This is a review of a 3 way split between Inner Mongolia, China's Tengger Cavalry, Nine Treasures and Ego Fall called "Mongol Metal which was released by a label that also shares the same name of the album and we will review the songs from Ego Fall first band that plays a mixture of folk metal, melodic death metal and metalcore.
A powerful sounding bass guitar starts off their first song along with some tribal beats and melodic yet heavy riffing and the music also mixes in folk instruments that also gives their song s more of an ethnic feeling and the vocals have some type of shamanistic style chanting and they also bring in black metal screams and some of their songs mix in growls and elements of melodic death metal and metalcore along with a touch of electronic music and the y also add in a small amount of guitar leads, spoken word parts and female vocals, the production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover the ethnic themes of their homeland.
In my opinion Ego Fall are a very great sounding folk metal band with elements of black, melodic death metal and metalcore and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band and their side of the split. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Wind the Horn" and "The Legend".
