Review: Flame Imperishable – Glory and Ruin
Fantasy themed progressive power metal for all of you Stormlight Archive fans who also love prog.
Review: Dreadnought – The Endless
Dreadnought are back and you should definitely be listening to them.
Review: Aronious – Irkalla
The slinky dissonance of Aethereus collides with the technicality of the Deviant Process at a million miles per hour. This is The Artisan Era-core to a tee.
Review: Oreana – Dubai
A genre-fusion album that attempts to blend minimalist post-rock with meaty hard rock drums and guitars but is left lacking on both fronts.
Review: Xenoglyph – Spiritfraud
Warning us from another planet about technology’s imminent rise to overtake humanity, Xenoglyph write twisting black metal certain to appeal to fans of the genre’s more dissonant leanings.
Review: Gates to the Morning – Walk Between Worlds
An acoustic take on post-black metal that feels like the promise of spring breaking the grip of eternal winter.
Review: earth7 – Shine
A short and sweet instrumental djent EP with bright-shining guest stars.
Review: Without Waves – Comedian
Like the majestic flamingo, this is an inconsistent oddity, distracting to listen to yet perfectly adapted for its niche.
