Oryx are a band from Denver, Colorado that plays an atmospheric mixture of black, sludge, doom and death metal and this is a review of their 2024 album "Primordial Sky" which will be released in October by Translation Loss Records.
A very dark, heavy and atmospheric sound starts off the album while all of the tracks are very long and epic in length. Elements of sludge and doom metal are also added into the slower sections of the songs along with the vocals also adding in a great amount of death metal growls mixed in with a few black metal screams.
Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while the solos and leads are also done in a very dark yet melodic style. Clean playing and acoustic guitars can also be heard on some of the tracks along with some synths also being utilized briefly, all of t he musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them and the whole album also sticks to a slower direction.
Oryx plays a musical style that takes atmospheric black, sludge, doom and death metal and mixes them together to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover life, death and the cosmos.
In my opinion Oryx are a very great sounding atmospheric mixture of black, sludge, doom and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Primordial Sky" and "Look Upon The Earth". 8 out of 10.
