Cephyre are a band from Germany that plays a melodic mixture of black, doom and death metal and this is a review of their self released 2024 ep "A Gleam Within The Gloom".
A very dark sounding intro starts off the ep while also introducing synths onto the recording which also mixes in with the heavier parts of the songs at times. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while a lot blast beats are also added into the faster Sections of the recording and all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
Vocals are a mixture of death metal growls and clear singing while the songs also add in a good mixture o f slow, mid paced and fast parts. Blackened metal screams can also be heard at times along with the slower sections of the songs also bringing in elements of doom metal as well as the solos and leads also being done in a very melodic style and a couple of tracks are also long and epic in length, acoustic guitars are also added on the closing track.
Cephyre plays a musical style that takes the melodic forms of black, doom and death metal and mixes them together to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover dark and realistic themes.
In my opinion Cephyre are a very great sounding melodic mixture of black, doom and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "A Gleam" and "Distraction From Reality". 8 out of 10.
