A dungeon synth orientated sound starts off the album while clean playing can also be heard briefly before going into a very fast and r aw musical direction which also utilizes a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams and the recording also has its atmospheric moments.
Throughout the album you can also h ear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while the music also adds in a lot of old school influences. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing along with some of the songs also adding in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts, a couple of tracks are also instrumentals and the closing song is also very long and epic in length.
On this recording Despondent Moon takes his raw and lo-fi mixture of black metal and dungeon synth into more of an atmospheric direction. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover darkness, death, evil and occultism themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Despondent Moon and if you are a fan of raw and lo-fi black metal and dungeon synth, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Frost Beneath The Vast Light" and "The Veil of The Wintermoon". 8 out of 10.
