EP Review: Orbyssmal "Impostomb" (Independent) by Sarah McKellar

Project: Orbyssmal

Location: Brisbane

Country: Australia

Genre: Experimental black/death metal

EP: Impostomb

Label: Independent

Format: Digital

Release date: April 15, 2020

Orbyssmal is a raw and experimental blackened death solo project from Brisbane, Australia. “Impostomb” is their 2019 EP release. An unrelenting, brutal, blackened death approach is consistent throughout “Impostomb” and is to be expected of Orbyssmal. Brutal vocals add an extra chaotic element to a blackened death feel which instantly grabs your attention and leaves you waiting in anticipation for the next track. The raw and aggressive approach continues constantly throughout “Impostomb” with a constantly unrelenting and tight sound. A mournful and raw approach displays another musical aspect of Orbyssmal to be appreciated. Discordant and chaotic- “Impostomb” has a hard and fast approach and is a constant exercise in how much brutality one band can pack into one release. –Sarah McKellar
