Song Review | "Veil of Silence" - Valefor
Long Island, New York trio Valefor released their debut album "Persevere" in July. The track, "Veil of Silence" starts with fuzz-driven guitar tones, thumping bass lines, building drums, and ringing guitar dissonance that builds excitement as the song introduces itself. Abruptly the song launches into held-out sludgy guitar chords and melodic singing before transitioning to brutally heavy growls and chugging. Valefor shows a wide array of influences in a short amount of time, mixing an experimental sound with the sounds of sludge, doom, and death metal.
Clocking in at just under 4 minutes, "Veil of Silence" takes listeners on a powerful journey that blends sludge metal's grooviness with the crushing heaviness of extreme metal genres. The contrast between singing and screaming vocals keeps the song varied and interesting while instrumentals utilize a variety of techniques like sliding, bending, and screeching, to create memorable sounds. Fans of experimental metal and extreme metal genres are certain to enjoy Valefor's fresh music style that lands somewhere between the two.
