Majestic Downfall are a 1 man band from Mexico that plays a very melodic form of doom/death metal with a blackened edge and this is a review of their 2012 album "The Blood Dance" which was released by Chaos Records.
Drums range from slow to mid paced drumming with not much in the way of fast playing or blast beats, while the keyboards when they are utilized bring a very dark and atmospheric sound to the music, as for the bass playing it has a very dark tone with riffs that follow the riffing that is coming out of the guitars and at times they have a very powerful sound to them.
Rhythm guitars range from slow to mid paced doom/death metal riffs that are very dark and melodic sounding, while the lead guitars are very melodic sounding guitar solos and leads, as for the classical guitars when they are utilized they use finger picking to enhance the darkness of the music.
Vocals range from deep death metal growls, high pitched screams that have a black metal feeling to them and clean singing vocals, while the lyrics cover dark and depressive themes, as for the production it has a very strong and powerful sound to it.
In my opinion Majestic Downfall are a very great sounding melodic doom/death metal band with a blackened edge and if you are a fan of this style, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Blood Dance" "Majestic Embrace" and "Cronos". RECOMMENDED BUY.
