Fulaing are a band from Raleigh, North Carolina that plays a very melodic and depressive form of black metal with elements of folk, funeral doom and death metal and this is a review of their self released 2025 ep "An End Held Dear".
Acoustic guitars and stringed instruments start off the ep which also adds in touches of folk music while clear vocals can also be heard briefly. When the music speeds up a decent amount of tremolo picking and blast beats are also utilized which also gives the recording more of a raw feeling.
Harsh vocals are a mixture of depressive black metal screams and death metal screams while the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style. All of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them along with the riffs also adding in a decent amount of melody and the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts, spoken words can also be heard briefly and the slower sections of the songs also add in elements of funeral doom metal.
Fulaing plays a musical style that takes the melodic and depressive forms of black metal and mixes them with funeral doom, death metal and folk music to create something very different. The production sounds very raw and heavy while the lyrics cover suffering, loss, melancholy and longing for more.
In my opinion Fulaing are a very great sounding melodic and depressive black emtal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACK "An End Held Dear". 8 out of 10.
