The Long Road North

by Cult of Luna

supported by

kingpotaten Simultaneously beautiful and brutal, the new standard for post-metal. Favorite track: The Long Road North.

pinkytheent “Post-metal” can often be guilty of merely being loud and lingering. Cult of Luna totally dodge this pitfall. I think I most enjoyed the many textures throughout this album; percussive items beyond drums, emotive synth swells, untraditional instruments. Cult of Luna create a totally unique flavor to express their musical colors. I loved the powerful CHURN that swirled through much of this album, from the beginning horns and drums, carried forward by an excellent rhythm section. Favorite track: Cold Burn.

trainh13 Probably their strongest work since Somewhere Along the Highway, this album finds CoL at their absolute peak Favorite track: The Silver Arc.

Stare Into Death And Be Still
by Ulcerate

supported by 521 fans who also own “The Long Road North”

The album description mentions an “emotional apex.” That’s really the difference between Stare and the band’s previous albums. Ulcerate was always supremely technically proficient. I just didn’t care all that much. Their growth has come from making music you will feel. Metallurgical Fire
