Review: Overtoun – This Darkness Feels Alive
Overtoun’s back must be hurting from the weight of all the OSDM bands they are carrying to the new era of metal.

Summoner’s Circle arguably learns from past albums and illustrates a concise picture. This is a focused execution of dark synths, death-doom, and blackened death metal influences.
Fantastically intricate blackened death metal with classic energy but bass-heavy and dissodeath-inspired chops.
Melodic death doom that needs some work on the death part.
The songs take a lot of strange turns, with chord changes and melodies never quite leading where you expect, but ending up somewhere tasteful nonetheless.
This blackened deathcore album will chill you with its brutally crushing downtuned riffs, and agonizing gutturals. If you’re not mentally prepared for this album, I’d turn elsewhere.
Progressive dystopian-space-thrash that isn’t a Vektor clone. A must-listen.
The best groove metal album to come out over the past couple years. This is will please headbangers and Meshuggah fans alike.
