I mean if those bands aren't your thing no big deal, but they're basically a groovier less heavy Opeth e: actually I don't even listen to Tool they just have similar bass style to the few Tool songs I've heard Snow Cone Capone fucked around with this message at 04:38 on Feb 2, 2019 |

Here is a single https://youtu.be/I4LDxWlveKE The rest of the album lives up to the single, good stuff. Speaking of which, I just got a side gig as the promo wrangler for a local metal/rock website. Holy hell do the labels like to push every goddamn new lovely softcore band as "THE BIG NEW THING CIRCULATE THIS MARKETING BLURB HEAVILY THROUGH ALL CHANNELS!". At least I just have to handle the promo album downloads, not the marketing wank. E: And it's so painfully obvious how many sites just copy/paste the marketing blurbs straight from the labels for their "news". Re: other bands from Greece, don't forget Septicflesh.

Fenrir posted:God drat They are excellent. As Nordick linked, check their other albums there's some amazing stuff there. This is actually shaping up to be their least satisfying album in terms of quantity but it's definitely hitting the mark on quality. The first album, Roots, is a bit wanky. 6 minute brooding bass introduction before anything happens and I believe the drums are synthesised but it's otherwise enjoyable. Both Aura and Guardians fail to disappoint me at all. There's a music video for Bròn https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W9bMRTvmvQQ and some decent live footage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0qeVhYZ2PQ

Yeah, I immediately started digging. The full Aura and Guardian albums are on youtube, so I played those back to back before coming around to the two new songs again. Not sure how I managed to miss these guys for 4+ years but they're certainly on my radar now. I love this loving thread, you guys are awesome.

I really liked Aura when I found it a few years ago, but somehow never ended up listening to it a whole lot. Been spinning Guardians quite a bit lately and been loving it, and now these two songs are also bloody great. Some loving beautiful riffing.

It's not as great but still worth a listen. Catch them live if you can. They're doing their first US show at this thing. I'm headed up to Glasgow for them next month. Fairly interesting how varied the crowd is, they seem like they're able to impress people who don't even particularly like metal.

Aura rules hard because it has Austin Lunn on drums. It also gets me very misty eyed and nostalgic for Scotland even though I have never even been to Europe. I did go to a college with bagpipers though.
