This is a review of a split ep between Belgium's Amenra and Madensuyu which was released in 2014 by Consouling Sounds and we will start of the review with Amenra a band that has been featured before in this zine with their sludge/doom metal sound but have gone for more of an acoustic direction on this recording.
Acoustic guitar playing starts off their side of the split and they bring in a post rock feeling to the recording and a few seconds later melodic clean singing vocals find their way into the music and they also have some dark lyrics in this song along with a very decent sounding production which lets the acoustic guitars come out a lot more.
Next up is Madensuyu a band that plays a very ethereal form of post rock.
Acoustic guitars start off their side of the split and they bring in a very dark feeling to the recording along with some elements of post rock and a few seconds later vocals are added into the music and they have a 60's folk rock feeling to them and the lyrics they use have a very dark subject matter along with a very raw yet powerful production and after awhile they add a little bit of distortion into the track.
In conclusion I feel this is a very great sounding split and I would recommend it to all fans of post rock and post metal. 8 out of 10.
