Order of the Dead - Captives (2025)


The album starts out with "Into Nothing", bringing you a dark lead guitar riff with a fast rhythm guitar and good drum fills. The main riff of this song then starts and then comes the vocals, another addition to the sinister sound of the track. Every aspect of this album is interesting, because all of the musicians on this album are filled with talent. The vocals has a very raspy voice and it works well here. He often sounds like he is snarling, as he fades from higher screams to lower growls. His uniqueness adds a lot of depth to the album and his style compliments the styles of both the guitars and the drums.

"Captives" manages to be sophisticated both musically and lyrically while staying coherent and interesting, which is a testament to the musicianship of everyone involved. I believe anyone who is a fan of this style of music, or even a fan of music in general, should give it a listen.
