Cruxis are a duo from Providence, Rhode Island that plays a mixture of black, sludge metal, crust punk, deathrock and industrial and this is a review of his self titled 2024 ep which will be released on January 26th by Fiadh Productions.
A very dark yet heavy sound starts off the ep while the mid tempo sections mix in touches of deathrock. Clear vocals can also be heard at times while the slower parts of the songs also show an influence of sludge metal and the mid tempo sections of the recording are heavily rooted in c rust punk and d beat.
Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while the solos and leads are also done in a very dark yet melodic style. Black metal elements can also be heard briefly along with some of the drum beats also adding in a touch of industrial as well as one song also adding in a brief use of clean playing and most of t he ep sticks to either a slow or mid tempo direction.
Cruxis plays a musical style that takes black, sludge metal, crust punk, deathrock and industrial and mixes them together to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very dark and heavy while the lyrics cover dark and mysterious themes.
In my opinion Cruxis are a very great sounding mixture of black, sludge metal, crust punk, deathrock and industrial and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this duo. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Ruby Throat" and "Unquiet". 8 out of 10.
