Blood Brain Barrier are a band from Canada that plays a progressive mixture of black, sludge and doom metal and this is a review of their self released 2025 ep "Windows Drenched In Blood' which will be released in July.
A very fast and raw sound starts off the ep along with a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Elements of sludge and doom metal are also added into the slower sections of the songs while the vocals are a mixture of high pitched black metal screams and growls and all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very dark yet melodic style while the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. Dark sounding melodies can also be heard in some of the guitar riffing along with some of the tracks also being very long and epic in length, the recording also has its progressive moments and clean playing as well as some clear singing can also be heard on a few tracks.
Blood Brain Barrier plays a musical style that takes a very raw and progressive form of black metal and mixes it with sludge and doom metal to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover dark themes.
In my opinion Blood Brain Barrier are a very great sounding progressive 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 "Testing The Waters" and "Desire To Be Thoughtless". 8 out of 10.
