A very medieval sound along with some bagpipes start off the album along with some drum beats and they also mix in with the heavier sections of the songs while the riffs also bring in a great amount of melody and after awhile symphonic elements are added onto the recording and the vocals are done in a clean singing fashion.
A lot of the slow riffs bring in elements of doom metal and the music also mixes in a great amount of folk instruments while most 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 death metal growls are also used briefly and as the album progresses choir's are added on the recording and acoustic guitars can also be heard at times and they also bring in a brief instrumental and all of the songs stick to a very slow musical direction and spoken word parts are added onto the closing track.
Apocalypse Orchestra plays a musical style that takes medieval folk music and mixes it with doom metal to create a sound of their own, the production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Medieval, Anti War and Science themes.
In my opinion Apocalypse Orchestra are a very great sounding mixture of medieval folk music and doom metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Pyre" "Theatre Of War" and "Here Be Monsters". 8 out of 10.
