This is a review of a split album between Italy's Pseudodoxia and U.SA's The Sun And The Mirror called "The Eerie And Radiant Doorless Rooms Of Pain" which was released by Brucia Records and we will start off the review with Pseudodoxia a duo that plays a mixture of dark ambient, drone, doom metal, experimental and noise with some touches of black metal.
Their side of the split starts out with some atmospheric sounding drones along with some clear vocals a few seconds later. At times the music also gets very experimental sounding as well as adding some noises in certain sections of the songs and the bass guitars also ad d in the heaviness of doom metal.
Melodic guitar leads can also be heard briefly along with the heavier sections of the songs also showing an influence of black metal. Screams can also be heard at times along with both of the tracks also sounding different from each other and touches of dark ambient are also added in some parts of their music, spoken word parts can also be heard briefly and a small amount of melody can also be heard in some of the guitar riffing. The production sounds very dark while the lyrics cover suffering themes.
In my opinion Pseudodoxia are a very great sounding mixture of dark ambient, drone, doom metal, experimental and noise with some touches of black metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this duo. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Holy : PIG : Solace".
Next up is The Sun And The Mirror a duo that plays a mixture of dark orchestral, doom metal, drone, folk, minimalistic noise and psychedelic.
Their side of the split starts out with some atmospheric sounding drones along with some heavy yet melodic riffing a few seconds later that also brings elements of doom metal onto their side of the recording. Their only track is also over 22 minutes in length and at times the music gets very experimental sounding.
Clean vocals are also added into certain sections of the track as well as adding in a touch of neo-folk. When cello's are utilized they also add in more of an orchestral touch and the song also mixes in touches of noise, minimalism and psychedelia as well as always sticking to a slower direction and the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style. The production sounds very dark while t he lyrics cover suffering themes.
In my opinion The Sun And The Mirror are a very great sounding mixture of dark orchestral, doom metal, drone, folk, minimalistic noise and psychedelic and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this duo.
In conclusion I feel this is a very great sounding split and i would recommend it to all fans of experimental, drone, noise and doom metal. 8 out of 10.
