Gates Open are a duo from Finland that plays a melodic mixture of black, death and thrash metal and this is a review of their 2024 album "Voice After Silence" which will be released in February by Inverse Records.
A very heavy and aggressive sound starts off the album while the vocals are a mixture of black metal screams and death metal growls. Elements of thrash metal can also be heard in some of the guitar riffing along with the solos and leads also being done in a very melodic style and melodies can also be heard in some of the riffs.
Most of the music is also very heavily rooted in the modern era while a few songs also adds in a small amount of clean playing. Synths can also be heard briefly along with all of the musical instruments on the album also having a very powerful sound to them and most of the recording also sticks to a mid tempo direction.
Gates open plays a musical style that takes melodic black, death and thrash metal and mixes them together to create a sound of their song. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover the darker side of the world and mankind, life and death.
In my opinion Gates Open 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 duo. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Awakening" "A Place Called Home" "We Are No More" and "Northern Dark". 8 out of 10.
