Doomed are a band from Germany that plays an atmospheric form of funeral doom/death metal and this is a review of their 2015 album "Wrath Monolith" which was released by Solitude Productions.
A very dark and tragic sounding keyboard giving the music an avant garde classical feeling and after a minute the music starts to get heavier and brings in a doom metal sound along with some death metal growls and a small amount of black metal screams and the music also brings in a great amount of melodic guitar leads.
A great portion of the tracks are very long and epic in length and spoken word parts can also be heard in certain sections of the recording and they also mix the heavy and keyboard parts together to give the songs more of an atmospheric feeling and some songs also bring in a small amount of acoustic guitars.
One of the tracks also brings in electronic music elements and female opera vocals while the main focus remains on a slow and heavy doom/death style while the music does speed up for a few seconds and also brings in a brief use of blast beats and almost towards the end on of the songs also brings in clean singing male vocals and all of the musicla instruments have a very powerful sound to them.
Doomed plays a style of funeral doom metal that is very atmospheric and also mixes it in with the 90's doom/death metal style to create their own sound, the production sounds very professional while the lyrics are a concept album based on the crisis of the modern world.
In my opinion Doomed are a very great sounding atmospheric funeral doom/death metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Paradoxon" and "Looking Back". 8 out of 10.
