Los Angeles, California's solo project Nothing Is Real have returned with a new recording which shows the music going for a progressive, psychedelic and technical mixture of black, sludge, doom metal and experimental noise rock and this is a review of his self released 2024 album "Acts of Despair And Faith" which will be released in April.
Clean playing starts off the album before going into more of a distorted and heavier direction while the slower sections of the songs also bring in elements of sludge and doom metal. All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them along with the faster sections of the tracks also adding in a good amount of blast beats.
Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style. psychedelic sounds can also be heard in certain sections of the recording along with a great portion of the songs also being very long and epic in length and the tracks also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts.
At times the music also gets very technical, progressive and experimental sounding as well as adding in a good amount of noise rock touches. All of the songs also sticks to an instrumental direction and a lot of the music also adds in more of an improvised atmosphere while the production also sounds very professional.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Nothing Is Real and if you are a fan of progressive, psychedelic, technical black, sludge, doom metal and experimental noise rock, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Block The light" and "Split". 8 out of 10.
