Odyrmos are a band from Greece and on this recording plays a mixture of black metal, dark ambient and dungeon synth with some touches of doom and heavy metal and this is a review of their 2021 album "For The Brightest Light" which will be released in June by BMC Productions.
Dark ambient style synths start off the album while the music also brings in a great amount of dungeon synth elements along with some songs being in a heavier direction. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style and the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams.
The riffs also add in a great amount of melody while some of the tracks are also instrumentals along with all of the drum beats also being programmed. One of the songs also introduces spoken word parts onto the album along with some influences of doom metal also being added in the slower sections of the music. clean playing can also be heard briefly. A couple of the tracks are also very long and epic in length and some of the melodies also show an influence of traditional metal.
On this recording Odyrmos keeps the dungeon synth and dark ambient elements of their previous release and mix it with black metal and touches of doom and classic metal to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very old school while the lyrics cover darkness and sorrow themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Odyrmos and if you are a fan of black metal, dark ambient and dungeon synth, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Ode To The Forgotten" "Quiet Despair" and "Every Last Moment". 8 out of 10.
