This is a review of an older recording from Germany's Necronomicon which showed the music going for a mixture of thrash, speed, power and first wave black metal and this is a review of their 2004 album "Construction Of Evil" which was re-issued in 2024 by Metal Scrap Records.
Dark soundscapes and demonic voices start off the album before going into a heavier thrash metal direction. Vocals bring in more of a first wave black metal style mixed in with some back up vocals while the solos and leads also remain true to an 90's style and they also make an old school style sound more modern.
Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while spoken word can also be heard at times. When the music speeds up elements of speed metal and blast beats are also utilized along with the clear vocals also adding in a touch of power metal. The songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts as well as all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them, clean playing and keyboards can also be heard on a couple of tracks.
On this recording Necronomicon takes thrash, speed, power and first wave black metal and mixes them together to create a very heavy release. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover war, violence and darkness themes.
In my opinion this was another great sounding recording from Necronomicon and if you are a fan of German thrash and first wave black metal, you should check out this re-issue. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Stormbringer" "From Hell" "Terrorist Attack" and "Possessed Again". 8 out of 10.
