Brazil's Jupiterian have returned with a new recording which shows the music going for an atmospheric mixture of funeral doom/death and sludge metal and this is a review of their 2020 album "Protosapien" which was released by Transcending Obscurity Records.
Atmospheric soundscapes and synths start off the album before going into a heavier direction while the solos and leads are also done in a very dark yet melodic style. All of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them along with the slower riffing also adding in elements of funeral doom metal.
Vocals are mostly deep death metal growls while the screams also add in touches of black metal. The music also brings in the heaviness of sludge metal along with some spoken word parts also being added into certain sections of the recording and whispered vocals can also be heard briefly.
The music also has its atmospheric moments along with some of the tracks also being very long and epic in length. Dark sounding melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing as well as a brief use of blast beats when the music finally speeds up and most of the music sticks to either a slow or mid tempo direction. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Occultism, Mythology, Cosmos, Science Fiction, Horror and the writings of H.P Lov3ecraft.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Jupiterian and if you are a fan of atmospheric funeral doom/death and sludge metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Mere Humans" and "Earthling Bloodline". 8 out of 10.
