Morast are a band from Germany that plays a mixture of black, sludge, doom and death metal and this is a review of their 2019 album "II Nostro Silenzio" which will be released in September as a joint effort between Totenmusik and Van Records.
A very slow, dark and heavy doom metal sound starts off the album while the riffs also add in a decent amount of melody. The riffs also mix in the heaviness of sludge metal along with the vocals also adding in a decent mixture of both death metal growls and black metal screams.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very dark and melodic style. One track also introduces clean playing onto the recording, A couple of the tracks are very long and epic in length along with all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them, as the album progresses a brief use of spoken word parts can also be heard and all of the music sticks to either a slow or mid tempo direction.
Morast plays a musical style that takes black, sludge, doom and death metal and mixes them together to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover disenchantment themes.
In my opinion Morast are a very great sounding mixture of black, sludge, doom and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "A Farewell" and "November". 8 out of 10.
