The Voices is a solo project from Italy that plays a mixture of experimental, avant garde and A Capella and this is a review of his 2020 album "If Nightmares Could Sing" which was released by Masked Dead Records.
Operatic vocals start off the album along with some grim spoken word parts also being used at times while demonic death metal growls are also added into some parts of the recording, militant beats can also be heard in the background briefly as well as some normal sounding spoken word parts also being added in some parts of the recording.
Throat singing can also be heard briefly and they give the music more of a shamanistic feeling while the songs also have their experimental and avant garde moments. All of the tracks also sound very different from each other along with a great amount of A Capella style vocals being utilized
Grim black metal screams are also added into certain sections of the recording along with the songs also mixing in elements of ambient, ethnic, dark rock, industrial, dance, space, jazz and classical music and vocals are also the main instrument on the recording. The production sounds very dark while the lyrics cover nightmare themes.
In my opinion The Voices is a very great sounding mixture of experimental, avant garde, A Capella and extreme metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this solo project. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Prison of Fear" "Soulless" "What I Hate" and "Let's Not Pretend". 8 out of 10.
