Sidirial are a band from St. Louis, Missouri that plays an industrial from of black metal and this is a review of their 2020 album "The Slumbering" which was re-issued in 2022 by Necrotic Records.
A very epic sounding intro starts off the album while also introducing synths into the music which also mixes in with the heavier sections of the songs at times. Spoken word parts can also b e heard briefly along with the music also adding in a great amount of industrial elements and the vocals are mostly grim black metal screams.
Most of the tracks are also very long and epic in length while the riffs also add in a decent amount of melody. Growls can also be heard at times along with all of the musical instruments on the recording also having a very powerful sound to them and when the music speeds up a small amount of blast b eats can also be heard
Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing along with one song also introducing spoken word parts and clear vocals into the music as well as the guitar leads also being done in a very melodic style when they are utilized, one of the tracks is also an instrumental. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics are based upon H.P Lovecraft's cosmic hyper-dimensional creatures and each track also covers a different entity.
In my opinion Sidirial are a very great sounding industrial black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Children Of The Deep" "Madness Divine" and "Great Demise". 8 out of 10.
