Review by Gay Santos

Catechesis by Kvltist - A Sonic Desecration You Won’t Forget Alright, buckle up, because Catechesis is a relentless black metal assault that punches you in the gut and leaves you gasping for air. Released in 2015 under Germany’s W.T.C. Productions, this album isn’t here to hold your hand or be your Spotify playlist filler—it’s raw, unapologetic, and dripping with Satanic fervor. If you’re into the kind of music that feels like it was recorded in some cursed forest at midnight, then congratulations, you’ve found your next obsession. Let’s dive straight into it: MZI (multi-instrumental demon) and Amon Xul (vocal powerhouse from hell) bring an unholy energy to this record. Tracks like “The Devil’s Catechumen” and “Eucharisty of Death Divine” are burned into my brain—not because they’re catchy but because they’re downright oppressive. Take “The Devil’s Catechumen,” for instance. The riffs hit harder than a steel-toed boot to the face, while the drumming sounds like machine gun fire on overdrive. It’s chaotic as hell, but there’s a twisted sort of beauty in how everything comes together. This track feels less like music and more like a ritual summoning—something ancient and malevolent clawing its way out of the void. And then there’s “Eucharisty of Death Divine.” Holy shit, this one grabs you by the throat and doesn’t let go. The vocals sound like they were ripped straight out of the abyss itself—raw, guttural screams layered over haunting melodies that make you feel dirty just listening to them. There’s this eerie tension throughout the song, like you’re being stalked by something unseen. By the time the final notes fade away, you’ll either want to smash your speakers or hit repeat immediately. Either reaction means Kvltist did their job. What really sets Catechesis apart is the production. Mixed by Alexander Schiborr and mastered by Patrick W. Engel, it strikes the perfect balance between filth and clarity. Every snare crack hits hard enough to rattle your skull, and every tremolo riff cuts through like a knife slicing flesh. And let’s not forget the artwork by Ceethava—it’s dark, unsettling, and fits the vibe perfectly. Seriously, staring at this cover for too long might give you nightmares. Now, here’s the kicker: despite all the aggression and blasphemy pouring out of these tracks, there’s something oddly meditative about Catechesis. Maybe it’s the repetition of certain themes or the hypnotic quality of the instrumentation, but listening to this album feels like entering a trance. One moment you’re headbanging so hard you risk whiplash; the next, you’re sitting in stunned silence, wondering what the hell just happened. Final thought? Listening to Catechesis is like standing in a thunderstorm without an umbrella—it’s brutal, exhilarating, and leaves you soaked to the bone. But hey, maybe that’s exactly what you need sometimes. Just don’t say I didn’t warn ya when you start hearing voices after spinning this one a few times.

About Kvltist

Lineup MZI: Instruments, backing vocals Amon Xul: Main vocals Biography KVLTIST was formed in early 2013 as the manifestation of a vision carried along by MZI since almost a decade before: to create black metal which is rooted deep in its devil-worshipping traditions yet contemporary in its feverish, multi-layered expression. The writing and immediate recording for the first opus began in December 2013. Shortly after, Amon Xul joined KVLTIST as permanent main vocalist. In September 2015, the work finally was complete and the utterly adversarial sonic incarnation called Catechesis was fully materialized: a swathing, ecstatic, and filthy Black Metal Liturgy of utter Luciferian devotion and worship was dragged from the Abyss, accompanied by guest vocalists such as Hellchrist Xul of Funeral Winds and Necrosodom of Azarath / Deus Mortem and organically mastered by Patrick W. Engel at Temple of Disharmony.

Interesting fact about Album

Here’s something cool: The album *Catechesis* by Kvltist is a raw, intense journey into Black Metal. It came out in 2015, crafted almost entirely by one person—MZI. He handled everything from the music and lyrics to recording and even layout design. The album was mastered by Patrick W. Engel, a name metal fans know well for his work on tons of legendary releases. Fun detail: there’s a track called “Darkest Light from Glaring Shadows” that somehow ended up listed twice, but with slightly different titles. Maybe it’s a nod to duality or just a quirky oversight. Either way, it adds to the mystique. This album feels like a labor of devotion, literally—MZI credits "The Devil" alongside himself for the lyrical content. Wild, right?
