Embryo is a melodic death metal band from Italy. This is their sophomore effort, following up their 2006 debut record. The group has gone through a couple of member changes since that album, and now this record comes out with 3 new members.
Embryo is, as stated, a melodic death metal band, but they have a sound that's a bit more extreme than most bands in that genre tend to be. While this is no doubt a death metal, each instrument seems to call in something different, the keys really bring a symphonic edge that seem to carry most of the melody, the guitars, bass, and drums really have more of a groovy death metal style that occasionally goes a bit technical, and finally the vocals have a bit of a deathcore/brutal death metal style. The combination of all of these styles is a bit unorthodox, and it does take a bit of time to grow on you, but some might find this to be what makes this band stand out a bit more than others.
