Blossom are a duo from Minnesota that plays post black metal and this is a review of their 2022 album "Death's Serenade" which will b e released on August 5th by Oak, Ash & Thorn Records.
Clean playing which also returns on later tracks starts off the album while the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic post metal style along with the synths also giving the songs more of an atmospheric feeling when t hey are utilized. Clear singing can also b e heard at times and the vocals mostly vocals on high pitched black metal screams.
Growls can also be heard at times which also add in a touch of death metal while the riffs also add in a decent amount of melody. The faster sections of the songs also adding in a decent amount of blast beats and tremolo picking which also gives the music more of a raw feeling and the songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts.
whispers can also be heard briefly along with one song also adding in a brief use of spoken word parts and as the album progresses a small amount of tragic sounding pianos can also be heard as well as one song also being an instrumental. The production sounds very dark and r aw while the lyrics cover adventure, human struggle and environmental calamity.
In my opinion Blossom are a very great sounding post black metal b and and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Lading Luminaries Guide The Path" "The Knees Buckle Under The Pressure" "Influenced by Beauty And Melancholy" and "Death's Serenade". 8 out of 10.
