Birth Of The Monolith are a band from Russia that has been featured before in this zine and on this recording plays a mixture of post black and sludge metal and this is a review of their self released 2021 album "Passio" which will be released on March 10th.
A very dark and heavy sound starts off the album along with some clean playing a few seconds later. All of the tracks are also very long and epic in length while the music also brings in a great amount of post metal elements and the vocals are mostyl high pitched black metal screams.
The slower sections of the songs also add in the heaviness of sludge metal while the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style. All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them along with some blast beats and tremolo picking also being added into the faster sections of the tracks as well as one song also introducing growling vocals into the music.
On this recording Birth Of The Monolith remain true to the mixture of post black and sludge metal that they had established on their previous release. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics are written in a mixture of French, Swedish, Japanese and Russian cover suffering themes with some occult and folklore touches.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from Birth Of The Monolith and if you are a fan of post black and sludge metal, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Haxprocession".
