OBSCURA INSANIA – Sodoma
Sepulchral
Silence
OBSCURA
INSANIA is a new band in the metal world and especially in the studio releases,
since “Sodoma” is their debut album. The band was formed in Venezuela and the
musicians who participate here wanted to create a doom/stoner metal sound with
lyrics written in the Spanish language.
Their
debut album which was released in 2016 has the title “Sodoma” and of course it
is the name of the city that the biblical god destroyed due to the sins of its
residents. The title as the band says is a metaphor for the modern cities
around the world and the life that people live. It is a way of life that brings
destruction both to humans and nature. So, in a way we can say that the first
studio album of OBSCURA INSANIA is a concept album based on a specific topic
that has so many aspects.
The
sound of the band as I mentioned above moves on the fields of doom metal and
there are some modern down-tuned grooves that someone can claim to be closer in
the modern stoner rock sound. No matter how someone describes it, the fact is
that the sound of OBSCURA INSANIA is dark and fits perfectly to the concept of
the album. I can’t also ignore how well bonded the band is and how experienced
they sound, especially if you consider that this is their debut album.
I
think that doom metal must sound dark and imposing and I think that OBSCURA
INSANIA manage to do that very well.
