Single Review: NECROSOCIETY "xX_WrldW4rNeCr0_Xx"
For those
unfamiliar with trap, it is a musical genre rooted in American hip-hop,
emerging in the southern United States, particularly Atlanta, during the 1990s.
Today, it stands among the most influential styles in modern rap. NECROSOCIETY
claims to have created necrotrap, a fusion of trap and metal. So, let's hear
what this combination has to offer!
“xX_WrldW4rNeCr0_Xx”
brings together all eight members of the collective for a 5:41 cypher packed
with energy, aggressive vocal performances and industrial-flavoured
experimentation. There is definitely a noisy dimension here that I particularly
enjoy, as it brings something genuinely interesting to the overall atmosphere
and occasionally pushes the music closer to extreme metal territory.
However, I have a few reservations. The vocals feel rather buried and lack the consistency I would have expected. Personally, I would have loved to hear a proper metal vocalist, perhaps even a session singer, bringing some real vocal brutality to the mix. After all, if you want to sound metal, why not bring in people who actually come from the metal scene? That's my professional bias as a vocalist, I guess! Hahaha! I also missed some guitars, although I understand that staying closer to trap is part of their artistic direction.
Am I the right reviewer for this particular experiment?
Maybe not! Still, there is enthusiasm, energy and a genuine desire to push
boundaries here. Keep experimenting and good luck with what comes next!
