Metal maniacs, rejoice! I'm proud to present to you: CRYPTIC WANDERINGS; signed via Forever Plagued Records, hailing from Spanish grounds - performing Black Metal, on their debut album entitled "You Shall Be There..." (released June 30th, 2017).

Since formation in 2012; the quintet in question have a Split: "Cryptic Wanderings / In The Shades", and the debut album I'm about to cover: "You Shall Be There..." in their entire discography. 8 tracks ranging at around 40:38; the quartet delivers an intricately designed slab of unprecedented Black Metal arrangements. "She Is My Redemption" opens up the record, developing a unique structure of raw instrumentation juxtaposed with savage musicianship. As soon as the song begins, it provides sinister vehemence as Drizzt on both vocals/guitars constructs a solid array of menacing velocity. Agonizing screams and hard-hitting riffs flourish with an intense formula, displaying a furious aesthetic in which never seems to slow down. "Grim Foundations Of Trasmoz" supplies a diligent songwriting process, where the atmospheric balance measures up with thunderous melodies and pounding grooves from powerhouse bassist Nemac.

"There You Shall Find, And There Alone, Your Tomb" consists of complex dexterity from pummeling drummer Gionata Potenti, consistently showcasing a relentlessly stimulating substance of intimidating haste and power. "The Perpetual False Martyr" orchestrates more efficient contributions to the Black Metal sub-genre, as S. on guitars adequately swerves his solos with blistering prowess. "...A Harald Of Atrocities" has a similar characteristic, contrasting with primitively dominant executions – organically demonstrating a profuse distinction in which captivates and enlightens me greatly. "My Sinister Cortège" distributes more unparalleled attributes, implementing effective elements that are dark – deadly and gritty. If you like your Metal that's brooding in every sense of the word, "You Shall Be There..." will fulfill you with an immeasurable experience.

"F.E.A.L." substantially merits formidable results, which compiles uncompromising Black Metal delicacies, while crafting dynamic proficiencies that are persistently sophisticated and commendable. Each member undeniably feature a behemoth amount of facet's in which manifests with salubrious maliciousness, tormenting yells and excruciating rhythms excel with adroit complexion. Overall concluding "You Shall Be There..." with "The Primitive Darkness Of Torrero", which establishes an extravagant amount of extreme supremacies and originality. I am compelled to say that CRYPTIC WANDERINGS exhibited a grandiose of ear-splitting credibility, which surprised me, memorably – there was not much to discover, but the finishing product was an admirable one, check this out if you're looking for an obscure discovery of immense magnitude.<
