Eye Of Fenris are an international band with members from Denmark, Portugal and the United States that plays viking metal with elements of black and melodic death metal and this is a review of their self released 2023 album "The House Of Hades"
Clean playing starts off the album before going into a heavier direction while the vocals are a mixture of black metal screams and death metal growls. Melodies are also added into a lot of the guitar riffing along with all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them and clean singing can also be heard at times.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style while the faster sections of the song also add in a decent amount of blast beats. Elements of thrash and groove metal can also be heard at times along with a couple of the songs also adding in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts, synths can also be heard briefly which also adds in touch of industrial and most of the album sticks to a mid tempo direction and one track also adds in a brief use of folk instruments.
Eye Of Fenris plays a musical style that takes viking, black and melodic death metal and mixes them together to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Greek Mythology themes.
In my opinion Eye of Fenris are a very great sounding melodic mixture of viking, black and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Spartans Rise" "The Labyrinth Of Minos" {"Medusa's Lair" and "All Hail Hades". 8 out of 10.
