Paradise In Flames are a band from Brazil that plays a symphonic mixture of black and death metal and this is a review of their self released 2021 album "Act One".
Symphonic sounding keyboards start off the album and also mixes in with the heavier sections of the music at times. During the faster sections of the songs a decent amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard while the vocals also bring in a mixture of black metal screams and death metal growls.
Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while operatic male and female vocals can also be heard in some parts of the album. Throughout the recording you can also h ear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with the music also being very heavily rooted in the 90's.
All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them along with the solos and leads also being done in a very melodic style when they are utilized as well as some songs adding in whispered vocals, spoken word parts can also be heard briefly and as the album progresses a brief use of clear vocals and clean playing are also utilized. The production sounds very old school while the lyrics cover Occultism, Evilness, Darkness, Anti Christianity and Misanthropy themes.
In my opinion Paradise In Flames are a very great sounding symphonic mixture of black and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Old Ritual To An Ancient Curse" "Dancer Of The Mist" "Unseen God" and "The Way To The Pentagram". 8 out of 10.
