Description
Unorthodox – Balance Of Power – Compact Disc
Unorthodox’s Balance of Power, released in 1994 by Hellhound Records, is a notable entry in the doom metal genre, particularly within the Washington D.C./Maryland scene. The album showcases the band’s innovative approach to traditional doom, blending heavy riffs with introspective lyrics.
Balance of Power features a mix of traditional doom metal elements and more experimental sounds. The album’s lyrics delve into themes of personal struggle, societal issues, and existential reflections, delivered through powerful vocals and intricate guitar work.
Critics have praised Balance of Power for its innovative songwriting and performance. One reviewer noted, ‘Unorthodox is one of the more exclusive and rare doom acts that I’ve come across and that’s a shame. While their debut album appears to be de facto unavailable from any source whatsoever (at least for a not-so-rip-off price), Balance of Power is reasonably available and should receive much more attention.’
For fans of doom metal seeking a blend of traditional and innovative sounds, Balance of Power offers a compelling listening experience.
