Mandroid Echostar - Catchy prog metal with clean vocals
Anaal Nathrakh - Grind/black metal with industrial influences
The Arcane Order - Long-form melodic death metal
Arcania - Kinda like a thrashier Gojira
Rivers of Nihil - Proggy death metal
Unfathomable Ruination - Brutal tech death
Thantifaxath - Dissonant black metal
We Lost the Sea - Post-metal. I need to give some context for this one:
Departure Songs is inspired by failed, yet epic and honourable journeys or events throughout history where people have done extraordinary things for the greater good of those around them, and the progress of the human race itself. This is a celebration and a tribute. Each song has it’s own story and is a soundtrack to that story.
This is our 3rd album and our first instrumental album. We’re exploring new ground and exploring ourselves in the past 2 and a bit years since Chris went on his own journey. It’s slightly bleak with shimmers of hope and layers of emotion. It’s a tribute and a catharsis of emotion and honesty.
I.e., their vocalist died and this was their way of grieving. Incredibly deep cut IMO.
Alpinist - "heavylowfastslowdark hardcore"
Echostar reminds me of Witchcraft in that his vocals are so clean that it almost doesn't jive with the genre.
I don't dislike it by any means. Just have to work a little to get into it. Echostar is unbelievably technical. Their syncopation and noise control are otherworldly
