Song Review // 2022-01-20

Hooded Menace

The Tritonus Bell

Blood Ornaments

---

Vocals

The vocal stayed consistent, not too much variety.

Music

I was surprised by the music in this. I don't know what I was expecting. I preferred the more thrashy sections because they had more life behind them. The change half-way through was a welcome one. The riff at the end was good. The solo displays talent, but doesn't keep my attention. Overall, I found it relaxing (relaxing song called Blood Ornaments... Yikes! I guess I am weird).

Lyrics

I don't totally get the idea here, but it feels like we are giving up on everything and heading towards our grave. The name made it feel like it was going to be a fight, but there is no fight here...

Senses flicker cold
Transfixed by the descent
Beneath the soil emitting ire
The vine grew one more name

Fall, cherish the raw numbness
Undressed from carnal masquerades
Where the carcass vines grow long
Slowly downwards
Slowly engage
