Our Take
Our Take
NIGHON, the Finnish symphonic death metal outfit, are back with their latest album, The Somme. And let me tell you, this album is an absolute rollercoaster of a listen. From the moment you hit play, you are thrown into a whirlwind of heavy riffs, intricate melodies, and epic orchestration.
The opening track, "Into the Abyss," sets the tone perfectly with its thunderous drumming and relentless guitar work. It's a powerhouse of a song that grabs you by the collar and doesn't let go. And that's just the beginning.
As you make your way through the album, you'll find yourself caught up in a sonic maelstrom of epic proportions. Tracks like "Sacrifice" and "The Merciless Tide" showcase the band's technical prowess and knack for crafting truly epic compositions.
But it's not all heavy guitars and pounding drums. NIGHON aren't afraid to experiment with different sounds and textures, adding layers of depth to their music. The haunting vocals on "A Whisper from the Grave" are a perfect example of this, adding an eerie, atmospheric quality to the track.
Overall, The Somme is a thrilling and captivating listen from start to finish. NIGHON have once again proven themselves to be a force to be reckoned with in the world of symphonic death metal. So grab your headphones, crank up the volume, and immerse yourself in the epic soundscape that is The Somme. You won't be disappointed.
