Demon Head are a band from Denmark that plays a mixture of doom metal and hard rock and this is a review of their 2015 album "Ride The Wilderness" which was released on cassette by Caligari Records.
Clean playing starts off the album giving the music a 70's vibe and after awhile the music starts to get harder along with elements of psychedelia before adding in traditional doom metal style of vocals which also takes the recording into more of a dark and heavy direction and the guitar solos and leads also add in more of a proto metal style.
Some of the tracks are very long and epic in length and all of the songs sound like they could of easily been recorded and released in the 70's and some songs also bring in a small amount of bass guitar leads and the whole album sticks to a very slow, dark and retro musical direction from beginning to ending of the recording.
Demon Head plays a musical style that goes back to the 70's forms of doom metal and hard rock and also avoids any modern styles of the past 40 or more years, the production sounds very old school while the lyrics cover Occultism and Dark Fantasy themes.
In my opinion Demon Head are a very great sounding retro mixture of doom metal and hard rock and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Undertaker" Ride The Wilderness" and "The Greatest Lie". 8 out of 10.
