Album Review: Aesthus / Sieluhaaska – Kaksi liekkiä Saatanalle (Purity Through Fire)

Purity Through Fire presents Kaksi liekkiä Saatanalle, a special split mini album between Aesthus and Sieluhaaska. Bringing together two of Finnish black metal hottest/coldest newcomers on digipack CD and one-sided 12″ vinyl. The mini album will be released on May 24th, 2024.

Sometimes all you want to hear is the sounds of Hell. Be it from the fiery pits or the frozen depths. Happily, Aesthus and Sieluhaaska are on hand to deliver exactly that with two vile blackened efforts each.

Aesthus is up first with Vihasta Ja Verestä and Vapaus Ja Kaaos. Raw and cathartic intensity, pulled directly from the hottest corners of the underworld. It is black metal 101 in some regard, but there is a surprising rockier, punkier and melodic rhythmic style to their music that makes it more unique. Black metal that is catchy and chaotic? That’s certainly unexpected and makes Aesthus’ efforts on this split release well worth checking out.

On the other hand, Sieluhaaska offer more expansive efforts that chill to the bone. Darker, harsher, rawer, and more evil sounding. It’s from the same blackened depths as where Aesthus lurk, but from a much colder corner. Which means their two efforts stand out for all the right reasons too.

Combined, both bands offer up black metal horribleness that will please all with a maligned heart and corrupted soul.
