Menin are a band from Portland, Oregon that plays a psychedelic mixture of stoner and doom metal and this is a review of their 2017 ep "Lord Of Pain" which will be released in September by Doom Stew Records.
Heavy doom metal riffs and drum beats start off the ep along with some aggressive vocals that add in a touch of sludge as well as some growls while the music also incorporates a great amount of stoner rock elements along with the riffs also bringing in a decent amount of melody.
When guitar solos and leads a re utilized they remain very true to a stoner rock style while aggressive screams are also used at times along with a brief use of clean singing and all of the musical instruments have a very powerful sound to them and psychedelic elements are also used at times as well as most of the tracks being very long and epic in length, clean playing is also used briefly and all of the songs stick to a very slow musical direction and the last track is an instrumental.
Menin plays a musical style that takes psychedelic, stoner rock, doom an sludge metal and mixes them together to create a sound of their own, the production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover science fiction themes.
In my opinion Menin are a very great sounding psychedelic mixture of stoner, doom and sludge metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Logrus". 8 out of 10.
