This is a review of a split album between Germany's [ BOLT ] and Morasth which was reelased by dunk! Records and we will start off the review with [ BOLT ] who return with their mixture of black, drone, sludge and doom metal.
Their side of the split starts out with some distorted amp noises and drones while all of the musical instruments on their side of the recording also have a very powerful sound to them. Elements of sludge and doom metal can also be heard in the slower sections of their song which is also over 20 minutes in length.
At times the music also captures an improv atmosphere along with the track also mixing in a good amount of black metal influences, All of the music is instrumental as well as the song also using the same riff for a few minutes and as their side of the split progresses blast beats can also be heard briefly and the production sounds very dark.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from [ BOLT ] and if you are a fan of black, drone, sludge and doom metal, you should check out their side of the split.
Next up is Morasth a band that plays a mixture of drone, doom and post metal.
Their side of the split starts out with with some distorted amp noises before going into more of a slower and heavier doom metal direction. Their track is also over 18 minutes in length while drones can also be heard in the background and when guitar leads are utilized they give the song more of an atmospheric post metal feeling.
Their track also uses the same riff for most of the track also giving the music more of an improv atmosphere and also keeping everything in a slow yet instrumental musical direction, all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them and when the music finally speeds up a small amount of blast beats can also be heard and the production also sounds very dark.
In my opinion Morasth are a very great sounding mixture of drone, doom and post metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band.
In conclusion I feel this is a very great sounding split and I would recommend it to all fans of black, drone, sludge, doom and post metal. 8 out of 10.
