Gaul are a band from Florida that plays a mixture of depressive black metal and doom and this is a review of their self released 2012 album which was released by Dullest Records.
Drums range from slow to mid paced playing with some fast drumming and 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 and at times they have a very powerful sound to them.
Rhythm guitars range from slow, mid paced to fast riffs that combine depressive black metal with doom as well as throwing in some melody, sludge and post rock influences to create a sound of their own, while the lead guitars are very dark sounding black/doom metal guitar leads.
Vocals are all grim sounding depressive black metal screams, while the lyrics cover darkness and dying themes, as for the production it has a very dark, heavy, raw and primitive sound with the songs being very long and epic in length.
In my opinion Gaul are a very great sounding hybrid of depressive black metal and doom and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Awaken" and "Funeral". RECOMMENDED BUY.
