The First Three Sins, The Summary

The First Sin, The Strings/Keys: Comprised of dissonant, reverberating/distorted chords, dark tones/brutal riffs with earth-shaking bass riffs, and additional keys. The Second Sin, The Vocals: Involves bone-chilling wails interweave with supernatural chants and growls. The Third Sin, The Percussions: DIntense and relentless assault of the drums, with blazing strikes and beats.

The Fourth Sin, Overall Discussion

As soon as the listener presses that play button, the opening piece Grandiose Anthropomorphism. Godlike Incubus greets the listener with raw instrumentation, incantation, chants, and growls.

Upon the second musical composition, Celestial Consciousness, Starlight Divine, and the remaining four pieces, the music strikes the listener’s ears with music infused with this fruit of art devilmanship and instrumental prowess/composition.

Suton evokes the dark corners of the Balkans, soul, sensuality, and blasphemy through its musical spectrum, creating an otherworldly experience for the listener.

Sacrilegious production, composition, sound, and music are polished to perfection, from the intricate melodies to the subtle harmonies, resulting in a truly unforgettable musical journey with an intense and unrelenting sound that will captivate any listener. The music simultaneously leaves the listener’s ears and soul spellbound by its sheer beauty, which lingers on even after the composition has ended.

Insanus’s guitar work is the fruit of art. It uses dissonant, reverberating, distorted chords, dark tones, brutal riffs, low tuning, and a gloomy atmosphere. Bass riffs are equally impressive, with their earth-shaking vibrations leaving you feeling like the ground beneath you is quaking. Insanus’s drum work is also worth noting, with its aggressive, spine-cracking intensity that drives the music forward with unrelenting force.

With moments of introducing dark keys (keyboard) at specific points, adding an extra layer of darkness to the already ominous atmosphere. Hylinn‘s vocals are nothing short of monstrous, evoking a sense of dread and terror in the listener.

The way the bone-chilling wails interweave with the supernatural chants and the clean/growling vocals is simply haunting. It is as if the voices are coming from beyond the grave, beckoning the listener to join them in some dark, otherworldly realm. What makes Sacrilegious genuinely remarkable is the visceral journey through despair and darkness, which will leave an impression and an immersive experience.

Sacrilegious fruit of art fusion of brutality of death metal, the cold darkness of black metal, the melancholy/brooding of doom and sludge heaviness throughout the release, seamlessly sewn together, thus creating a unique avant-garde twilight tapestry.

Overall, Sacrilegious is a haunting and captivating fruit of art music that evokes a sense of despair and melancholy.

The album comes to an end with the last song, Old Man Willow, a cover song originally by Elephant’s Memory, an American band from the late ’60s and early ’70s. We want to give a shoutout to Satanath Records for letting us review Suton and their Sacrilegious album.

The Fifth Sin, The Memorabilia

For us, Suton music is beyond typical genre borders? It is Avant-garde, progressive, abstract, visceral, sinister, haunting, seductive, epic, and fierce.

It feels hallucinatory and horrifying but also decisive. The guitars’ tonal qualities make them seem like the audio equivalent of some spectral shape-shifter, but the rhythm section’s adventures are every bit as attention-grabbing.

The Sixth Sin, The Artwork

Captivating! It has a distinct vibe of darkness and foreboding, which complements perfectly the haunting melodies of Suton’s music.

The Seventh Sin, Disrelish

Nothing to disrelish within the musical spectrum of Suton and their album, Sacilegious. Therefore, this concludes Suton and their album, Sacilegious review.

The Hymns

01. Grandiose Anthropomorphism. Godlike Incubus.
