Review: Onségen Ensemble – Fear
The Good, The Bad, and The Psychedelic Spaghetti Western Post-Rock
The Good, The Bad, and The Psychedelic Spaghetti Western Post-Rock
An ambitious instrumental album that sends us through an ethereal journey by combining elements of djent and post rock.
An album made for the current moment: Post-Metal that reflects feelings of loneliness and isolation.
The Encounter seems to be an apt name for this album, seeing as this blend of jazz and almost death/tech style metal does seem to come from its own little planet outside of the rest of the scene.
This is the kind of album that just sort of rips out your throat, shows it to you, and says “isn’t this gnarly as hell?”.
Detailed rhythms highlighting shreddy, intense crescendos with keyboard acrobatics for energy in standard-but-not-standard prog metal.
A wonderful 31-minute song combining tech death with Opethian songwriting – a must hear album.
