‘Pavor Nocturnus’, M-Acculate’s debut album, is a force to be reckoned with, especially after the global pandemic turmoil. It serves as the foundation for a masterpiece that surrounds hip-hop. This album was recorded at a home studio and collaboratively created with the Indonesian duo Spion Liape. M-Acculate’s world is beautifully set on fire by Its sole beat, having the power to capture listeners instantly. The rest of the track is equally doom-like, matching the tone of the strings to give rise to introspective lyrics that, in turn, serve as the cherry on top. The title of the song itself sends a spine-chilling effect onto people who happen to be aware of the title track, “Pavor Nocturnus”. M-Acculate portrays a very rare self-disclosure in the deeply personal; “I Got You”.
The M-Acculate slogans along the chorus come off very close to singing and act as a highlight. It perfectly reflects the sculpt of his emotional state, which has crumbled to pieces because of lockdown, but reflects the heroic sculpt of fighting against his debris-like state through singing.
It’s confidence and style that gets captured through the isolated raw power and lyrical prowess of M-Acculate in “Force of the M-Acculate”. It perfectly showcases his effortless ascent in the hip-hop industry. “Don’t Exist” slows things down with reflective lyrics that explore the themes of identity and purpose. “True to This” gives M-Acculate the crown of hip-hop lovers. It serves as a clear tribute that is unmatched. “The 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse” decodes the story and the imagery, whereas “I Am Still Hip Hop” serves as a rebellious tribute that reaffirms the spirit of the culture.
“Who Knows” adopts a profound approach, questioning the sense of life, fate, and everything in between on an entrancing beat. M-Acculate delivers “The Bar Abattoir” and it is instantly evident that he has evolved into a fully-fledged beast of a lyricist. Technically diverse, M-Acculate’s performance exemplifies no limits in creativity. The final track, “Acquiescence”, works as a bittersweet reminder that introspection evokes emotion and deep thought. This serves as the listener’s leftover feeling, along with vouches of optimism towards the end of the album as well as packing the ideas deeply buried within them. The album speaks for itself; ‘Pavor Nocturnus’ is a force to be reckoned with, crafted by Spion Liape and M-Acculate. It sounds heavy, unrefined, and without reservation—it’s a staple for someone who respects the genre.
