Onheil are a band from t he Netherlands that plays a melodic and blackened mixture of death and thrash metal and this is a review of their 2023 album "In Black Ashes" which was rleeased by Black lion Records.
A very dark sound starts off the album while the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style. Melodies are also done in a very melodic style along with the faster sections of the songs also adding in a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats and t he vocals are mostly black metal screams.
Elements of thrash metal can also b e heard in some of the guitar riffing while the album also adds in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. Angry shouts can also be heard briefly along with all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them as well as some tracks also adding in death metal growls, a few songs are also long and epic in length and the whole recording also sticks t o a heavier direction.
Onheil plays a musical style that takes a melodic form of black metal and mixes it with death and thrash metal to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover the apocalypse, misanthropy and self destruction themes.
In my opinion Onheil are a very great sounding melodic mixture of black, death and thrash metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Night Terror" "Beneath A Steel Sky" and "Master of Disease". 8 out of 10.
