Taphephobia/Corph'Antae Tryr/Counting The Days/Kalpamantra/2011 Split Album Review


  This  is  a  review  of  a  split  album  between  Norway's  Taphephobia  and  Corph,  Antae  Tryr  called  "Counting  The  Days"  which  was  released  by  Kalpamantra  in  2011  and  we  will  start  of  the  review  with  Taphephobia  which  plays  an  atmospheric  form  of  dark  ambinet/drone.

  Synths  bring  a  very  atmospheric  dark  ambient/drone  sound  to  the  music,  while  the  sound  effects  bring  a  very  dark  avant  garde  experimental  soundscape  sound  to  the  music.

  Vocals  and  songwriting  are  all  absent  from  their  side  of  the  recording  with  the  music  being  all  instrumental,  while  the  song  themes  cover  darkness  and  nature,  as  for  the  production  it  has  a  very dark,  raw  and  primitive  sound  to  it.

  In  my  opinion  Taphephobia  are  a  very  great  sounding  dark  ambient/drone  band  and  if  you  are  a fan  of  this  style  of  music,  you  should  check  them  out.  RECOMMENDED  TRACK  "The  Sky  Is  Turning  Grey".  RECOMMENDED.

  Next  up  is  Corph'Antae  Tryr  another  band  that plays  a  very  atmospheric  form  of  dark  ambient/drone.

  Synths  bring  a  very  dark  ambient/drone  sound  with  somewhat  of  an  epic  feeling  to  them,  while  the  sound  effects  bring  in  experimental  music  sounding  soundscapes  to  the  music.

  Vocals  and  songwriting  are  all  absent  from  their  side  of  the  recording  with  the  music  being  all  instrumental,  while  the  song  themes  cover  dark  subjects,  as  for  the  production  it  has  a  very  dark,  raw  and  primitive  sound  to  it.

  In  my opinion  Corph'Antae  Tryr  are  a  very  great  sounding  dark  ambient/drone  band  with  the  best  music  on  this  split  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of this  musical  style,  you  should  check  them  out.  RECOMMENDED  TRACK  "Matea".  RECOMMENDED.

  In  conclusion  I  feel  this  is  a  very  great  sounding  split  and  I  would  recommend  this  to  all  fans  of  atmospheric  dark  ambient/drone.  RECOMMENDED.
