Eremite are a band from Italy that plays a mixture of post, black and sludge metal and this is a review of their 2013 album "Dragonarius" which was released by Taxi Driver Records.
Drum beats start off the album along with a distorted bass guitar a few seconds alter that slowly starts to evolve into a heavier sound which also brings elements of sludge and doom metal onto the recording and after a few minutes aggressive vocals make their presence known on the recording and there is also a brief use of bass guitar leads.
At times the music can be very atmospheric along with some clean playing that also brings in a touch of post rock and the riffs and leads also get very melodic at times bringing in tremolo picking that is more more to black metal and both of the tracks are very long and epic in length and there is also a brief use of melodic singing and psychedelic sounds and the music speeds up briefly on the second song and the album closes with some tragic sounding keyboards.
Eremite plays a musical style that takes post black metal, sludge and doom and mixes them together to create a very dark and heavy sounding recording, the production sounds very powerful while the lyrics cover dark themes.
In my opinion Eremite are a very great sounding mixture of post black metal, sludge and doom metal and if you are a fan of t hose musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Not Of This World". 8 out of 10.
