Wallowing are a band from the United Kingdom that plays a mixture of black, sludge, doom metal, grindcore and noise and this is a review of their 2019 album Planet Loss" which will be released in September as a joint effort between Sludgelord and Black Voodoo Records.
A sci-fi orientated prologue starts off the album along with a brief use of spoken word samples before going into a heavier musical direction. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams while the slower sections of the songs also bring in elements of sludge and doom metal.
A small amount of melody can also be heard in some of the guitar riffing along with some of the tracks being very long and epic in length. Harsh noises are also added into some parts of the music and during the faster sections of the songs a great amount of grindcore elements and blast beats can be heard, all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them and one track also introduces guitar leads onto the recording.
Wallowing plays a musical style that takes black, sludge, doom metal, grindcore and noise and mixes them together to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover science fiction and the modern political climate along with some inspirations from the writings of George Orwell.
In my opinion Wallowing are a very great sounding mixture of black, sludge, doom metal, grindcore and noise and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Earthless" and "Vessel". 8 out of 10.
