Agnes Vein are a band from Greece that plays an epic mixture of black, sludge and doom metal and this is a review of their 2021 album "Deathcall" which will be released in December by Venerate Industries.
A very slow, dark and heavy sound starts off the album while also introducing elements of sludge and doom metal onto the recording. All of the tracks on the recording are also very long and epic in length along with all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them.
Vocals are mostly black metal screams while clear singing can also be heard in some parts of the album. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing along with the solos and leads also being done in a very dark yet melodic style as well as one song also adding in a brief use of clean playing, touches of 80's era epic doom metal can also be heard at times and all of the music sticks to either a slow or mid tempo direction.
Agnes Vein plays a musical style that takes black, sludge and epic doom metal and mixes them together to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover inner thoughts and philosophical themes.
In my opinion Agnes Vein are a very great sounding epic mixture of black, sludge and doom metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Deathcall" and "The Golgotha Entanglement". 8 out of 10.
