Drohm is the brainchild of New Hampshire based musician
Travis Lorden and it was given birth to in 1994. Over the years the band has
undergone a couple of lineup changes and has also been put on ice for a while.
Now this three-piece has set out to try to get a record deal. This new promo
contains their newest creations which musically lies on the border between
black and death metal, perhaps a little closer to black, especially
considering the vocals and lyrics. The compositions are fairly good and with
several nice melodic riffs but still as a whole it feels a bit insipid and
even monotonous at times. The vocals are rather strong and varies between
usual black metal screeches and some kind of dark death growling. The sound
quality is one of the reasons why this demo at first seems worse than it
actually is; the guitars and vocals generally sound good but the drums and
some of the vocals has not been given the chance to shine by the
producer/studio. Something I like about Drohm is their ability to create
symphonic and atmospheric passages without using keyboards (not that keyboards
is something bad but anyway...). The title track of this promo is actually a
very good song and deserves a better production than
this.
