An invocation of thousands of years of Darkness!\u003cbr\u003eHailing from the urban Israeli settlement called Ma'ale Adummim in Israel, Arallu is a five-piece Black\/Death Metal act that has been around the metal underground for twenty-five years.\u003cbr\u003eThe band got the name Arallu from the Mesopotamian mythology, as it is the name of the underworld kingdom ruled by the goddess Ereshkigal and the god Nergal, where the dead\u003cbr\u003eare judged. Arallu's music revolves around the traditional ancient Middle Eastern melodies of fellow countrymen Melechesh, the high speed savagery of bands like Angelcorpse\u003cbr\u003eand Absu, and the atmospheric feel of legendary acts like before mentioned Melechesh and Absu.\u003cbr\u003eIn 2019 the band had released the record called 'En Olam', and that opus has solidified Arralu's already known talent to the underground extreme metal community. 'Death\u003cbr\u003eCovenant' is the band's seventh full-length studio offering and the album offers the listeners a very stunning infusion of occult Black Metal music with the ancient Sumerian and\u003cbr\u003eMiddle Eastern sound. The riffs found in here will satisfy the listeners with its frenzy of melodic tremolo picked riffs that is intertwined with some eerie folk instrumentation. The\u003cbr\u003eelements in the guitar department, thrown in with a few folk instruments such as a saz and a darbuka, reveals how the band had successfully stripped metal down to its core and\u003cbr\u003eadded a personal touch of their own special flair. them and it provides that extra punch and low-end heaviness to the overall outcome of Arallu's music. It basically lies steadily\u003cbr\u003ebeneath the guitars as it backs them up with some thick lines that give a more deep feel to the strings and dispenses an ominous atmosphere to the tracks. The drum section also\u003cbr\u003ecatches the audience's attention with a variety of destructive pummeling double bass blasting to some Middle Eastern tribal drumming that helps a lot in terms of keeping the\u003cbr\u003eatmosphere intact. The record is filled with high-pitched piercing shrieks and screams which create a dark and raw soundscape. These vicious shrieks are sometimes jacked up with\u003cbr\u003esome uncanny backing vocals that tie together the brutality of extreme death and Black Metal music to the ancient Middle Eastern scales of the material. 'Death Covenant' also\u003cbr\u003eparades the band's strongest production to date in their twenty-five years of existence.\u003cbr\u003eArallu had created a menacing and atmospheric beast in this style of metal with their release of 'Death Covenant'. These Israelis had put out a savage album that is hardly\u003cbr\u003ecomparable to its predecessors.\u003cp\u003eEnd Ov Wars (Tikva)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProphecy of the Dead\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRuler of the Seven Worlds\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnder Jerusalem's temple Mount\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSatanic Spirit\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMystical Sultan\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesert Shadow will Rise\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHumanity Death Embrace\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEmpire of Salt\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSkeletons Battlefield\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55126672703873,"sku":"1666989","price":9.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/51Dsb9rSfYL._SL1500_9da31718-7a33-416e-bc07-43ae69667cb5.jpg?v=1766639765","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/1666989-1","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
