Ensom are a band from Spain that plays a symphonic and melodic mixture of black and death metal and this is a review of their 2020 album "Civilizations" which was released as a join between Vacula Productions and FogFoundation.
Heavy riffing and symphonic sounding synths start off the album while the faster sections of the songs also add in a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Choir vocals can also be heard in some parts of the music along with a great amount of high pitched black metal screams and the riffs also add in a great amount of melody.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while the solos and leads are done in a very melodic style. The songs also mix in a great amount of classical music elements along with a great portion of the tracks also being very long and epic in length.
All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them along with the music also mixing in the more melodic side of death metal at times as well as the music also adding in a great amount of orchestra sounds. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Occultism, Ancient Astronaut Theories and a retrospective of a history of mankind and the last two tracks are also written in Spanish.
In my opinion Ensom are a very great sounding symphonic and melodic mixture of black and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Civilizations" 'Brotherhood Between Stars" "The Eye on The Pyramid" and "Portdor De Luz'. 8/5 out of 10.
