Poland's Above Aurora has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for an atmospheric mixture of black and doom metal and this is a review of their 2024 album "Myriad Woes" which will be released in march by War Anthem Records.
Dark sounding synths start off the album along with some drums a few seconds later while clean playing can also be heard on a few tracks. At times the music also gets very atmospheric sounding as well as one song also adding in a brief use of spoken word parts and the slower sections of the songs bring in elements of doom metal.
Melodies can also be heard in some of the guitar riffing while the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style. When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the album more of a raw feeling and all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
Vocals are done in mostly an angry black metal style along with the songs also adding in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. Acoustic guitars can also be heard briefly as well as a couple of the tracks also being very long and epic in length. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover disappointment, inner struggles and fertility.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from Above Aurora and if you are a fan of atmospheric black and doom metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Inner Whispers" and "Horns Of Dread". 8 out of 10.
