Portal
Portal is an Australian extreme metal band that blends death metal, black metal, dark ambient and experimental music. Their style features distorted guitar riffs, down-tuned rhythms, and vocals ranging from "menacing, echoing" sound effects to death grunts.
Adrien Begrand of Popmatters noted that "death metal always pretends to be scary, but [...] it's all rather harmless. That said, however, I make no mistake in saying that the death metal peddled by Australia's Portal is truly friggin' terrifying". Lead guitarist Horror Illogium has said Portal intends "to capture a cinematic horror scope". They have released seven full-length albums, as well as a number of EPs and split releases. Their most recent albums, Avow and Hagbulbia, were released in 2021 on Profound Lore Records.
