Dysperium is a relatively unknown American Black metal two-headed act. Dysperium is their cleverly titled debut album, released on Frostscald Records. Let's get to it.

On Dysperium, we're treated to doomy (read: slow and brooding) Black metal with an occasional Folk-y touch. It's not really all that extreme, on more than a few occasions it sounds more like darkened Doom or Heavy metal. It may be just me and my general lack of interest in Heavy metal, but it are exactly these moments in which the band looses my attention. Overall it's not all that bad though, the skill and a certain knack for well-flowing songs is there. It's just a little unengaging and middle-of-the-road. The fact that the flow is often interrupted by acoustic 'folky' instrumentals and whatnot doesn't really help their case. On top of that, the scream of the vocalist is only barely passable.
