Although Miasthenia from Brazil is active for more than 20 years, I dont think the common Black Metal follower will have a release of them in their collection. With their 4th and latest album “Legados do Inframundo” the Pagan Black Metal by main woman Hécate and company, they delivered an album thats worth getting in your collection. Vocal-wise there are similarities with ex-Darkestrah vocalist Kriegtalith, while the Black Metal itself is filled with well-played, mostly high-pitched, melodic riffs, great solos and keyboards. A link with old Dimmu Borgir is easily made, but it wont do justice for the effort Miasthenia has put in this album as, for example, they can switch without any problem into a 1980s NWOBHM act at the end of “13 Ahau Katún”. Pleasantly surprised by Miasthenia and this album! (Ricardo)
