Finland's Antipope have returned with a new recording which shows them moving away from the black and death metal elements of earlier releases and focusing more on a shamanistic, psychedelic and progressive form of metal and this is a review of t heir 2024 album "Doors Of The Dead" which will be released on october 25th by Moribund Records.
A very ritualistic sound starts off the album along with some clean playing a few seconds later while shamanistic chants can also be heard at times. All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them while the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style.
When the music speeds up a great amount of blast beats can be heard which also adds in touches of black and death metal while the album also has its progressive moments. Vocals are done in more of a power metal style along with the songs also adding in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts.
Tremolo picking can also be heard in some of the faster riffing along with some of the tracks also being very long and epic in length, harsh vocals can also be heard in certain sections of the recording and the album also has its psychedelic moments, synths are also added on a lot of songs. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Ancient Greek Myths.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Antipope and if you are a fan of progressive power metal with touches of black and death metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Magisteria" "A Ritual Of Snake And Dance" and "Doors OF The Dead". 8 out of 10.
