Shezmu : Demo (Review)
Here's a doom black metal band from Montreal that are raging and bringing their lo-fi sound to the world with an already sold out cassette tape. The demo is available online to enjoy, but rest assured they have more to come, I seriously can't wait to hear. The music is old school it is a perfect fit for the cassette support. They mix noise and doom to craft a world of despair that is so thick you can't get out of it. Their music sounds like it's in the background coming from the underworld. The lyrics are dark and are about forgotten conflicts and prayers to the ancient Egyptian gods. They throw in some high pitch noise through the blend of heavy music to give an element of eastern inspiration. The music of the Montreal duo, Shezmu, is amazing, it's raw dark heavy and great. For the fans of old school doom and death music here is a band with a great sound with a DIY attitude. The album was available on the label Les Fleurs Du Mal Productions, follow them to make sure you don't miss the next release. Facebook Bandcamp
