Ferum are a band from Italy that plays a mixture of doom and death metal and this is a review of their 2018 ep "Vergence" which was released by Everlasting Spew Records.
A very dark and heavy sound starts off the ep while all of the musical instruments have a very powerful sound to them along with some blast beats also being added into the faster sections of the music as well as the vocals being a mixture of death metal growls and screams and the music is very heavily rooted in the 90's.
Morbid sounding melodies can also be heard in some of the guitar riffing while tremolo picking can also be heard in some of the fast riffs along with all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them and they also bring in a cover of Cianide's "Funeral' before closing the ep with an outro.
Ferum plays a style of doom/death metal that is very heavily rooted in the 90's tradition, the production sounds very old school while the lyrics cover mental and physical states of asphyxiating discomfort and desolation taken from everyday experience.
In my opinion Ferum are a very great sounding doom/death metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Siege Of Carnality" and "Funeral". 8 out of 10.
