| 3.5 great | cryptside | August 12th 14 |
Invocation of Nehek's self-titled is very dynamic for a metalcore record, and a great early
example of why so many listeners flocked to bands like Unearth and Through the Eyes of the
Dead in the early 2000s. The vocals vary from a high-pitched shriek to a low growl and are
executed spendidly. They end up being the highlight of Invocation of Nehek, if only
for the fact that the instrumentation takes on a somewhat similar sound throughout. The
breakdowns are also surprisingly powerful, given the fact that they are (for the most part)
well-timed and groovy. There are influences outside of the norm that help this stand out as
well, such as the tranquil instrumentation present on "Drawing Blood From A Stone". The
overall execution of this album leaves quite a bit to be desired, and certainly would have
led to an even more varied and dynamic sophomore release had they continued on.
