Obsoletion are a band from Brazil that plays a mixture of black, death, thrash metal and hardcore punk and this is a review of their self titled 2024 album which will be released in october by Sentient Ruin Laboratories.
Apocalyptic soundscapes and spoken word samples start off the album before going into more of a heavier and melodic direction. All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them while the solos and leads also utilize a great amount of melody and the vocals also add in a lot of black metal screams.
Death metal growls are also utilized at times while the riffing also shows a good amount of thrash metal elements. Elements of hardcore are also added into the mid tempo sections of the songs along with all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them and at times the music also captures the raw energy of punk rock., when the music finally speeds up a small amount of blast beats can also be heard and one song is an instrumental which also adds in a brief use of clean playing.
Obsoletion plays a musical style that takes black, death, thrash metal and hardcore punk and mixes them together to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover magick, occultism, anti capitalism and dystopian themes.
In my opinion Obsoletion are a very great sounding mixture of black, death, thrash metal and hardcore punk and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "SSA" "Abominable New World" "Ruin's Lament" and "Inorganic Eregore". 8 out of 10.
