The Black Moriah/Casket Prospects Promo/2012 EP Review


  The  Black  Moriah  are  a  band  from  Texas  that  plays  a  mixture  of  black  and  thrash  metal  and  this  is  a  review  of  their  self  released  2012  ep  "Casket  Prospects  Promo".

  Drums range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  drumming  with  some  blast  beats  being  thrown  into  the  music  at  times,  while  the  bass  playing  has  a  very  strong  and  powerful  tone  with  heavy  riffing  that  dominates  throughout  the  recording.

  Rhythm  guitars  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  riffs  that  combine  thrash  and  black  metal  together  with  some  dark  sounding  melodies  that  bring  a  doom  and  death  metal  feeling  to the  music,  while the  lead  guitars  are  very  old  school  sounding  black/thrash  metal  guitar  solos  and  leads,  as  for the  acoustic  guitars  when  they  are  utilized  they  use  finger  picking  to  enhance  the  darkness  that  is  coming  out  of  the  music.

  Vocals  are  mostly  high pitched  black/thrash  metal  screams  with  some  deep  growls  being  utilized  at  times  as  well  as  a  brief  use  of  clean  singing,  while the  lyrics  cover  dark  and  occult themes,  as  for  the  production  it  has  a  very  dark,  heavy,  raw  and  primitive  sound  while  you  can  still  hear  all  of  the  musical  instruments  that  are  present  on  this  recording.

  In  my  opinion The  Black  Moriah  are  a  very  great  sounding  hybrid  of  black  and  thrash  metal  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of t his  musical  genre,  you  should  check  out  this  band.  RECOMMENDED  TRACK  "Chained  And  Confined".  RECOMMENDED.
