Clean playing starts off the ep before going into a heavier direction while all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them. Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams along with the faster sections of the songs also adding in a lot of brutal sounding blast beats.
Throughout the ep you can also hear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while the mid tempo sections also add in elements of crust punk and hardcore. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic post metal style, melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing along with some death metal growls also being utilized at times and one song also adds in a brief use of synth.
Cruel Division plays a musical style that takes, black, death, post metal, crust punk and hardcore and mixes them together to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover everyday life, existentialism, loss of reality and cosmic horror themes.
In my opinion Cruel Division are a very great sounding mixture of black, death, post metal, crust punk and hardcore and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Carcosa" and "Amniotic Misery". 8 out of 10.
