REVIEW: INNER MISSING - The Age of Silence

 


INNER MISSING - The Age of Silence


Darknagar Records


INNER MISSING, a Russian five-piece, emerged in 2008 as the studio project ODIUM. Following a positively received demo, the project evolved into a full band, changing their name to INNER MISSING to mark this development. Their debut full-length album, “The Age of Silence”, was released in 2010. The band has since released a sophomore album, “Escapism”.


Musically, INNER MISSING operates within the doom/death metal genre, often incorporating elements that approach funeral doom. The album predominantly features slow to mid-paced tempos, characteristic of doom metal. However, the rhythm section occasionally introduces faster drumming, contrasting with the more deliberate pace of the guitars.



Vocal delivery on “The Age of Silence” primarily consists of deep death metal growls. These are periodically complemented by recitations, which contribute to the album's somber atmosphere. The guitar work is characterized by heavy, downtuned tones. Despite the overall heaviness, the album also incorporates dark melodies, solos, and notable riffs.


“The Age of Silence” showcases a band with varied musical approaches, offering a notable entry for listeners interested in the heavier spectrum of doom/death metal.
