Another Side of You

Description

Straight out of the gate, opener ‘ELEGY’ darkens the sonic sky with heavy riffs, ominous soundscapes, and a soothing chorus. Even a Theremin makes an appearance, showcasing the band’s experimental palette right from the beginning. Skal’s ethereal tapestries of cinematic greatness lie heavy over the pounding rhythm section. Even more so on its even heavier relative ‘CYCLONE’, which expands on this approach, making it the progressive pièce de résistance of the album with its cinematic swathes of sound, Meshuggah-esque lead guitar assaults, and even a majestic finale reminiscent of Pink Floyd having a child with Tesseract.
