Ambient style synths start off the ep before going into as heavier direction while the riffs also add in a decent amount of melody. At times the music also gets very atmospheric sounding and 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.
Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams while the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. Clean playing can also be heard on a couple of tracks along with the solos and leads also being done in a very dark yet melodic style when they are utilized, the ep closes with an instrumental.
Heyf plays a style of black metal that is very raw and atmospheric sounding as well as adding in elements of dark ambient to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover war, darkness and melancholy themes.
In my opinion Heyf are a very great sounding raw and atmospheric black metal duo with elements of dark ambient and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should c heck out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "War Specter II" and "To Those Who Are Gone". 8 out of 10.
