LISTEN: NECROSOCIETY — xX_WrldW4rNeCr0_Xx
NECROSOCIETY is an independent collective of eight artists who handle their own production and releases. The group has released music every Halloween since 2022. Their latest single, "xX_WrldW4rNeCr0_Xx," arrived on October 31 and brings all eight members together on a single cypher. HXLX produced and engineered the track.
Ultra-abrasive production. Imagine you're standing in the middle of a gigantic workshop where ghosts, demons, ghouls, poltergeists, and their fellow evil creatures are busy doing their vicious thing. Some are sharpening their tools, getting ready to grab them and fly off to commit their vile crimes. Others are torturing people on enormous ugly blood-stained machines. Everything is grinding, screeching, and rattling at the same time. And somehow, all these ungodly creatures also know how to rap.
That's pretty much what this track sounds like. There's SoundCloud rap with its absurdly inflated, distorted bass, classic industrial, and that particular atmosphere of destruction and desolation you can find in metal music. Awesomeness.
What I especially enjoyed is how you can clearly hear each rapper's individual personality, even though they all seem to be hiding behind some kind of mask (which is quite appropriate for Halloween, I guess).
And this thing goes on for almost six minutes! I think if you listen to the whole song from beginning to end, you might actually become a little possessed yourself. And who knows, maybe the next morning some evil spirits will show up at your door and invite you to a witches' sabbath in that gigantic workshop.
