Nonsun/Good Old Evil/2012 EP Review


    Nonsun  are  a  band  from  Ukraine  that  plays  a  mixture  of  sludge,  doom,  drone,  post  metal  and  noise  and  this  is  a  review  of  their  self  released  2012  ep  "Good  Old  Evil".

  Drums  range  from  slow  to  mid  paced  drumming  with  no fast  playing  or  blast  beats  being  present  on  this  recording,  while  the  sound  effects  bring  avant  garde  and  harsh  noise  elements  to  the  music, as  for  the  bass  playing  it  has  a  very  strong  and  powerful  sound  with  heavy  riffing  that  dominates  throughout  the  recording.

  Rhythm  guitars  range  from  slow  to  mid  paced  riffs  that  combine  doom,  sludge,  post  metal  and  drone  together  to create  a  sound  of  their  own  with  a  good  amount  of  heavy  distortion  being  thrown  into  the  music,  while  the  lead  guitars  are  very  psychedelic  sounding  guitar  solos  and  leads.

  Vocals  are  all  deep  sludge/doom  metal  growls,  while  the  lyrics  cover  dark  themes,  as  for  the  production  it  has  a  very  strong,  powerful,  heavy  and  dark  sound  where  you  can  hear  all  of  the  musical  instruments  that  are  present  on  this  recording  with  the  songs  being  long  and  epic  in  length.

  In  my  opinion  Nonsun  are  a  very  great  sounding  heavy  hybrid  of  sludge,  doom,  drone,  post  metal  and  noise  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  this  musical  genre,  you  should  check  out  this b and.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "Jesus  Age"  and  "Forgotten  Is  What  Never  Was".  RECOMMENDED  BUY.
