Florida's Worm have returned with a new recording which shows them moving even more further away from the black metal style of previous releases and expanding on the funeral doom metal style they introduced on the last album and this is a review of their 2021 album "Foreverglade" which will be released in October by 20 Buck Spin.
Dark soundscapes start off the album along with some clean playing a few seconds later while all of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them. Synths are also added into some parts of the music and also give the songs more of an atmospheric feeling when they are utilized.
Elements of funeral doom metal can be heard in the slower sections of the songs while the riffs also add in a decent amount of dark sounding melodies. Vocals are mostly deep death metal growls along with some black metal screams also being utilized at times and the songs also add in a decent amount of 90's influences.
Some of the tracks are also very long and epic in length along with the solos and leads also being done in a very dark, melodic yet old school style when they are utilized as well as one track also adding in a brief use of tortured yet clear vocals and as the album progresses a brief use of fast playing and blast beats can also be heard. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover darkness, death and necromancy themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Worm and if you are a fan of blackened funeral doom metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Murk Above The Dark Moor" and "Empire Of The necromancers". 8 out of 10.
