This is a review of a split ep between Sweden's Dimwind and U.S.A's Breaths which will b e released in April by Trepanation Recordings and we will start off the review with Dimwind a band that plays an instrumental form of post metal.
Their side of the split starts out with some keyboards and spoken word parts before going into a heavier direction. The music also brings in a great amount of post metal elements along with the solos and leads also being done in a very melodic style. When the music speeds up a small amount of blast beats and tremolo picking can also be heard and their only track is over 15 minutes in length, clean playing can also be heard briefly while the production sounds very professional.
In my opinion Dimwind are a very great sounding post metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out their side of t he split.
Next up is Breaths who return with a mixture of blackgaze, doomgaze, post metal and hardcore.
Their side of the split starts out with some grim black metal screams while the slower sections of the song bringing in elements of doom metal. When the music speeds up a decent amount of blast b eats can b e heard along with their only track being almost 15 minutes in length, when clean vocals are utilized they also add in touches of post metal.
All of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them and when guitar solos and leads are utilized they are done in a very melodic shoegaze style. Clean playing can also be heard briefly, the production sounds very professional and the lyrics cover humanity's abuse of the planet.
In my opinion this is another great sounding track from breaths and if you are a fan of blackgaze, doomgaze, post metal and hardcore, you should check out their side of t he split.
In conclusion I feel this is a very great sounding split and i would recommend it to all fans of doom, post metal and blackgaze. 8 out of 10.
