Pressure’s approach to heavy metal/story metal combines superb musicianship with a genuine love of the genre conceptually remarkable. The single “Behind Closed Doors” contains a massive amount of unique music that adheres to a centralized concept and tone. The band clearly does their own thing, and those strands can be heard throughout.
Olof Jönsson, who hails from Stockholm, Sweden, is known for his soaring, well-executed, and committed voice. Forsell and Emil Salling offer a captivating, never bored twin-guitar sound with lyricist and lead guitarist Simon “Siirpo.” The band then added Olli Violet in the summer of 2021, who has proven to be a valuable addition. The Republic of Belarus’s Olli Violet’s gorgeous, attractive, sensual, and metal voice is a gift to the band and the Pressure family.
Their work typically emphasizes and acknowledges the pressures of everyday living. Their songs emphasize that every story has two sides: good and opposing. Every piece has a double meaning, and they truly see music as a tool for dealing with the different demands that the modern world places on us.
The band’s journey began in 2018, and they’ve worked tirelessly since then to improve their sound and live performance. What is their goal? To take their audience on extraordinary musical experiences and share memories (story metal).
“Behind Closed Doors” was performed and recorded with a razor-sharp finish to a magnificently warped wall of heaviness. The beginning drum beat and riff are everything Heavy metal and story metal fans adored when the sound first became popular.
The song “Behind Closed Doors” is an excellent place to start. The piece leaps into the spotlight with massively distorted yet fashionably melodic guitar and drum chords. It is followed by an absolutely enthralling wall of well-crafted music and performances.
The lead vocalist is the one who conveys the band’s thoughts and melodies with great power and sincerity. The music is solid and attention-grabbing, yet it is also indisputably skillful in its delivery.
“Behind Closed Doors” amps up the heaviness even further. The music’s tone has a certain craziness to it from the start, and it claws at you as you listen. The shudder of the leading guitar and percussion riff starts it, and the vocal performances that make up the verse add to it.
If you like heavy metal, narrative metal, or any harder-hitting rock genres, this is one to get lost in.
