Precaria Ex Humanitas album review by The Anti-Flesh Nimbus






Precaria has been featured and reviewed in the printed edition, issue #1 (page 31) of The Anti-Flesh Nimbus Magazine: A Journey To The Dark Side along with big and well known bands like Cult Of FireBestia ArcanaThrone of KatarsisSerpent NoirClandestine BlazeGrave Miasma and obscure, less known -not for much time- bands like Heretic Cult Redeemer, Impure Worship, Nadiwrath, Aima, Chaosbaphomet and Profane Prayer, featuring also an interview to Daemon Worship Prod. and a review of the Speyer Grey Mass Fest. The review of Precaria Ex Humanitas is entirely written in Greek -as it is the entire magazine- but it included a hand-written translation to English: 





"From the enigmatic Mexico with the ancient traditions that have given us Xibalba, Andramelech & more, comes Precaria, the vessel of Ianzél the Hermit, with an ambitious debut full-length album of 6 tracks and 52 minutes. With such lengthy songs and spanish lyrics from an unknown -until now- band, I don't know how many would dare to dive into the worlds of Precaria, yet those who will decide to do so, will find many things to prolong their presence there. 


First of all its the dry, high-pitch sound, which refers to the old Norway and the devastating drums that instantly suck the listener's attention. Here emerges the "sonic ugliness" that was once so adored in blackmetal circles. Around the middle of the record the rhythm slows down, it even crawls at some point. We are now into the deep, exploring Ianzél's fables. 



I haven't translated all the lyrics yet, but the latin title stands for something close to "The Precarious Position of Humanity". As for some sparse and short acoustic passages, they have nothing to do with pompous keyboards; on the contrary, these grisly chord plucking intensify the morbid atmosphere. Well done Mexico!"
