Soulburn – Quantifying Cosmic Doom CD
The album blends crushing death metal riffs with bleak doom tempos and piercing black metal aggression. Introduces a more cinematic, expansive, and cosmic atmosphere compared to their previous raw, old-school Swedish death metal style. Frontman Twan van Geel steps away from standard extreme growls, introducing dramatic clean vocals and spoken-word passages, reminiscent of bands like Primordial. Heavy, plodding doom riffs are layered with eerie, psychedelic melodies and tremolo-picked black metal sections.
The tracks alternate between fast, aggressive black/death blasts and slow, suffocating doom-laden segments. 11 tracks stretching over an hour, the songs feel like epic journeys with shifting tempos and progressive structures.
