00y 18/Stahlstadt/2013 EP Review


  00y 18  are  a  band  from  Austria  that  plays  an  instrumental  form  of  music  which  combines  sludge,  doom  metal  and  post  rock  together  and  this  is  a  review  of t heir  self  released  2013  ep  "Stahlstadt".

  Drum  programming  ranges  from  slow  to  mid  paced  beats  which  never  get  fast,  while  the  bass  playing  has  a  very  strong  and  powerful  sound  with  heavy  riffing  that  dominates  throughout  the  recording.

  Rhythm  guitars  range  from  slow  to  mid  paced  riffs  that  combine  doom  metal,  sludge,  drone  and  post  rock  together  to  create  a  sound  of  their  own  and  there  are  no  guitar  solos  or  leads  present  on  this  recording.

  Vocals  are  all  absent  from t his  recording  with  the  music  being  all  instrumental,  while  the  song  themes  revolve  around  dark  concepts,  as  for  the  production  it  has  a  very  strong,  powerful,  heavy  and  dark  sound  for  being  a  self  released  recording  where  you  can  hear  all  of  the  musical  instruments  that  are  presented  on t his  ep.

  In  my  opinion  00y  18  are  a  very  great  sounding  hybrid  of  drone,  doom,  sludge  and  post  rock  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  this  musical  genre,  you  should  check  out  this  band.  RECOMMENDED  TRACK  "Linz".  RECOMMENDED  BUY.
