The Will Of A Million are a 1 man band from Springfield, Oregon that plays a very atmospheric form of cascadian black metal and this is a review of their 2012 album "A Lull" which was released by Glossolalia Records.
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 and at times they have a very powerful sound to them, as for the synths which are only used briefly bring a very dark and atmospheric sound to the album.
Rhythm guitars range from slow, mid paced to fast cascadian black metal riffs that are very atmospheric, raw and primitive sounding with some melody and post rock elements being thrown into the riffing , while the lead guitars are very melodic sounding cascadian black metal guitar solos and leads, as for the acoustic guitars when they are utilized use finger picking to bring a progressive feeling to the album.
Vocals are mostly grim sounding black metal screams with some deep growls, clean singing and spoken word parts being utilized at times, while the lyrics cover nature and poetic themes, as for the production it has a very heavy, raw and primitive sound while you can still hear all of the musical instruments that are present on this recording with some of the songs being long and epic in length.
In my opinion The Will Of A Million are a very great sounding atmospheric, cascadian black metal project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Oceans" "Impartial Winds" and "Silent Eyes". RECOMMENDED BUY.
