This is a review of a split album between Australia's Whitehorse and Uboa called "The Dissolution Of Eternity" which will be released in August as a joint effort between Tartarus Records and Sweatlung and we will start off the review with Whitehorse a band that h as had music reviewed before in this zine and on this recording goes for a mixture of noise, drone, sludge and doom metal with a touch of black emtal.
Their side of the split starts out with a very slow and heavy doom metal sound which also mixes in the heaviness of sludge metal. Both of their tracks are also very long and epic in length while the vocals are very harsh sounding screams. When guitar leads are utilized they are also done in a very dark style.
Distorted sounds can also be heard at times which also adds in elements of noise along with some drones also being utilized at times. Death metal growls are also added into certain sections of the recording as well as some of the riffing also adding in melody, harsh power electronics are also added into certain sections of the songs. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover dark themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Whitehorse and if you are a fan of noise, drone, sludge and doom metal, you should check out their side of the split. RECOMMENDED TRACK "The Wait".
Next up is Uboa a solo artist that plays a mixture of death industrial, harsh noise and drone.
Her side of the split starts out with some harsh noises and power electronics while the vocals are mostly high pitched screams. Industrial style beats are also utilized quite a bit throughout her side of the recording along with some distorted drones also being added into certain sections of the tracks, a lot of the music also sounds very improvised and synths and clear singing are also used briefly. The production sounds very dark and the lyrics cover apocalyptic themes.
In my opinion Uboa is a very great sounding mixture of death industrial, harsh noise and drone and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out her side of the split. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Wasted Potential" and "The Apocalypse of True Love".
In conclusion I feel this is a very great sounding split and I would recommend it to all fans of death industrial, harsh noise, drone, sludge and doom metal 8 out of 10.
