ORCumentary are a solo project from New England that has been featured before in this zine and on this recording plays a comedic form of folk metal and this is a review of their self released album "Fully ORChestrated" which will be released in 2021.
Folk instruments start off the album and also mixes in with the metal influenced sections of the music along with some symphonic and orchestra elements also being added into the songs. When spoken word parts are utilized they are also done in a very grim style as well as adding in some touches of black metal.
Death metal growls are also a very huge part of the recording while some of the songs also bring in a small amount of clean pagan vocals. When rums are utilized they are also done in a very aggressive style and all of the songs also avoid electric guitars or any traditional metal instruments as well as one of the tracks being a cover of "Where's There A Whip, there is A Way" which also introduces female vocals onto the recording.
On this recording ORCumentary keeps the black and death metal vocals, folk music elements and goes into more of a symphonic and orchestral direction with this recording. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover humorous and ORC themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from ORCumentary and if you are a fan of black, death, pagan, folk and symphonic metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Goblin Death March" "Troll Snot" and "Orcs On Ice". 8 out of 10.
