Damned To Downfall are a duo from Sweden that has had music reviewed before this zine and plays an industrial form of blackened death metal and this is a review of their self released 2023 ep "Slavery For You".
EBM sounds start off the ep before going into a very fast and brutal direction which also utilizes a great amount of tremolo picking and blast b eats. Black metal screams are also a very huge part of the recording while the songs also mix in elements of industrial and melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing.
The songs also capture the heaviness of death metal while keyboards are also added into certain sections of the recording. The tracks also add in both real and programmed drum beats along with the solos and leads bringing in more of a modern extreme metal style and the ep also adds in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts, clean playing can also be heard briefly.
On this recording Damned To Downfall remain true to the mixture of industrial and blackened death metal that they have established on previous releases. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover post apocalyptic themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Damned To Downfall and if you are a fan of industrial and blackened death metal, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Enslaved By Faith" and "Need me". 8 out of 10.
