Vit are a band from Ohio that plays black metal with elements of doom and experimental and this is a review of their self released 2010 album "_" which was re-issued and remastered during the year of 2012.
Drums range from slow, mid paced to fast drumming with some blast beats being utilized at times, while the bass playing has a very dark tone with riffs that follow the riffing that are coming out of the guitars.
Rhythm guitars range from slow, mid paced to fast black metal riffs that utilize some primitive elements as well as influences from experimental, doom metal and post rock to create a sound of their own as well as a brief use of clean playing, while the lead guitars which are only used for a couple of seconds are very dark sounding black/doom metal guitar leads, as for the acoustic guitars which are only used briefly use full chords and finger picking to add an Americana/folk music feeling to the album.
Vocals are mostly grim sounding black metal screams along with a brief use of deep doom/death metal growls, while the lyrics cover darkness, anti religious and occult themes, as for the production it has a very dark, heavy, raw and primitive sound to it with some of the songs being long and epic in length.
In my opinion Vit are a very great sounding hybrid of occult black metal, experimental and doom and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Swansylvania" and "Puritan Ossuary". RECOMMENDED BUY.
