Everson Poe are a solo project from Chicago, Illinois that plays a mixture of black, sludge and doom metal and this is a review of his 2020 album "Monstrous Existence" which was released by Trepanation Recordings.
Clean playing starts off the album along with some synths also being introduced onto the recording a few seconds later before going into a heavier direction. Death metal growls can also be heard in some parts of the recording while the slower sections of the songs also add in the heaviness of doom and sludge metal.
Blackened metal screams are also a very huge part of the recording while they also add in a touch of hardcore. All of the tracks are also very long and epic in length while the faster sections of the songs also add in a small amount of blast beats and tremolo picking along with some touches of post metal also being utilized at times as well as a couple of tracks also adding in a small amount of clean vocals, a small amount of atmospheric sounding drones can also be heard on the closing track.
On this recording Emerson Poe brings in more of a mixture of black, sludge and doom metal along with some touches of post metal and hardcore to create a very heavy style. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover social political, occultism themes and the writings of Robert W. Chambers.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Everson Poe and if you are a fan of black, sludge and doom metal, you should check out this solo project. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Belial" and "The Beast". 8 out of 10.
