Siren's Rain are a band from Lakewood, Washington that plays folk metal and this is a review of their self released 2021 album "Rise Forth" which will b e released in October.
Rain and thunder sounds start off the album along with some poetic spoken word parts a few seconds later before adding into some nature sounds and also going into a heavier musical direction. Black metal screams are also utilized quite a bit throughout the recording and all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
Some of the tracks are also very long and epic in length while clean pagan vocals are also a very huge part of the album. Folk instruments can also be heard in certain sections of t he recording along with the solos and leads being done in a very melodic style and when the music speeds up a decent amount of blast beats can also be heard.
Clean female vocals are also added on some of the songs along with the tracks also adding in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. One song also introduces clean playing onto the album as well as some angry sounding shouts also being utilized more as the recording progresses. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Greek, Viking and Pacific Northwest Mythology.
In my opinion Siren's Rain are a very great sounding folk metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Keepers" "Pennies For The Ferryman" and "Discarded hope". 8 out of 10.
