Dalla Nebbia/Thy Pale Form/2013 EP Review


  Dalla  Nebbia  are  a  duo  from  South  Carolina  that  plays  a  very  atmospheric  and  progressive  form  of  black  metal  and  this  is  a  review  of  their  self  released  2012  ep  "Thy  Pale  Form".

  Drum  programming  ranges  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  beats,  while  the  synths  bring  a  very  dark,  atmospheric  and  progressive  sound  to  the  music,  as  for  the  bass  playing  it  has  a  very  strong  and  powerful  sound  with  heavy  riffing  that  dominates  throughout  the  recording.

  Rhythm  guitars  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  atmospheric  black  metal  riffs  that  also  utilize  elements  of  progressive  and  post  rock  in  the  riffing  as  well  as  a  great  amount  of  melody  to  create  a  sound  of  their  own,  while  the  lead  guitars  are  very   melodic  and  atmospheric  sounding  post  black  metal  guitar  solos  and  leads,  as  for  the  acoustic  guitars  they  use  finger  picking  and  full  chords  to  enhance  the  progressive  elements  of  the  ep.

  Vocals  range  from  grim  sounding  black  metal  screams  to  deep  death  metal  growls  as  well  as  a  brief  use  of  clean  singing,  while  the  lyrics  cover  dark  and  philosophical  themes,  as  for  the  production  it  has  a  very  dark,  raw  and  primitive  sound  while  you  can  still  hear  all  of  the  musical  instruments  that  are  present  on  this  recording  with  the  songs  being  very  long  and  epic  in  length.

  In  my  opinion  Dalla  Nebbia  are  a  very  great  sounding  atmospheric,  progressive  black metal  band  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  this  musical  genre,  you  should  check  out  this  ep.  RECOMMENDED  TRACK  "The  Apex  Of  Human  Sorrow".  RECOMMENDED  BUY.

  1. Dalla Nebbia will be releasing their debut full length "Cusp of the Void" this year via Razed Soul Productions. It will be their first recording with a complete line up.
