DÖMD are a solo project from Sweden that plays a very raw form of black metal and this is a review of his self released 2021 demo "I skuggan av ringmuren".
A very hard and heavy sound starts off the demo along with some drum beats while the solos and leads are done in a very dark yet melodic style. Vocals are mostly grim sounding black metal screams along with the riffs also adding in a decent amount of melody and when the music speeds up a decent amount of blast beats can be heard.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while the tremolo picking also gives the songs more of a raw feeling. The songs also add in a good balance between old school and modern influences along with one track also adding in a brief use of folk instruments before returning back to a heavier direction.
DÖMD plays a style of black metal that is very raw and traditional sounding. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are written in Swedish and cover myths, folklore, nature and darkness themes.
In my opinion DÖMD are a very great sounding raw black metal solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this demo. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Vi som dog med svärdet i hand" and "Den gråtande jungfrun". 8 out of 10.
