Do are a band from Finland that has been featured before in this zine and plays a mixture of stoner, sludge and doom metal and this is a review of their self released 2016 album "Tuho" which will be released in April.
Night sounds start off the album before going into a heavier musical direction and all of the musical instruments have a very powerful sound to them and also mix in the heaviness of sludge and doom metal and after awhile growling and screaming vocals make their presence known on the recording.
When solos and leads are added into the music they bring in a very distorted yet retro style of stoner rock and some of the tracks are very long and epic in length and some of the riffs also bring in a decent amount of melody and when melodic singing is utilized it gives the music a 70's doom metal feeling and as the album progresses clean playing can be heard in certain sections of the recording and all of the songs stick either to a slow or mid paced musical direction while also speeding up briefly on a track and bringing in a small amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. while another song brings acoustic guitars onto the recording.
Do creates another recording that takes the heaviest styles of stoner, sludge and doom metal and mixes them together to create a very heavy sounding album, the production sounds very professional for being a self released recording while the lyrics are written in a mixture of Finnish and English and cover dark themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Do and if you are a fan of stoner, sludge and doom metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Everblast II (The Aftermath)" and "Forsaken be thy Name". 8 out of 10.
