Ends Embrace are a solo project from Scottsdale, Arizona that plays an indigenous form of black metal and this is a review of his self released 2021 album "We Will never Die".
Apocalyptical sounds start off the album along with some Native American style instruments a few seconds later before going into a heavier musical direction. The riffs also add in a great amount of melody while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams and when the music speeds up a decent amount of blast b eats can also b e heard.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are are also done in a very dark yet melodic style while the songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. The songs also add in a great amount of old school influences along with the tremolo picking also giving the music more of a raw feeling when they are utilized in the mid tempo sections of the album as well as a couple of tracks also adding in a small amount of spoken word samples, clean playing can also b e heard on the closing teack.
Ends Embrace plays a style of indigenous black metal that is very raw sounding and heavily rooted in the classic style. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Navajo Lore, Culture and the effects organized religion has had on their communities.
In my opinion Ends Embrace are a very great sounding indigenous black metal solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Ripped Away" "As Time Comes To An End" and "The House Of God Burns". 8 out of 10.
