Necro Deathmort - Overland (Profound Lore) 2017

6

For almost ten years, Necro Deathmort have been building a strong career as ambitious composers of experimental, often bizarre electronic-based music. Overland continues this trend, but offers mixed results. The best moments are certainly amazing: “Poliz” is an awe-inspiring, synth-driven cinematic piece; it is followed by “Cath Hedral”, a strange and mysterious jazz-influenced tune which sounds like something straight out of the dark, surrealistic Twin Peaks universe. The rest of the album, however, never really recaptures the magic of the first two songs. It’s not a bad record by any means, but it never reaches its full potential. In the end, we are left with a highly visual collection of seven songs which don’t always have the emotional impact we were looking for.
