Review | |||||||
Zohamah (Hebrew for Filth) is an Israeli one-man Black/Doom act, which is pretty uncommon for the region even by Black/Doom standards. This is pretty standard for the style, with slow, atonal Doom riffs with Black Metal vocals and tremolo strumming wrapped up in a big, booming production, though they do speed up at times for some Death Metal blast beats to stand out a bit, and it actually complements the bleak, hateful mood the album is going for pretty well. The songs are all well played, but they're a bit hard to distinguish from one another, so the album kind of goes by in a wave of dragging misanthropy overall. Of course, that's the point of this kind of approach, and at only about 30 minutes I'd say it's the perfect length to do it without dragging things out too long along with being a quality release while doing it, and in a pond as small as Black/Doom, that means a lot. Solid. |
