Possessive are a band from Boise, Idaho that plays a mixture of black, doom and death metal with elements of d beat and power violence and this is a review of their 2024 album "Res Ipsa Loquitur" which was released by Brucia Records.
Dark and atmospheric soundscapes start off the album before going into a heavier doom metal direction while the vocals are mostly black metal screams. Some of the tracks are also very long and epic in length along with some death metal growls also being utilized at times and all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
Elements of d beat and power violence are also added in the mid tempo sections of the album while blast beats and tremolo picking are also utilized when the music speeds up. Some of the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and one song is also a drone orientated instrumental.
Possessive plays a musical style that takes black, doom, death metal, d beat and power violence and mixes them together to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover dark themes.
In my opinion Possessive are a very great sounding mixture of black, doom, death metal, d beat and power violence and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Sun And Moon" and "Sure Sign of The Nail". 8 out of 10.
