to reveal the veil of obscure.
As I wrote before the EP consists of four songs, but let's start with the beginning.”The Vortex Of Disharmony" starts with wind whispers then with marching drums they arise with atmospheric guitar harmonies and various drum themes. Already here I can mention a band's name that is no other than the Hungarian De Profundis when they plays their raw side. Of course there aren't any other band. Viles Vitae is quite original in it’s own style. Hoc erat in principio tenebrarum..
Second „Sunless Redeemer” starts with fire crackle and some melody, then devastating Black Metal with blasting drums and cymbals. The melody also atmospheric. This is one of my favorite song on this EP. Not too original but overwhelming like the flames the covers the temples.
Third „Source Life Extinction” starts with rain and thunder crack. This is a slower title with simple riffs, even the scream of Vulturius heard so much more evil, than in other songs.
Fourth „Theorie of Deconstruction” is the song of the earth. The mood of this song reminds me to first Kampfar album. Absolutely not evil, but fine melodic and very familiar for me. Also it has a rock'n rollish piece with starting ugghh. Best song for dancers in the shows if VV plan to prepare a few.
I forgot to mention that in every end of the songs can be listen a Latin speaks that seems very familiar to Mortiis voice in „Anden som „. Yes, they used maybe the same technical also the EP ending with wolf howling and female choirs.
Vulturius's voice is fitting well to the music and the others are plays as need to be. If they will be continue the work, than we can observe the rising of a more original and talented horde emerging from Lusitanian sands.
