Pennsylvania's solo project Robes Of Snow has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for a folk music inspired form of atmospheric black metal and this is a review of his 2023 album "Fall's Resplendence" which will be released on October 27, 2023 by Fiadh Productions.
Acoustic guitars start off the album which also mixes in with the heavier sections of the songs at times and also brings in elements of folk music while Appalachian style instruments can also be heard briefly. When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats are also utilized which also gives the album more of a raw feeling.
Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal scrams while the synths also give the music more of a raw feeling when they are added into the music. A great portion of the tracks are also very long and epic in length along with the songs also adding in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts.
Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing along with the solos and leads also being done in a very melodic style as well as one song also bringing in a brief use of spoken word parts as well as a couple of the tracks also being instrumentals. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover the different aspects of the autumn season.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from Robes Of Snow and if you are a fan of folk inspired atmospheric black metal, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Every Falling Leaf" "Queen Of Winter" and "The Longest Night". 8 out of 10.
