Oregon's solo projects Mizmor and Hell team up together and bring out a mixture of black, sludge and doom metal and this is a review of their 2025 collaboration album "Alluvion" which will be released in April by Gilead Media.
Clean playing starts off the album before going into a heavier direction while the slower sections of the songs also bring in elements of sludge and doom metal. All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them and most of the tracks are also very long and epic in length.
Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams. Growls and shouts can also be heard at times along with some of the tracks also adding in a small amount of clean playing as well as some chanting choirs also being utilized briefly.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very dark yet melodic style along with one of the tracks also being an instrumental and when the music finally speeds up a small amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the recording more of a raw feeling. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover psychic distress.
In my opinion this is a very great sounding recording from Mizmor and Hell and if you are a fan of black, sludge and doom metal, you should check out this collaboration. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Begging To Be Lost" and "Pandemonium's Throat". 8 out of 10.
