Keyboards start off the album which also add in touches of classical music before adding in some clean playing which also takes the music into a heavier direction. Blast beats are added into the faster sections of the songs while the vocals are mostly grim sounding black metal screams and the riffs also add in elements of thrash and traditional metal.
Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while the album also adds in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style along with all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them and the music also adds in a lot of old school touches, the closing track is also a Robert Schumann cover.
Deathroll plays a musical style that takes black, thrash and heavy metal and mixes them together to create a sound of his own. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover emptiness, grief and psychological collapse.
In my opinion Deathroll are a very great sounding blackened heavy metal solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Blizzard Of Despair" and "A Distrssing Sunset". 8 out of 10.
