Hecatoncheir – Nightmare Utopia
It has enough maturity and musical understanding to help keep its freshness
It has enough maturity and musical understanding to help keep its freshness
Just in time for the sunshine and the summer’s warm embrace, we are given an album that will be played a lot during the scorched daze ahead.
The album is visceral and difficult to be sure, but also a brilliant Trojan horse for potential.
Do not sleep on this one. I’m confident I’ll be talking about it again at the end of the year.
This is coming at you a little late, but enjoy some of our favorites from February 2024.
“A Scarlet Lunar Glow” is a powerful statement about to be released on the world.
Bleak. Dark. Hopeless. That is the “3:33 EP.”
The key point here is that the album is excellent, a brutal example of tech death as it should be, chock full of malevolent soul and spiteful menace.
Prominent bass, nasty riffs, and an overall belligerence do make Fatal Visions a memorable track.
