Synths start off the album before going into a very fast and raw musical direction which also utilizes a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Vocals are a mixture of deep growls and high pitched black metal screams while most of the tracks are also very long and epic in length.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while the music also brings a very modern approach to the genre. A small amount of dark sounding melodies can also be heard in some of the guitar riffing at times and all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them, one track also adds in a brief use of soundscapes and spoken words are also added towards the end.
Akyros Expanse plays a style of black metal that is very raw, aggressive and modern sounding. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover darkness, space and void themes.
In my opinion Akyros Expanse are a very great sounding dense, hypnotic and oppressive black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genres, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Storms Of Reverence" and "Vomiting Spectral Mass". 8 out of 10.
