Illimitable Dolor are a band from Australia that has had music reviewed before in this zine and plays a very atmospheric form of funeral doom/death metal and this is a review of their 2019 album "Leaden Light" which was released by Transcending Obscurity Records.
Rain and thunder sounds start off the album before going into more of a heavier and melodic funeral doom metal direction. Most of the tracks are very long and epic in length along with the vocals being mostly death metal growls and when screams are utilized they add in a touch of black metal.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are done in a very melodic style while the synths gives the songs more of an atmospheric feeling. Clear vocals can also be heard in some parts of the music as well as some clean guitars also being utilized briefly and all of the music sticks to a slower direction, spoken word parts can also be heard briefly on the closing track.
In this recording Illimitable Donor remains true to the atmospheric style of funeral doom/death metal from their previous release. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover destruction, beauty and nature themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from Illimitable Dolor and if you are a fan of atmospheric funeral doom/death metal, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Armed He Brings The Dawn" and "Leaden Light Her Coils". 8 out of 10.
