Mixerr Album Reviews #550

This is Michael Mixerr. Today I will review British heavy metal band Sylosis album Dormant Heart from 2015! All you metal heads out there will endeavor this short album review!

The whole album gives off an eerie vibe with the thrash metal meets death metal genre of Rock music. This Dormant Heart album will remind you of albums by Misfits, Bleed From Within, Cannibal Corpse, Amorphis, Firebird, and Nevermore. The Dormant Heart album will remind you of the Carcass - Surgical Steel album. I sure thought it did. It will be an album you will regret not listening to! Zero (The Smashing Pumpkins Cover), Quiescent, Callous Souls, and Mercy are the best songs from the album Dormant Heart!

But something not totally righteous happened, Rob Callard departed Sylosis before the release of Dormant Heart. Something which I did not expect. How sad.

Anyway… Now I will discuss the artworks design of the album artwork for the front cover.
Watercolor medium painting for the album artwork gives off an eerie horror brooding vibe and feel when you first look at the album cover itself for the first time. The dark colors of green, teal, black, and blue ink make the album artwork seem very opaque. Completely opposite of gouache. The painting looks cool regardless.

I rate this album, Dormant Heart, 5/5*****!!
