Opprobrium Adornment's Uncouth Slaves 4 Trax Demo Tape 1997 is an impressive showcase of their raw and unfiltered black metal sound. The four tracks on the tape are intense and unrelenting, with aggressive guitar riffs, thunderous drums, and guttural vocals that capture the band's ferocity and energy.
The production quality of the tape is rough and unpolished, but this only adds to the authenticity of the band's sound. The lo-fi recording captures the rawness and grittiness of their music, and gives the listener a sense of being in the middle of a live performance.
The opening track, "Blood and Ashes," sets the tone for the rest of the tape with its blistering speed and relentless aggression. The second track, "Serpent of the Abyss," is a slower, more atmospheric piece that showcases the band's ability to create a sense of foreboding and tension.
The third track, "Chaos Reigns," is a highlight of the tape, with its frenzied guitar riffs and pummeling drums creating a sense of chaos and disorder. The final track, "Eternal Suffering," is a slower, more melodic piece that provides a fitting end to the tape.
