This is a review of another recording from Emperor Of Myself which continues their gothic approach to blackened death/doom metal with the album being self released in 2013 and called "Question Your Existence".
The album starts out with dark sounding guitar riffs and blackened death metal growls as well as some drums and the music starts utilizing some melodic guitar leads after awhile along with some gothic metal influences
As time goes on by the music starts getting more dark, melodic and depressive sounding as well as mixing melodic vocals into certain parts of the recording and the vocals also start incorporating more black metal influences and by the third song clean guitars start mixing in with the more heavier parts of the recording and on the forth song keyboards are brought into the music and they enhance the darkness this music possesses as well as bring in some symphonic elements.
This album shows a lot of progression from t he last one and the gothic and black metal influences are even stronger on this record then they where on the previous one and this recording even has a more melancholic edge and more acoustic guitars than the previous recording.
Song lyrics cover dark and depressive themes, while the production has a very strong, powerful, heavy and professional sound for being a self released recording with the bass guitars this time around being mixed down low in the mix.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Emperor of Myself and if you are a fan of gothic blackened doom/death metal, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Curse of Emptiness" "No One Will Remember" and "Revenge is Justice". RECOMMENDED BUY.
