It oozes depression.

Dhamphyr is a Rhode Island based one man black metal project that pumps out demos and EPs by the month. One of the more recent releases, To Vanish Into the Earth, is one of such EPs. The release contains 3 exceptionally depressing and ambient tracks of varying lengths. The music is long and atmospheric, featuring varying soundscapes and ambient experimentation. The demo can be rather boring but can also be a rather interesting ride to listen all the way through. It is easy to lose yourself in the waves of ambiance and psychedelic nonsense.

Fog-Soaked Mesmerism opens the EP with exactly what I described above - depressing, black, atmospheric soundscapes fit for an acid trip. Seeing as I don't do acid and don't plan to, the song has a lost value on me. However, this played at exceptionally loud volume could easily relax to unmeasurable amounts.

Melting the Ether is the longer track on the EP and has a much darker outlook and atmosphere. Still we have slow, atmospheric, black soundscapes, but here it is more wavy and pulsing. Again I think you really need to be in a drug induced state to truly appreciate this song, which I am not (and won't be) in.

The Yellow Sign of Hastur is just more of the same, with a little bit more audible happenings. Again the song is lost on someone who isn't high, but does have the acute ability to relax those who are stressed or are needing some way to just bathe in an effervescent and depressive swath of black ambient music.

ALBUM OVERALL: Well, there isn't much to say on the EP, but one thing I will say is that if one does plan on partaking in any kind of hallucinogenic, I recommend downloading the album, for I predict it will heighten the high quite a bit. Overall, the album does have some interesting qualities, especially with the trippy soundscapes, but there really isn't anything special about this EP. 2+ stars.
