Occult Blood / Carrion Bloom (US) — Battle Cries of Endless Night — 2025 split

A split that showcases two distinct yet complementary visions from the USA underground scene, merging the raw power of black metal with the untamed spirit of punk. While Occult Blood and Carrion Bloom have carved niches for themselves by blending these genres, this release reveals a more nuanced difference in their approach. Occult Blood leans into a more aggressive, uncompromising black metal sound, yet carrying an obtuse immediacy when punk elements surface, with a deliberate bluntness, ensuring that even newcomers grasp the intensity of their statement. The lyrical content is steeped in occult imagery and ritualistic motifs, evoking a dark, almost sacramental atmosphere, inviting listeners into a world of esoteric rites and spectral visions. In contrast, Carrion Bloom adopts a stance that is both expansive and meticulously crafted. While they dip into blackened punk, particularly on the central track, the overall sonic landscape remains more aligned with orthodox black metal traditions. Their use of synthesizers and layered arrangements conjures a haunting, necromantic aura, underlined by lyrics that interweave natural chaos with mythic narratives. This measured approach provides a brooding counterpoint to Occult Blood’s ferocity, creating a dynamic interplay between both sides. Together, these two acts offer a diverse listening experience that captures the multifaceted nature of this genre mixture, not only highlighting the versatility within black metal and punk but also reinforces the idea that even within shared thematic territory, distinct creative paths can evoke entirely different emotional landscapes.
