Review by ZeroSymbolic7188 for Tribulation - The Children of the Night (2015)

In this album Tribulation are trying to make something equal parts black metal, and gothic metal. If you are looking for that particular niche to be filled, then this is possibly the only game in town, and certainty the best game in town, but it begs the question, "did anybody want this?". I don't think there is enough gothic atmosphere and ambience to have this work for a goth metal fan, and to a black metal fan... what black metal fan wants to hear black metal without trem picked guitars, harsh dissonance, and blast beats? I don't think it satisfies that side of the coin either. This is what you listen to if you really want just a blackened-gothic experience specifically, otherwise it's lost in the ozone.
