Slovenian atmospheric post-black metal act Zorya released the second EP Primeval, a follow up to the in 2020 released Rusalka. The EP includes four tracks with lyrics inspired by old Slavic beliefs and worshipping nature, while heavily intertwined with personal experience. The music is a mix of ambient, screaming black metal vocals, puddling percussion, and melodic post-rock, which is sometimes dark. Music might be considered as much noise as it is post-black metal/post-rock. In some tracks, the attitude seems experimental, especially in the way the mood in individual tracks develops and is sustained by pauses or sparse instrumentation with little distortion. Songs certainly come across as fragmented, with the metal or rock parts suddenly dropping into ambient or orchestral wash and back. The entire new EP is now available for streaming and you can give it a listen in the player below. Link
