Greece's duo Dodsferd have returned with a new recording which shows the music going for an atmospheric, depressive and misanthropic form of black metal and this is a review of their 2021 ep "Skotos" which will be released in May by Transcending Obscurity Records.
A very fast and raw sound starts off the ep along with a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats while the vocals are mostly high pitched depressive black metal screams. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style and a small amount of melody is also added into the guitar riffing.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them. The music also has its atmospheric moments as well as all of the music also sticking to a heavier musical direction.
On this recording Dodsferd adds in atmospheric guitar leads into their raw, depressive and misanthropic style of black metal to take their sound to another level. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover misanthropy, death and suicide themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Dodsferd and if you are a fan of this duo, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Cursed To Die At First Light". 8 out of 10.
