Celebrating twenty-five years of career, Lisbon band Invoke released their second full-length entitled Deo Ignoto in January this year.
At the end of 2021, we had already seen the single "Sons of an Unknown God", which filled us with expectations, which were confirmed with the arrival of Deo Ignoto. The album features eight songs all sung 100% in Portuguese, which adds a gigantic identity of its own to the band, with a sound based on Black Metal, it's easy to have a positive impact over the course of the almost forty-eight minutes. Here we have intense and visceral lyrics, powerful riffs, aggression and melody in perfect balance and a haunting vocal from Pedro Dias.
Released by Amazing Records, Deo Ignoto is certainly one of the best extreme metal albums to come out of Portugal in recent years, so check it out for yourself and confirm what I'm saying.
