A very dark, hard, heavy and melodic sound starts off the album along with some elements of goth rock and guitar leads that use a great amount of melody and dominate throughout the recording and when vocals are added into into the music they are all in a clean singing gothic metal direction and all of the musical instruments have a very powerful sound to them.
You can hear a lot of modern metal elements in the bands musical style along with a touch of thrash as well as a slight alternative feeling being used at times and some of the songs also bring clean playing into certain sections of the recording along with a few power ballads and when acoustic guitars are utilized they give the album more of a 70's rock feeling and when growls are utilized they bring in a touch of early 90's doom/death metal.and some of the later tracks also bring in a small amount of whispers and the last 3 tracks have a concept to them.
Ommatida plays a style of gothic metal that also brings in elements of melodic, modern and alternative metal along with a touch of death/doom metal to create a sound of their own, the production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover death and existence themes.
In my opinion Ommatida are a very great sounding dark and melodic gothic metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Immaculate" "Soiled" "A Lack Of Contrast In Life" and "Coming Full Circle Pt.3". 8 out of 10.
