Dødehender are a duo from Italy that plays a very raw, melodic and depressive from of black metal and this is a review of their 2020 ep "A Cursed Child Made Careless Mistakes In A Place Laden With Memories" which was released by Callisto Records.
A very fast and raw sound starts off the ep which also uses a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Vocals are mostly high pitched yet depressive black metal screams while the riffs also add in some melodies and the music is also heavily rooted in the 90's and early 2000's style.
The solos and leads also add in a great amount of melody while the songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts as well as the sounds of babies crying also being utilized briefly along with one track also adding in a brief use of nature sounds and classical guitars before returning back to a heavier direction, spoken word parts can also be heard briefly towards the end.
Dødehender plays a style of black metal that is very raw, melodic, depressive and traditional sounding. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics have a concept involving a cursed child and dog.
In my opinion Dødehender are a very great sounding raw, melodic and depressive black metal duo and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACK "The Cursed Dog Has Stopped Trying To Think Through The Winds Of Death". 8 out of 10.
