This sounds a bit different from the tons of black metal bands that play nowadays; drums are really mechanical, samples are often used, vocals are sometimes lower than typical black metal and keyboards are not over-used, but present, and with many electronics contaminations.
The main thing I noticed is that many songs seem to have a structure that makes them sound like a collage of riffs and ideas without knowing what the song will sound like: this may be interesting and useful the avoid boreness,but when this happens, it doesn't seem to work perfectly.
Over-used ideas or samples make the first songs annoying in many parts,and all of them sounding like "sample intro - evil tremolo picking riff - sample - evil tremolo picking riff -sample - electronic sample -evil tremolo picking riff - ending"
Some ideas are really good, but used too much all over the songs! |
