Eyelids are a band from Italy that has been featured before in this zine and plays a depressive form of black metal and this is a review of their self released 2017 album "Endless Oblivion".
Atmospheric sounding synths start off the album and after awhile heavy guitars and depressive black metal screams are added onto the recording and when guitar leads are utilized they are don in a very melodic fashion and you can also hear all of the musical instruments that are present on the recording.
Clean playing can be heard briefly and touches of the modern atmospheric sound can also be heard at times and there is also a brief use of acoustic guitars and when the music finally speeds up a small amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the song a more raw feeling while the main focus is on a slow or mid paced musical direction.
Eyelids creates another recording that remains true to the depressive black metal style of previous releases, the production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover melancholy, depression, and solitude themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Eyelids and if you are a fan of depressive black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "II" and "VI". 8 out of 10.
