Richmond, Virginia's solo project Breaths has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for an instrumental mixture of blackgaze, doom metal, post rock, chillhop, ambient and drone and the album was self released in 2022 and called "Isolera".
Ambient style synths and drones start off the album while most of the tracks are also very long and epic in length. All of the music also sticks to an instrumental direction along with the music also having its repetitive moments and when slow guitar riffs are added onto the recording they also add in the heaviness of doom metal.
Blackgaze style melodies can also be heard in some of the guitar sounds while a lot of the music also sounds very improvised. All of the tracks also sound very different from each other along with one song also adding in post rock style clean playing and the whole album also sticks to a slower direction, programmed beats can also be heard briefly.
On this recording breaths takes ambient, drone, cillhop, post rock, doom metal and blackgaze and mixes them together to create something very different from previous releases as well as keeping everything instrumental while the production sounds very dark.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Breaths and if you are a fan of blackgaze, doom metal, post rock chillhop, ambient and drone, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Movement II" and "Movement IV". 8 out of 10.
