Zorya is a Slovenian atmospheric post-black metal and blackgaze project. The band so far has three studio products; an EP "Rusalka", the title of which also references Slavic mythology; an EP called "Primeval" and an EP called "Escapism". The music is an interesting mix of background ambient wash, screaming black metal vocals, puddling percussion and melodic post-rock, which is sometimes dark. Music might be considered as much noise as it is post-black metal or post-rock. In some songs, the attitude seems experimental, especially in the way the mood in individual tracks develops and is sustained by pauses or sparse instrumentation with little distortion. Songs certainly come across as fragmented, with the metal or rock parts suddenly dropping into ambient or orchestral wash and back.
Jan Oblak:
The new album contains elements of everyday life, which are intertwined with beautiful and tragic life events. The album is based on real events, which I took from a friend who told me about his life story. The album consists of six tracks, which are connected to each other just like in life. The album contains feelings expressed by male and female vocals. On this album, I collaborated with a great singer who comes from Finland. I classified the new album in the melancholic Post-Black Metal genre, with touches of Blackgaze and Ambient.
