Eyelessight are a duo from Italy that has been featured before in this zine and on this recording went for a very depressive form of post black metal and this is a review of their 2018 album "Athazagorafobia" which will be released in December by Tallheim Records.
A very dark yet heavy sound starts off the album while all of the songs are also very long and epic in length. When clean playing is utilized it also adds in elements of post rock along with all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them and the vocals are mostly high pitched depressive black metal screams.
Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while some of the tracks also add in a small amount of clear singing. When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can also be heard which also gives the album more of a raw feeling and the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with one song also adding in a brief use of spoken words, female vocals are also utilized at times. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics are written in Italian and cover solitude, melancholy, nostalgia, memories and loss.
In my opinion this was another great sounding recording from Eyelessight and if you are a fan of depressive post black metal, you should check out this re-issue. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Nostomania" "Monofobia" and "Vuota Solitudine". 8 out of 10.
