Review: Trailight – Sophia
One-man Canadian prog rock that isn’t too bad, eh?
Review: Apokrisis – Misanthropy
A modern, extremified take on tech-thrash with solid energy.
Review: The Spectre Beneath – The New Identity of Sidney Stone
Once again, they’ve found a nice spot between quirkiness and traditional metal that only sounds like themselves.
Review: Obsidian Mantra – Minds Led Astray
Eerie, groovy prog death out of Poland that is worth a listen
Review: Anderwelt – 2084
On the nose Orwellian post-metal.
Review: Omnivortex – Diagrams of Consciousness
Just a ripping technical death metal album that does not have a single boring moment or riff. And there are a lot of riffs.
Review: Avandra – Skylighting
Ethereal prog from Puerto Rico that grows on you.
Review: IER – 妖怪
A 95 minute behemoth that’s guaranteed to blow your socks off.
Review: Onségen Ensemble – Fear
The Good, The Bad, and The Psychedelic Spaghetti Western Post-Rock
Review: Starbynary – Divina Commedia: Paradiso
Despite some moments of promise, most of the album is stuck in the dead zone of “complex but not interesting” prog parts.
