Our Take

OVEROTH's latest offering, "The Forgotten Tome," is a dark and brooding exploration of the depths of blackened death metal. This Belfast-based band takes listeners on a journey through hauntingly atmospheric soundscapes and punishingly heavy riffs.

From the opening track "Sigil of the Empty Throne," it's clear that OVEROTH is not here to play nice. The ferocious vocals of Andy Ennis lead the charge, while the intricate guitar work of Daniel Graham and Andrew Pennington creates a wall of sound that is both relentless and captivating.

"The Forgotten Tome" is a concept album, telling the tale of a fallen king's quest for redemption through dark magic and ancient rituals. While the storyline may seem cliché, the band's execution is anything but. Each track is a masterclass in technical proficiency and unbridled aggression.

Standout tracks include the epic "Vessel of the Years," with its thunderous drums and haunting melodies, and the blistering "Throne of Ivy and Thorns," which showcases the band's ability to seamlessly blend melody and brutality.

Overall, "The Forgotten Tome" is a triumph for OVEROTH, showcasing their evolution as a band and cementing their status as one of the UK's premier metal acts. So grab your leather jacket, crank up the volume, and prepare to be blown away by this dark and twisted masterpiece.
