Offernat are a band from Denmark that plays a mixture of black, sludge and doom metal and this is a review of their 2024 album "Where Nothing Grows" which will be released on March 29th by Indisciplinarian.
Atmospheric sounding drones start off the album before going into more of a heavier direction while the riffs also add in a decent amount of melody. Elements of sludge and doom metal are also added into the slower sections of the songs along with most of the tracks also being very long and epic in length.
All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them while the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams along with the faster sections of the songs also adding in a decent amount of blast beats.
When tremolo picking is added into the faster riffing they also give the songs more of a raw feeling. Throughout the recording you can also hear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts as well as some tracks also adding in a small amount of clean playing, at time s the vocals also go into more of an angry shouting direction. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover alienation themes.
In my opinion Offernat are a very great sounding mixture of black, sludge and doom metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Grief" and "Funeral Fantasy". 8 out of 10.
