Messora are a band from Montreal, Quebec, Canada that plays a progressive and melodic mixture of black, doom and death metal and this is a review of their self released 2019 album "The Door".
A very dark and demonic sound starts off the album before adding in some clean playing which is also added into a lot of parts of the music. Elements of prog emtal can be heard in some of the heavier riffing while the vocals also add in a mixture of death metal growls and black metal screams.
All of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them while the riffs also add in a decent amount of melody. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style along with a great portion of the tracks being very long and epic in length.
When the music speeds up a decent amount of blast beats can be heard along with one of the tracks being an acoustic instrumental. Elements of doom metal can also be heard in the slower sections of the songs as well as one track also introducing clean vocals onto the recording and throughout the album you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts, some songs also show an influence of thrash metal and one track also introduces spoken word parts onto the recording. The production sounds very professional for being a self released recording while the lyrics cover dark themes.
In my opinion Messora are a very great sounding melodic and progressive mixture of black, doom and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Door" and "The Tide". 8 out of 10.
