ShadowThrone are a band from Italy that plays a symphonic mixture of black and death metal and this is a review of their 2019 album "Elements' Black Legacy" which was released by Non Serviam Records.
A very dark sound starts off the album which also introduces keyboards onto the recording which also mixes in with the heavier sections of the music. Vocals are a mixture of black metal growls and death metal growls while blast beats can be heard in the faster parts of the songs.
The riffs also add in a decent amount of melody along with the songs also adding in a mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. Symphonic elements can also be heard at times along with some of the tracks being long and epic in length as well as all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very dark and melodic style along with the faster riffing also adding in a decent amount of tremolo picking as well as some of the riffing also showing an influence of thrash metal and as the album progresses choir vocals can also be heard briefly and at times the music also has its avant garde and atmospheric moments, one track also introduces spoken word parts onto the recording and the album closes with an instrumental. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Fantasy, Nature and Black Magick themes.
In my opinion ShadowThrone are a very great sounding symphonic mixture of black and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Endless Dance Of The Universe" "Saturn off Newborn Era" "Curse Of The Royal Blood" and "ShadowThone". 8 out of 10.
