Flowers Of Flesh are a solo project from Cleveland, Ohio that plays a blackened form of sludge metal and this is a review of his self released and s elf titled 2021 ep.
A very slow, dark and heavy sludge metal sound starts off the ep while you van also hear all of the musical instruments that are present on the recording. Vocals are a mixture of growls and grim black metal screams along with the guitar leads also being done in a very dark style and melodies are also added into some of the riffing.
Most of the music also sticks to either a slow or mid tempo direction while a small amount of blast beats can be heard on a couple of tracks during the faster sections of the recording. Touches of doom and death metal are also utilized at times and the closing track also adds in a small amount of cello's.
Flowers Of Flesh plays a musical style that takes black and sludge metal and mixes them together to create a sound of his own. The production sounds very dark and heavy while the lyrics cover decay and cynicism themes.
In my opinion Flowers Of Flesh are a very great sounding blackened sludge metal solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Rat Scum" and "Death Envy". 8 out of 10.
