Skyfall are a solo project from Sweden that plays an instrumental, symphonic and orchestral mixture of black and death metal and this is a review of his 2020 album "Sleeping Forest" which will be released on June 26th by Trullpanter Productions.
Stringed instruments start off the album along with some synths a few seconds later while the music also mixes in a great amount of symphonic and orchestra elements. When the music speeds up a great amount of blast beats can be heard along with the riffs also adding in aa lot of melody.
A lot of the music is also very heavily rooted in black metal while the songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. A couple of the tracks are also very long and epic in length along with some songs also showing an influence of death metal as well as the music also having its progressive moments and as the album progresses a brief use of classical guitars can also be heard.
Skyfall plays a musical style that takes black and death metal and mixes them with symphonic and orchestra elements to create a sound of his own as well as keeping everything instrumental and the production also sounds very dark.
In my opinion Skyfall are a very great sounding instrumental, symphonic and orchestral mixture of black and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this solo project. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Awakening" "Decadence" "Sleeping Forest" and "Desolation". 8 out of 10.
