A Transylvanian Funeral - Gorgos Goetia

Review by Jonny Schneider

A Transylvanian Funeral's album Gorgos Goetia is a haunting and atmospheric work that showcases the band's unique blend of black metal and dark ambient music. The album is a journey through the depths of the underworld, with each track offering a different perspective on the themes of death, decay, and the occult.

The opening track, "The Supreme Rite of Transmutation," sets the tone for the album with its ominous, ritualistic chanting and eerie soundscapes. From there, the album takes the listener on a journey through the abyss with tracks like "The Initiation," "The Devouring Mark," and "The Ninefold Key."

Throughout the album, A Transylvanian Funeral's musicianship is top-notch, with intricate guitar riffs, thunderous drums, and haunting synth melodies creating a dense, immersive atmosphere. The vocals, delivered in a raspy, guttural style, add to the album's overall sense of darkness and foreboding.

Summary by Jonny Schneider

Gorgos Goetia is an impressive and immersive work of black metal and dark ambient music. It's a must-listen for fans of the genre, and a testament to A Transylvanian Funeral's talent and creativity.
