Monolithe - Epsilon Aurigae Zeta Reticuli
Review by Ebenlo Painterofsong
The album Epsilon Aurigae Zeta Reticuli by Monolithe is a beautifully crafted masterpiece of atmospheric doom metal. The band has created a sonic landscape that is both haunting and mesmerizing, drawing the listener in with its powerful and evocative soundscapes.
The album consists of two epic tracks, each clocking in at over 20 minutes. The first track, "Epsilon Aurigae", is a haunting and atmospheric journey through the cosmos, with layers of guitars, synths, and drums building to a crescendo of powerful riffs and crushing rhythms.
The second track, "Zeta Reticuli", is a more introspective and melancholic piece, with haunting melodies and soaring vocals that evoke a sense of cosmic longing and introspection. The band's use of dynamics and textures is particularly impressive on this track, with moments of quiet introspection giving way to thunderous riffs and pounding rhythms.
