Vale Of Pnath are a band from Denver, Colorado that has had music reviewed before in this zine and on this recording plays a very melodic and technical mixture of black and death metal and this is a review of their 2024 album "Between The Worlds Of Life And Death" which will b e released in may by Willowtip Records.
Cello's start off the album which also gives the music an atmosphere of a horror movie soundtrack along with some choirs and symphonic touches before going into more of a heavier and melodic direction. Vocals are a mixture of death metal growls and black metal screams and when the music speeds up a great amount of blast beats can also be heard.
Tremolo picking can also b e heard in some of the faster riffing while the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. At times the music also gets very technical sounding along with the solos and leads also being done in a very melodic style when they are utilized as well as one track also adding in a brief use of clean playing.
On this recording Vale of Pnath takes a melodic and symphonic form of black metal and mixes it with technical death metal to create a very aggressive sounding recording. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover science fiction and horror themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Vale Of Pnath and if you are a fan of melodic, symphonic and technical black and death metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Silent Prayers" "Uncertain Tomorrow" and "Burning Light". 8 out of 10.
