Rchmond, Virginia's solo project Breaths has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for an experimental shoegaze direction with elements of black, sludge and doom metal and this is a review of his self released ep "Melt Away" which will be released in 2024.
Synths start off the album while also adding in elements of post rock and shoegaze along with the vocals adding in more of a clear style. Electric guitars and clean playing can also be heard at times as well as the slower riffs also adding in the heaviness and sludge and doom metal and all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
Some of the music also captures the dark atmosphere of post black metal while the songs also mix in a lot of touches of alternative rock and all of the tracks stick to a slower direction and also adds in some 90's era influences.
On this recording Breaths moves away from the black metal influences of previous releases and goes for more of a shoegaze and alternative rock direction which also adds in some of the heavier side of sludge and doom metal. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover melancholic themes.
In my opinion this is another decent sounding recording from Breaths and if you are a fan of shoegaze, alternative, post rock, sludge and doom metal, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Fade Apart" and "Shaken". 8 out of 10.
