This is a recent 7” by the doom metal/heavy metal band Noctum. I heard their first album before their second album dropped in October 2013. I personally think both albums are chock full of great songwriting. So when I heard that they were releasing a 7” I was very excited. Luckily the band gave me a tip of who to contact so I could get review these two songs.
The first song Until Then…Until the End just starts off with a riff that already gets your head moving. But it also a bit haunting and when the vocal kicks in it really just has this dark feeling to it. I like how the vocals just really add to the mood of the song. Then midway into the song you get more into something that you might have heard from their first album. But really this is still progressing from their album Final Sacrifice. Which I thought was a great album. The solo in this song rules as well!
In Precious Time that opening riff is just freaking awesome. This song picks up the pace a bit but it’s just as good as the song before it. The song melodies in these song are just haunting. That’s something Noctum really nails on this 7”. I personally can’t wait until their next full length but for the moment we’ll have to keep spinning this 7”. If Noctum keeps on this course of what they have been doing. That is writing great and memorable songs, I can’t see why people wouldn’t like it. So I would suggest buying this 7” you will not regret it. NIGHT WILL FALL!
10/10
