Void
Jadjow
In typical Void fashion, the music on 'Jadjow' demonstrates a distinct departure from the previous releases, whilst paradoxically remaining quintessentially Void. Skillfully mixing the aggressiveness of black metal with progressive music, a post-metal sensibility, noise-like leads and syncopated, hyper-technical drumming, this UK band managed to create something entirely unique and atypical, showcasing a voracious appetite for creating rich and complex soundscapes with incredible sense of purpose and direction. The vocals here are also extremely varied, melodic, at times choir-like, and play a massive role in redefining Void's eccentricity, creating a multi-layered masterpiece of experimental music that manages to push the boundaries of both aggression and sophistication at the same time.
