Maze are a band from Poland that plays a very melodic mixture of black and death metal and this is a review of their self released 2014 demo "Devouring The Sun".
A very dark, heavy and melodic sound starts off the ep and a few seconds later grim black metal screams are added into the music and the music also brings in a bit of the 90's Swedish style of melodic death metal but done with a more modern variation of the genre and some of the riffs bring in elements of thrash.
When solos and leads are utilized they remain true to a melodic style of metal and all of the musical instruments have a very powerful sound to t hem and some of the vocals also utilize death metal growls at times and some of the riffs also bring in more of a modern metal style and a couple of the tracks also brings in a brief use of clean playing and clear vocals can also be heard on one of the songs while the last track also brings in atmospheric elements.
Maze plays a musical style that is mostly rooted in melodic death metal and utilizes a black metal vocal approach to create their own style, the production sounds very professional for being a self released recording while the lyrics cover dark themes.
In my opinion Maze are a very great sounding melodic mixture of black and death metal and if you are a fan of this musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Far Away From The Sun" and "Something In the Mist". 8 out of 10.
