Finland's solo project Wyrmwoods has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for more of an experimental, progressive, avant garde and atmospheric style of black metal and this is a review of his 2022 album "No Moon No Sun" which will be released in November by Inverse Records.
Bass guitars and synths start off the album before going into more of a heavier and avant garde musical direction. Saxophones can also be heard at times which also add in a touch of jazz while the clean sections also gives the music more of a progressive feeling along with the riffs also add in a decent amount of melody.
When the music speeds up a great amount of blast beats can be heard at times along with the songs also going into more of an experimental direction at times. Vocals are a mixture of death metal growls and black metal screams and the songs also add in a decent balance between slow, mid paced and fast parts as well as one song also adding in a brief use of tremolo picking in the faster sections of the music..
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style along with the music also having its atmospheric moments as well as some tracks also adding in touches of ambient, female vocals can also be heard briefly, as the album progresses a couple of instrumentals can be heard and a couple of the songs are also very long and epic in length. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics darkness, death, philosophical and mythological themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Wyrmwoods and if you are a fan of experimental, progressive, avant garde and atmospheric black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Year Of Death" "Woe And Wailing" and "Labyrinths Of The Mind". 8 out of 10.
