Dominium/The Incursion/Forbidden Records/2012 EP Review

  Dominium  are  a  band  from  Richmond,  Virginia  that  plays  a  very  raw  and  primitive  form  of  black  metal  and  this  is  a  review  of  their  2012  ep  "The  Incursion"  which  was  released  by  Forbidden  Records.

  Drums  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  drumming  with  a  good  amount  of  blast  beats  being  thrown  into  the  riffing,  while  the  bass  playing  has  a  very  dark  tone  with  primitive  riffing  that  dominates  throughout  the  recording.

  Rhythm  guitars  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  black  metal  riffs  that  are  very  heavy,  raw  and  primitive  sounding  with  some  death  metal  influences  being  thrown  into  the  riffing,  while  the  lead  guitars  which  are  only  utilized  on  the  last  song  are  very  raw  and  primitive  sounding  black  metal  guitar  solos  and  leads.

  Vocals  are  mostly  high  pitched  black  metal  screams  with  some  deep  death  metal  growls  being  thrown  into  the  music  at  times,  while  the  lyrics  cover  dark  and  unholy  themes,  as  for  the  production  it  has  a  very  dark,  heavy,  raw  and  primitive  sound  to  it.

  In  my  opinion  Dominium  are  a  very  great  sounding  heavy,  dark ,  raw  and  primitive  sounding  black  metal  band  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  this  musical  genre,  you  should  check  out  this  ep.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "Enter  Damnation"  and  "With  Blade,  Kingdom  Conceived".  RECOMMENDED  BUY.
