Blighted Eye are a band from Seattle, Washington that has been featured before in this zine and on this recording plays a very progressive, melodic and blackened form of death metal and this is a review of their 2024 album "Agony's Bespoke" which will be released in September by Beyond The Top Records.
Clean playing starts off the album along with some synths a few seconds later before going into a heavier direction. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style while the vocals also add in a good mixture of black metal screams and death metal growls.
Most of the tracks are also very long and epic in length while the riffs also add in a great amount of melody. At times the music also gets very progressive sounding along with the faster sections of the songs also adding in a decent amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts, clear vocals are also added into certain sections of the album.
On this recording Blighted Eye. expands on the melodic and progressive style of blackened death metal that they introduced on their previous release The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover the depths of the human psyche.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Blighted Eye and if you are a fan of melodic and progressive blackened death metal, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Tragoedia" "Howls From Beyond The Mist" and "Agony's Bespoke". 8 out of 10.
