United Kingdom's solo project Ewigkeit has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for more of an experimental, avant garde and progressive form of metal with some touches of black metal of previous releases and this is a review of their 022 ep "Out Of The Woods" which will be released on July 23rd by D.T.M Productions and consists of tracks originally written for Norway's In The Woods.
Heavy riffing and clear vocals start off the ep while the riffs also add in a great amount of melody. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style along with the music also having its experimental and avant garde moments and all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
At times the music also gets very progressive sounding while one track also adds in a brief use of grim black metal screams. The songs also bring back some of the style In the Woods, Tiamat and Katatonia experimented with in the mid 90's when they where moving away from an extreme metal style, when the music speeds up a small amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the ep more of a raw feeling.
On this recording Ewigkeit goes for more of the modern direction In The Woods went on recent releases but with more black metal touches than their newer material. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover chaotic events.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Ewigkeit and if you are a fan of experimental, avant garde and progressive metal with some black metal touches, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Evergreen". 8 out of 10.
