Metaphysical Engines Approaching The Event Horizon

Ghuughra The album cover says "minimalist black metal" but what you're actually getting here is a competent Death Metal release with progressive leanings and an open, natural sounding production. The drum sound in particular is just *chef's kiss. Add in some super galaxy-brain lyrical themes and guttural puke vocals and you get this gem of a release. Favorite track: Screaming From The Throat Of A Reversed Light Being.

Luke Hadit's debut LP was a death metal album (and a very good one) that occasionally forgot itself and veered into more diverse territory. This new album is from the beginning a total submission to death metal ADHD, with constant style changes and mood shifts. And what a joy it is because of it. I love seeing this kind of diversity in heavy music.

_______________

"Metaphysical Engines Approaching The Event Horizon" is the second full length album by HADIT, now allied with I, Voidhanger Records.
On the occasion of their previous works the Italian band had already demonstrated its ability to bend death metal stylistic features to its own creative needs, without giving up the heaviness and sonic barbarity that characterizes the genre. In this new work HADIT do even more and better, pushing the accelerator of the hypnotic and cosmic components of the sound, to enrich complex and unpredictable harmonic constructions.

Enhanced by the fat production of Gabriele Gramaglia (Cosmic Putrefaction, Vertebra Atlantis), who plays bass, guitar and synth on the album alongside the historic members Xn (main guitars, vocals) and Fulgŭrātŏr (drums), the songs of "Metaphysical Engines Approaching The Event Horizon" tell, in an almost cinematic way, apocalyptic scenarios of death and desolation where existence is just a side note on the infinite canvas of space-time, black as oblivion. The tangle of Xn's fantastic riffs and Fulgŭrātŏr's powerful drums is devastating and reaches epic heights in the long cosmic dissertations of "Screaming From The Throat Of A Reversed Light Being" and "Del Tramonto Sul Nulla, Dove Fuoco Diventa Cielo," certainly among the key pieces of the album.

For HADIT it is another great proof of mastery and above all of strong personality, a rare commodity in today's stagnant swamp of death/black metal.

An outstanding Extreme doom death album, in the best tradition. The funerary atmosphere reminds of Evoken ('Centuries of ooze" bears striking similarities, for my delight). It is overall sharp, dark, hypnotic and unrelenting. One of those rare convincing new bands that hold proud the legacy of the biggest names. Bertrand Marchal

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu

Extremely inventive and multifaceted sci-fi prog death, just like iridescent ethereal world on the cover art. Best band's achievement up to date. And easily in 2023 AOTY list Dmitry Nevozhay

The album description mentions an “emotional apex.” That’s really the difference between Stare and the band’s previous albums. Ulcerate was always supremely technically proficient. I just didn’t care all that much. Their growth has come from making music you will feel. Metallurgical Fire
