Chicago, Illinois's solo project Everson Poe has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for a mixture of post black, doom and sludge metal and this is a review of her 2022 album "This Night Country" which will be released in February by Trepanation Recordings.
Clean playing starts off the album while the music also adds in a great amount of post rock elements. All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them along with some clear vocals also being utilized at times and the slower sections of the songs also adds in the heaviness of sludge and doom metal.
Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style. Spoken word parts can also be heard briefly along with the faster sections of the songs also adding in some tremolo picking and blast beats and high pitched black metal screams can also be heard at times.
Some of the tracks are also very long and epic in length along with the songs also adding in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts as well as some songs also adding in some synths and atmospheric sounding drones. The production sounds very dark and heavy while the lyrics cover the allegorical and universal nature of fairy tales.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Everson Poe and if you are a fan of post black, sludge and doom metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "I Am The Maker Of My Own Evil" and "The Chamber of Blood". 8 out of 10.
