How about some mesopotamian melodic blackened death from Munich for #MittwochMetalMix , one from a recent album called #EnumaElish , which I ranked very high on my #AOTY2023 list?

Here you go:

Time for an update of my album of the year list.

#Eridu and #Allfather deliverd some really good records, both made it in the top 10.

Up next: Fires in the Distance, Cattle Decapitation, Devildriver, ...

Happy if you can recommend something to me!

A mellow dark piano track closes this album.

What's my verdict after one spin?

YES!!! That's what I'm looking for! The oriental theme goes great together with the melodic black/death metal style.

I had this album on 3,5 out of 5, but then "Clay, Blood And Vengeance" hit so hard, I had to upgrade it to a 4, which means:

Great album 🤘 🤘 🤘 🤘

Akkad was the seat of the Akkadian Empire (2334-2218 BCE), the first multi-national political entity in the world, founded by Sargon the Great (r. 2334-2279 BCE) who unified Mesopotamia under his rule and set the model for later Mesopotamian kings to follow or attempt to surpass. The Akkadian Empire set a number of "firsts' which would later become standard.
