Cornucopia Ov Nonexistence are a 1 man band from the United Kingdom that plays an ambient form of depressive black metal and this is a review of his self released 2013 ep "Birth Is The Only Gate To Abysmal Death".
"Life Is Only Razor Cut Deep" begins with some dark ambient sounding synths and after a few seconds the drum beats start kicking in which leads up to some depressive sounding black metal screams and after awhile heavy guitar riffs are added into the song and before the end of the song they start utilizing some dark sounding melodies.
"Maze Of Mirrors" begins with some dark depressive black metal guitar riffs along with some drums and then the grim suicidal screams start kicking in and towards the end there is a brief use of noise effects.
"Birth Is The Only Gate To Abysmal Death" begins with some dark and heavy guitar riffs and drums along with some distorted sounding black metal screams and growls and after a couple of minutes the guitar riffing brings in some ambient and drone sounds.
Song lyrics cover dark and depressive themes, while the production has a very dark, raw and primitive sound to it.
In my opinion Cornucopia Ov Nonexistence are a very great sounding depressive black metal project and if you are a fan of this musical genre you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Maze Of Mirrors". RECOMMENDED.
