This is a review of a split album between Pennsylvania's Black Urn and Moros which will be self released on February 27th in 2017 and we will start off the review with Black urn a band that plays a blackened form of sludge metal.
Their side of the split starts out with acoustic guitar playing along with some stringed instruments a few seconds later and after awhile the music goes into a heavier direction along with a mixture of death metal growls and black metal screams and the slow riffing is heavily influenced by sludge and doom metal.
Some of the riffs also adding in a small amount of dark sounding melodies and their track is over 7 minutes in length and you can also hear all of the musical instruments that are present on their side of the split, the production sounds very dark and heavy while the lyrics cover dark spirituality themes.
In my opinion Black Urn are a very great sounding blackened sludge metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out t heir side of the split.
Next up is Moros a band that plays a mixture of doom and sludge metal.
Their side of the split starts out with powerful sounding bass guitars along with some distorted reverb that also leads up to a heavier and melodic direction as well as adding high pitched sludge style screams onto the recording along with the riffs adding in the heaviness of doom metal and all 3 of their tracks stick to a very slow musical direction while the second song adds in a small amount of death metal growls, the production sounds very dark and heavy while the lyrics cover dark themes.
In my opinion Moros are a very great sounding mixture of sludge and doom metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Vortexwound".
In conclusion i feel this is a very great sounding split and would recommend it to all fans of black, sludge, and doom metal. 8 out of 10.
