Song Review: Frozen Factory "Call Off The Firing Squad"

Originally forming in Helsinki, Finland in 2018, metal act Frozen Factory has just released their latest single "Call Off The Firing Squad".

The track begins with atmospheric clean guitar that builds a prog-esque sound as groovy drums and gentle singing create a soft and melodic sound. The song slowly builds into electric guitar leads and more energetic vocals in its chorus, taking on a soft rock vibe, while distant heavy metal guitar leads can be heard. After the second chorus, soaring vocals and hard-hitting guitar create a deeply catchy but dynamic sound, and the song fades into a bridge as piano and distant screams and gunfire can be heard, building a dramatic but ambient soundscape. Singing slowly builds in energy as theatrical guitar chugs soon launch back into the track's final chorus.

With "Call Off The Firing Squad" Frozen Factory showcases a really unique sound that blends classic metal guitar, the dynamics of soft rock, progressive metal's atmospheric sounds, and even some classical piano elements. Overall, I think this is a catchy song that stands out with a sound that balances a gentle sound while still showing some alternative music edge.
