Lord Orots - Conquering The Infinite Void (Onism Produc�ons) Review by Steve Thomas-Green Ok, there’s not a lot of foreplay to this review… because the album is ruined by horrible �nny produc�on. So no big build up, just to disappoint you at the end… But apart from that, I really like this album… so let’s go back to the start. Lord Orots are from the Basque Country and musically, it’s Dragon Synth meets atmospheric Black Metal. So kind of like a plinky plonky version of Summoning… if you get my dri�. And I have to say, were it not for the produc�on, which has the treble set at 11 and the bass at zero, I’d be raving about this. (Although the sound is decent on the last track, The Lord Rises From His Throne). Sound issues aside, it’s pre�y easy on the ear. Loads of very melodic, sweeping music (guitars and piano) and sporadic Black Metal vocals and it dri�s off in a wonderfully dreamy direc�on. And as far as the music goes, there are no complaints to be made at all. I could be in the minority here and there could be loads of hooded figures, running around the woods of the world, playing this and worshipping Satan likes it’s the greatest thing since church burning was re-introduced into Norway in the 1990s…. But the rest of us, who’ve invested in decent speakers and like a bit of oomph behind their music, will be shaking their heads in disappointment. www.facebook.com/lordorots h�ps://onism.produc�ons
