Axamenta are a band from Belgium that plays a very melodic, progressive and blackened form of death metal and this is a review of their self released 2024 ep "Spires".
A soundtrack orientated style starts off the ep along with some stringed instruments, keyboards and operatic voices a few seconds later while the music also has its progressive moments. The only song present on this recording is over 23 minutes in length and divided into seven different chapters and melodies are also added into the heavy riffing.
At times the music also gets very symphonic sounding while the vocals add in a mixture of death metal growls and black metal screams. Clear singing is also added into certain sections of the recording along with some clean playing also being utilized at times , wind instruments can also be heard briefly.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style along with some spoken word parts also being utilized briefly. Programmed beats are also added into certain sections of the recording and all of the music sticks to either a slow or mid tempo direction. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics are a concept album based upon unbearable guilt with a horror story context.
In my opinion Axamenta are a very great sounding melodic and progressive blackened death metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this ep. 8 out of 10.
