Switzerland's Stortregn have returned with a new recording which continues the melodic mixture of black and death metal from their previous releases and this is a review of their 2021 album "Impermanence" which will be released in march by the Artisan Era.
Synths, classical guitars, rain and thunder sounds start off the album before adding in some drum beats and melodic guitar solos and leads. The heavier riffs also add in a decent amount of melody while the faster sections of the songs also add in a lot of blast beats and some of the tracks are also very long and epic in length.
Vocals are a mixture of death metal growls and black metal screams while the songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. All of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them along with the music also having its progressive moments as well as acoustic guitars also being added on some of the tracks.
At times the music also gets very technical sounding along with some influences form the 90's Swedish era but keeping it modern at the same time. A decent amount of jazz influences can also be heard in the way the music is being structured as well as one track also introducing spoken word parts onto the recording, tremolo picking can also b e heard in some of the faster riffing. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover scientific and cosmos themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from Stortregn and if you are a fan of melodic black and death metal, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Ghosts Of The Past" "Grand Nexion Abyss" and "Timeless Splendor". 8 out of 10.
