Stringed instruments start off the album before going into a heavier direction while the riffs also add in a great amount of melody. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams along with the faster sections of the recording also adding in a lot of tremolo picking and blast b eats which also gives the music more of a raw feeling.
Clear amle and female singing can also be heard at times while the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. A lot of the music goes into an experimental direction along with the album also having its atmospheric moments and the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic post metal style.
Clean playing is also utilized quite a bit throughout the album along with a couple of songs also adding in a small amount of spoken words and synths are also added into certain sections of the recording as well as a good portion of the tracks also adding in a lot of progressive touches, saxophones can also be heard briefly and the closing track is a Bathory cover . The production sounds very professional while the lyrics clarity forged through struggle.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from Firtan and if you are a fan of atmospheric, experimental and progressive post black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Kalikas Tongue" "Ascension" "The Form Revealed" and "Man Of Iron". 8 out of 10.
