Blackened Entrails are a musically talented black death metal band that have a surprising amount of cold melody in their sound, leaning heavily into their black metal side. The production is rich and perfectly mixed, with a real focus on a good drum sound - I can tell they spent a lot of time on this aspect of the recording. All the lyrics are in Spanish, which for me adds a layer of additional obscurity to the music it wouldn't otherwise have. Their riffs tend toward the morosely melodic, and they consistently return to these themes throughout the record, giving the whole affair not only a cohesive feel, but a darkly melodic overtone. The vocals are diverse, with both low growls and high-end screams that are used interchangeably. If you're looking for pure aggression, this band isn't for you, but if you want melody in your madness, you could do worse.
