Purgist - Bleak Prospects
Review by Sabine
The album Bleak Prospects by Purgist is a haunting masterpiece that showcases the band's unique blend of doom metal and experimental soundscapes. From the opening track "Desolate" to the closing number "Sorrowful Departure," the album takes the listener on a journey through a bleak and desolate landscape.
The album is characterized by its heavy, crushing riffs, pounding drums, and guttural vocals. However, what sets Purgist apart from other doom metal bands is their use of atmospheric soundscapes and eerie electronic elements that add an extra layer of depth to their music.
The standout tracks on the album include "Eternal Void" with its slow, brooding build-up and "The Silent Watcher" which features a haunting piano melody that gives way to crushing guitars and pounding drums.
