New England's ORCumentary has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for a mixture of folk, death and power metal with a musical style they refer to as being 'orc metal' and this is a review of their self titled and self released 2023 ep which will be released in August.
Folk instruments start off the album and also mixes in with the heavier sections of the songs at times. Symphonic sounds can also be heard in certain sections of the recording while the riffs also add in a decent amount of melody along with the vocals being a mixture of death metal growls and black metal screams.
Keyboards are also a very huge part of the recording while all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them. The songs also mix in influences from power metal into the more melodic side of the music along with the faster sections of the tracks also adding in a small amount of blast beats, spoken word parts are also added on the closing track.
On this recording ORCumentary goes for more of a mixture of symphonic black, death, folk and power metal. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover fantasy and humor themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from ORCumentary and if you a re a fan of folk, black and death metal, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Blood" and "Into The West". 8 out of 10.
