Druadan Forest are a solo project from Finland that has had music reviewed before in this zine and plays an epic mixture of black metal, ambient and dungeon synth and this is a review of his 2019 album "Dismal Spells From The Dragonrealm" which will be released in September by Werewolf.
Synths start off the album and they are also very heavily rooted in the dungeon synth as well as using a variety of many different sounding keys style while all of the tracks are very long and epic in length. Elements of ambient can also be heard quite a bit throughout the recording and most of the music is dominated by synths.
At times the music also captures the atmosphere of a fantasy movie soundtrack while spoken word parts can also be heard in certain sections of the recording. Some parts of the music also bring grim sounding black metal screams as well as some nature sounds also being utilized at times.
On this Druadan Forest plays a mixture of black metal, dungeon synth, and dark ambient to create a sound of his own. The production sounds very dark while the lyrics cover Fantasy themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding from Druadan Forest and if you are a fan of black metal, dungeon synth and dark ambient and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Unsung Spell Of No Solace" and "No Stars Upon The Black Sea Of Macrocosm". 8 out of 10.
