Ghorot are a band from Boise, Idaho that plays a blackened mixture of sludge, stoner, and doom metal and this is a review of their 2021 album "Loss Of Light" which was released as a joint effort between Inverse and Transylvanian Records.
A very dark yet distorted sound starts off the album while all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a more stoner and 70's influenced proto style along with the vocals are mostly angry sounding death metal growls.
Most of the tracks are also very long and epic in length while the slower sections of the songs also add in the heaviness of sludge and doom metal. High pitched black metal screams can also be heard in some parts of the recording along with the riffs also adding in a good amount of dark sounding melodies.
When the music speeds up a small amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can also be heard along with one song also introducing clean playing onto the album as well as the music also stickling to mostly a slow or mid tempo direction and the music also has its atmospheric moments. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover dark themes.
In my opinion Ghorot are a very great sounding blackened mixture of stoner, sludge and doom metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Charioteer Of Fire" and "In Endless grief". 8 out of 10.
