Ophirae are a band from Brazil that plays a melodic mixture of black and death metal and this is a review of their 2022 album "Ophidian" which was released by Mutilation Productions.
Acoustic guitars and synths start off the album before going into more of a heavier and melodic musical direction. Vocals are a mixture of death metal growls and black metal screams while t he faster sections of the songs also add in a decent amount of blast beats and tremolo picking and the music also adds in a lot of Swedish influences.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast pats while all of the musical instruments on the album also have a very powerful sound to them. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style along with the music also adding in a decent amount of metalcore elements, acoustic guitars also return in certain sections of the recording. and one song is also an instrumental and one track also adds in a brief use of spoken word parts
Ophirae plays a musical style that takes the melodic forms of black and death metal and mixes it with metalxcore to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover dark themes.
In my opinion Ophirae are a very great sounding melodic mixture of black, death metal and metalcore and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRAKCS INCLUDE "Rise" "Speed" and "IUNchain". 8 out of 10.
