Descend may be the band that us Opeth fans have been looking for all these years. This is an album that is truly remarkable. A faithful continuation of Opeth’s formula all while keeping updated with the meta of twenty years of progressive death metal.
Small text to lure people into reading the review.
I hate metalcore – why do I like this?
A claustrophobic exploration of hope and suffering through tight, ferocious death metal.
A wonderful, well written Progressive Metal album that will remind you of early/mid era BTBAM while being very much its own voice.
Transcending the common tropes of Black Metal and bridging the gap with Post-Metal in style.
Here is that love child of Alice in Chains and Opeth that you didn’t know you needed.
A uniquely harrowing look into Alzheimer’s disease, The Oubliette is an emotional progressive metal powerhouse
This must be the heaviest power metal album ever recorded up till now.
Atmospheric, well made Black Metal which has restored this reviewer’s faith in the genre.
