Efflore are a band from Taiwan that plays a very melodic and symphonic form of black metal and this is a review of their 2023 ep "Haunted Island" which was released by Mourning Light Records.
A very heavy and melodic sound starts off the ep while symphonic elements and synths are also mixed in with the heavier sections of the songs. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal black metal screams along with a few growls also being utilized at times and the faster sections of the songs also add in a lot of blast beats.
Tremolo picking can be heard in some of the faster riffing while the songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. Spoken words can also be heard on a couple of tracks along with all of t he musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them and when guitar solos and leads are added into the music they are also done in a very melodic style.
Elflore plays a style of black metal that is very melodic and symphonic sounding. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover folk and urban horror legends from Chinese Taoism and Indian Buddhism.
In my opinion Ehflore are a very great sounding melodic and symphonic black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Wraith in The Old Well" and "Spirits Of the Green lake". 8 out of 10.
