A very melodic guitar lead starts off the album along with some heavy riffs that also use a great amount of melody along with a great amount of old school thrash influences and after awhile female vocals are added onto the recording while clean playing can also be heard in certain sections of the recording.
A great amount of d beat elements can be heard in the drumming and the vocals also bring in aggressive shouts at times and they also mix in a great amount of psychedelic sounds and 80's influences and some songs see them adding in old school hardcore and crossover along with male style power metal vocals.
A lot 60's and 70's progressive rock sounds can be heard throughout the recording and some of the screams are in more of a black metal style while some songs also bring in a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with a few of the tracks being very long and epic in length. and all of the musical instruments have a very powerful sound to them and there is also an instrumental that also introduces pianos to the recording and all of t he songs bring in a great amount of diversity and sound different from each other.
Vhol creates a recording that takes thrash, black metal and crust and mixes it with power metal and psychedelic rock to create something very original sounding, the production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover science fiction themes.
In my opinion Vhol are a very great sounding mixture of black, thrash, power metal, crust and psychedelic rock and if you are looking for something very original, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "3AM' "Red Chaos" and "The Tomb". 8 out of 10.
