V:28 – “Soulsavior”
I read the word “industrial” applied to this band and was expecting industrial. Do you know what this is? It’s mid-tempo melodic black-ish metal with slower, moody moments, as well as a few twists.
I would not have been able to tell that it’s a drum machine. It doesn’t sound plastic. V28’s music has dark, eerie moments, and spoken samples here and there. The vocals are largely black metal, with some death metal growling, as well as bits of nonscreamed vocals. The guitar often has an oldschool, cold and melodic black-ish riffing/noodling, combined with dark, downtuned work of amorphous black/death, with catchy moments. The term post-black metal or avantgarde are often used with bands like this. Whenever people are talking about such bands, the music tends to be dance/techno/trip hop or just plain weirdo non-metal stuff. There’s not a lot that sounds industrial or techno here. It sounds a lot like mid-paced black-influenced metal.
