Forgotten Backyard are a band from the U.K that has had a couple of their releases reviewed as well as being interviewed by this zine before with a musical style that I would describe as being ritualistic dark ambient and this is a review of their 2012 album "Shatterd Plastic Angels" which was released by Kalpamantra.
Synths bring a very dark ambient, drone and ritualistic sound to the music with some influences from experimental and noise music along with a neo-classical felling at times and it is the only musical instrument that is present on this recording with the songs being long and epic in length.
Vocals are all spoken word parts mixed in with a great amount of sound effects, while the song themes cover dark and depressing themes, as for the production it has a very dark, primitive and ritualistic sound to it.
In my opinion this is another great recording from Forgotten Backyard and if you are a fan of this band, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "House Of Lunatic Silence" "He Hanged Himself" "Moment Of Realization" and "Awakening In The Shattered World". RECOMMENDED BUY.
