Born/Self Titled/2004 EP Review


  Born  where  a  band  from  Milwaukee,  Wisconsin  that  played  electro-acoustic  music  with  elements  of  stoner  and  doom  metal  and  this  is  a  review  of  their  self  titled  and self  released  2004  ep.

  Programming  and  fx's  bring  in  elements  of  experimental,  industrial,  and  avant  garde  to  the   music,  while  the  acoustic  guitars  use  finger  picking  and  full  chords  to  add psychedelic  and  folk  elements  to  the  recording  while  still  being  very  experimental,  along  with  some  electric  guitars  being  used  at  times  which  brings  in  the  metal  elements  along  with  some  solo's.

  Vocals  range  from  spoken  word  parts  to  deep  death  metal  growls  and  high  pitched  screams  as  well  as  some  clean  singing  gothic  vocals,  while  the  lyrics  cover  violent  and  hateful  themes,  as  for  the  production  it  has  a  very  dark,  heavy,  raw  and  primitive  sound  to  it.

  In  my  opinion  Born  where  a  very  great  sounding  electro-acoustic,  avant  garde  metal  band  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  this  musical  genre,  you  should  check  out  this  ep.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "Flowering  Corpses"  and  "The  World  Is  My  Shotgun".  RECOMMENDED  BUY.
