Review by Shezma for Saidan - Visual Kill: The Blossoming of Psychotic Depravity (2024)

I love this record here. I haven't looked into the guys behind this record too much, but on the surface this album comes off as over-the-top fun. Not to take away from the black metal vocals, but they flow so well with they melodic power guitars that still give off a black metal vibe while also sounding like an anime or video game soundtrack. I have kept coming back to this album multiple times and I just enjoy putting on almost any song and have a good time rocking out to this. It doesn't have the classic fuzzy guitars of classic black metal but it's still moody and foreboding. it's heavy as hell and just a good time, if you are not and old school black metal purist this is worth your time. Especially if you're trying to get into the genre at all this is it.
