Jumalhamara are a band from Finland that started out as a very psychedelic and post form of black metal but go into a dark ambient/organ direction with this recording. and this is a review of their 2013 album "Resitaali" which was released by Ahdistuksen Aihio Productions.
Synths start off the recording and they use a variety of many different sounding keys which gives the album an almost folk music feeling as well as being all instrumental on the first song and all of the 4 tracks are very long and epic in length.
Synths and organs are the only musical instruments that are present on this recording with no vocals or guitars being present and all of the songs are instrumental and there are a good amount of minimal neo-classical elements being mixed with dark ambient through out the recording.
With this recording Jumalhamara stay away from the metal aspects of their earlier recordings and let the synths and organs take over which results in a very dark and meditative sounding ambient album and all of the tracks are very well produced.
In my opinion this is a very decent sounding recording from Jumalhamara, while some of their more black metal fans might hate it, I can see this album appealing to fans of dark meditative ambient music. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "I" and "Iv". 7/5 out of 10.
