Dimlight are a band from Greece that has had an album reviewed before in this zine and plays a very dark and symphonic mixture of doom, death and goth metal and this is a review of their self released 2018 album "Kingdom Of Horrors".
Dark soundscapes start off the album along with some cinematic and symphonic elements a few seconds later which also mixes in with the heavier sections of the music along with the vocals being death metal growls while the faster sections of the songs also bring in a great amount of blast beats.
Melodies are also added into a lot of the guitar riffing while all of the musical instruments have a very powerful sound to them along with some operatic female vocals also being utilized quite a bit throughout the recording which also bring in elements of goth metal as well as the songs also adding in a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts, one track also adds in a brief use of Gregorian chants and elements of doom metal can also be heard in the slower sections of the songs, as the album progresses a brief use of spoken word parts can also be heard.
On this recording Dimlight remains true to their dark and symphonic mixture of doom, death and goth metal, the production sounds very professional for being a s elf released recording while the lyrics are a concept album based upon their own dark fantasy story that revolves around the world of Nemorensia.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Dimlight and if you are a fan of dark and symphonic doom, death and goth metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Red King" "Into The Thrice Unknown Darkness" "Serpents Pact" and "Bleeding Sunrise". 8 out of 10.
