Primary Emotions/Themes: this music encapsulates dread
Thoughts: Out of all the black metal band's I've found within the past five years I think Pa Vesh En may be one of the best. The way their music is written taps into a primal fear that I have not heard in much other music, certainly not much black metal. It's raw, it's primitive, and it's immediate in it's delivery.
Raw black metal is the perfect medium for Pa Vesh En and the message the music sends. The poor production obscures the music, making the individual parts much harder to discern. This way the riffs, screaming, effects and drums all blend together to create this distorted mess that sometimes resembles music. The resultant atmosphere is more based on raw emotions such as fear, paranoia, and helplessness.
Pyrefication is a bit less intense than Maniac Manifest, but still retains that murderous atmosphere... the entire reason I got into the band in the first place. The more I get into this project the more I enjoy it. I'm tempted to pick up the rest of their albums, in fact I'm going to make a point of it.
