Acid Throne are a band from the United Kingdom that plays a mixture of black, sludge and doom metal with elements of stoner rock and hardcore and this is a review of their 2023 album "Kingdom's Death" which was released by Trepanation Recordings.
Dark soundscapes start off the album along with some clean playing a few seconds later before going into a heavier doom metal direction. The slower riffs also add in elements of sludge metal while the vocals are mostly death metal growls and all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
A lot of the tracks are also very long and epic in length while stoner rock style melodies can also be heard in some of the guitar riffing. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style along with some of the tracks also adding in a small amount of clean playing along with the songs also adding in a lot of black metal and hardcore influences and when the music finally speeds up a small amount of blast b eats can also be heard.
Acid throne plays a musical style that takes black, sludge, doom metal, stoner rock and hardcore and mixes them together to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover misanthropy and anti establishment themes.
In my opinion Acid Throne are a very great sounding mixture of black, sludge, doom metal, stoner rock and hardcore and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Death Is Not The End" and "Last Will And Testament". 8 out of 10.
