I donÆt know too many metal acts from Serbia so it has been refreshing
to discover Ljuska. This one is the brainchild of some dude called Sifr
Shraddha who has another one man project called Utvar which seems to be
more focused on atmospheric black metal and shoegaze. Ljuska is more in
vein of traditional bands that mainly dominated the nineties and the
debut full length ôVessel of the Voidö is another example of how
captivating the music written and performed by one sole person can be.
Like it is the case with more or less each metal genre having its
origins way back in the eighties there is little room left for
innovation. There is a reason why some bands made big waves back then
and have gained a lot of followers over the past decades. Sifr is clever
enough to pay tribute to some of the big names and chose a quite
conservative approach of taking all the well-known single pieces putting
them back together and enhancing them with a little bit of own DNA to
create something that sounds familiar but fresh at the same time.
The classic tremolo lines are in full force and there are a lot of the
typical epic and often melancholic melodies that we all know from the
Scandinavian bands of the second wave of black metal. There are glimpses
of the minimalistic and raw approach that used to define black metal in
the beginning but also some bits that have a more laid-back and less
adventurous feeling. Some of the trademark chords even show nods to
several death metal outputs so the overall sound presents and
interesting and highly entertaining mixture.
The lead harmonies are always there in the background providing a lot of
haunting harmonies and lending the whole music a sinister and moody
overall feeling. Sifr haa put a lot of emphasis on creating a brooding
atmosphere that is eerie and dark yet has a certain kind of melancholic
beauty. Pitched against the heavy riffs and the pummeling blast attacks
those main themes give the record a very special character.
The vocals are fierce as one might expect from that kind of music and
thanks to clever songwriting the over fifty minutes go by without
noticing. The production is spot on with a nice combination of clarity
and rawness with none of the atmospheric elements buried in the mix.
ôVessel of the Voidö is not the most innovative record I have heard but
a fantastic example of the genre.
