Stromptha are a solo project from Greenland that plays an atmospheric mixture of black and doom metal and this is a review of his 2020 album "Endura Pleniluniis" which was released as a joint effort between Satanath and Pest Records.
Clean playing starts off the album while the synths also gives the music more of an atmospheric feeling. All of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them along with some clear vocals also being added into certain sections of the recording and the guitar solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style.
Black metal screams are also mixed in with the heavier parts of the music while all of the tracks are also very long and epic in length. Elements of doom metal can also be heard in the slower sections of the songs along with some of the riffing also adding in melodies and tremolo picking.
When the music speeds up a decent amount of blast beats can also be heard along with clean playing also making a return on some of the later tracks as well as the songs also adding in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics are written in the songwriters native tongue and covers dark themes.
In my opinion Strompptha are a very great sounding atmospheric mixture of black and doom metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this solo project. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "De Sang Et De Brouillard" and "Quand Le Cornu Moissonera". 8 out of 10.
