Sargassus are a band from Finland that plays a progressive mixture of post black and death metal and this is a review of their self released 2022 ep "The Albatross".
A very heavy and melodic sound starts off the ep while the solos and leads also add in a great amount of melody. All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them along with the vocals also adding in a good mixture of black metal screams and death emtal growls.
Elements of post metal are also utilized quite a bit throughout the recording while the music also has its progressive moments. The recording also adds in a small amount of psychedelic touches at times along with some clear singing also being utilized on a couple of tracks and all of the songs stick to either a slow or mid tempo direction and acoustic guitars can also b e heard briefly towards the end.
Sargassus plays a musical style that takes post black, melodic death and progressive metal and mixes them together to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover godlike birds, deceased dogs and the collapse of time.
In my opinion Sargassus are a very great sounding progressive mixture of post black and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACK "The Albatross". 8 out of 10.
