Deeper Graves is a solo project of Jeff Wilson best known for his work in Abigail Williams, Nachtmystium, Wolvhammer, Chrome Waves and Contrition and on this recording goes for more of a mixture of post punk, shoegaze and alternative and this is a review of his album "The Colossal Sleep " which will be released in 2022 by Disorder Recordings.
Atmospheric sounding synths start off the album along with some post rock style clean playing a few seconds later. All of the drum beats are programmed while the bass guitars are also utilized as a lead instrument at times along with the guitar solos and leads being done in a very melodic shoegaze style.
Vocals are done in mostly a clean style as well as showing an influence of goth rock at times while the songs also mix in a great amount of post punk elements. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing along with some of the tracks also being very long and epic in length and all of the music sticks to either a slow or mid paced direction and touches of alternative rock can also be heard at times.
Deeper Graves plays a musical style that take s post punk, shoegaze and alternative and mixes them together to create a sound of his own. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover dark and melancholic themes.
In my opinion Deeper Graves is a very great sounding mixture of post punk, shoegaze and alternative and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this solo project. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Feverish Dreams" and "Distant Fires". 8 out of 10.
