Greece's solo project Apocalyptic Leaders has returned with a new recording which shows the music going for an instrumental, atmospheric, melodic and raw form of black metal with elements of doom metal and dungeon synth and this is a review of his self titled and self released 2025 ep.
A very dark and heavy sound starts off the ep while the solo and leads are also done in a very melodic style. When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the recording more of a raw feeling and the riffs also add in a great amount of melody.
At times the music also gets very atmospheric sounding while the synths also add in elements of dungeon synth and orchestral touches. The songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with a couple of tracks also being very long and epic in length, influences of doom metal and crust are also added into certain sections of the ep.
On this recording Apocalyptic leaders brings in 3 tracks of raw, melodic and atmospheric black metal along with 2 dungeon synth tracks as well as keeping everything instrumental while the production sounds very dark and raw.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Apocalyptic Leaders and if you are a fan of raw, melodic and atmospheric black metal, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "I" and "V". 8 out of 10.
