Forever in Transit – A Coming to Terms
“A Coming to Terms” is sitting neatly between classic and modern progressive metal, with a sound that could be categorized as either.
Albums
Latest
Monochromatic Black – Predacious
It feels like they stripped down a lot of the sophisticated fluff, and almost voluntarily chose to make this EP a bit more messy and muscular.
Seven Spires – A Fortress Called Home
It has a unique signature sound that fits the entire album, despite songs varying from extreme metal monsters to groovy bangers, energetic symphonic or power metal tunes, ballads and even some doom metal elements.
Meden Agan – My Name is Katherine
If you too are a fan of dramatic storytelling, blisteringly fast drums, epic orchestrations, swirling guitar leads and multi-faceted vocals, then I suggest you look no further.
Evulsion – Spiritual Putrefaction
Evulsion’s debut record, “Spiritual Putrefaction” has one job to do and it does it exceptionally well. It slaps!
