Clean playing and melodic vocals start off the album and after a few seconds the music gets heavier while the solos and leads also use a great amount of melody bring in post metal touches and they also mix the atmospheric and heavy parts together and black metal screams can also be heard in the music at times.
A great portion of the tracks are very long and epic in length along with all of the musical instruments having a very powerful sound to them and the music also gets very progressive at times and when the music speeds up a decent amount of blast beats can be heard and there is also a brief use of jazz elements.
Some songs bring in a small amount of whispers and some tracks also bring in a small amount of acoustic guitars while the faster riffs also use a decent amount of tremolo picking and as the album progresses synths can be heard in certain sections of the recording and the whole album is also full of a great amount of diversity while there is also a brief use of spoken word parts and stringed instruments are used on the last track.
Unalei plays a musical style that is mostly rooted in post metal while also getting very progressive and experimental at times as well as bringing in a touch of black and doom metal, the production sounds very professional while the lyrics are written in Italian and cover anger, depression, sadness, grief, anxiety, apathy and chastity themes.
In my opinion Unalei are a very great sounding decadent post metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Aporia" "Salve Regina" and "Sei Sveglia". 8 out of 10.
