COLDEST DOMAIN packed with atmospheric, cold vibes. It mixes soft, ambient-style keyboards with harsh, tremolo-picked guitar riffs, and it works better than one would expect. This certainly isn't something many would call trve BM but rather a quite unique style. The keyboards are quite dominant throughout the materialized, but keep fundamental to the sound is going for and thus never feel out of place or intrusive. They're the #1 reason why the materialize has such a cold and unique sound. The guitars often take a backseat to the synth melodies. it doesn't belong to the music, it's just lo-fi and has about as much of a dreadful atmosphere as a unboring conference call. The whole damn thing sounds like a conference call, compounded by being on hold for a few minutes while widdly music box tones ping the worst "on-hold" music have ever heard. These elements are employed in the pursuit of a sorrowful, reflective atmosphere. However, nice execution means that the affect is only achieved at the surface level. While the musicianship is technically sound, it is too austere. The cleanliness of the performance stands in stark contrast to the deep emotions COLDEST DOMAIN is trying to draw out. The performance has no soul. No energy bursts forth from the guitar, the drums are flat and the synths are especially inundating.
It's no secret that COLDEST DOMAIN are considered to be one of the, if not the very best the sub-genre has to offer, mixing black metal traditions with ambiance. Considering the majority of music within this area of metal has some degree of ambiance to it, one would imagine that bands who specialise in the sound would be able to fulfill our every need and want but that isn’t the case most of the time. In actual fact, most bands struggle to get the balance between ambiance and black metal right.
Cold Regards
