Hand Of Kalliach are a duo from Scotland that plays an atmospheric mixture of folk and melodic death metal and this is a review of their self released 2020 ep "Shade Beyond".
Atmospheric sounding synths, spoken word parts and female vocals start off the ep before going into a heavier musical direction. All of the musical instruments on the recording also having a very powerful sound to them while black metal screams are also added into some parts of the music.
Death metal growls can also be heard at times while shouts can also be heard briefly along with some folk instruments also being mixed in with the heavier sections of the music. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style along with one track also introducing clean male vocals onto the recording and most of the recording also sticks to a mid tempo direction, when the music finally speeds up a small amount of blast beats can also be heard.
Hand of Kalliach plays a musical style that mixes Celtic folk music with the melodic and atmospheric styles of black and death metal to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while the ,lyrics cover nature themes.
In my opinion Hand of Kalliach are a very great sounding atmospheric and melodic mixture of folk, black and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Fathoms" and "White horizon". 8 out of 10.
