musicfed This is THE ultimate post-rock epic. A modern day classic of exploration and discovery, both musically and emotionally. Favorite track: The Last Sun.

jrsmith17 Always a joy to return to a band you hadn't thought of in a while to see if they're doing interesting new work only to find out that the answer is an emphatic yes! Favorite track: A Beautiful Collapse.

Sorocco This shit slaps so fucking HARD Favorite track: Mother's Hymn.

We Rose with the sun and fell into disgrace We Bled the earth dry while guilt soaked through our veins Are we really too late? Are we really too late? Are we really too late? Are we really too late?

about

Triumph & Disaster is a post-apocalyptic view on the collapse of the world told like a children’s story and illustrated through the eyes of a mother and her son as they spend one last day on Earth. The music is the narrative for the destruction and tragedy. The words tell the story of love, loss and letting go.

It is a sad love letter about the collapse of the planet as told through a lens of intricate guitars and striking colour. The album deliberates themes and events such as the climate crisis, over consumption, isolation and the loss of love and trust. It is a lament for the planet, all the people on it and the beauty that will be left behind.

This is a pre-order.
Triumph & Disaster is out October 4 via Bird's Robe Records (Australia) and October 25 via Translation Loss (US), Holy Roar (UK) and Dunk!Records (EU).

Je ne possède aucun disque metal instrumental. Sauf celui-ci. Et pour un gros fan de voix comme moi, ça en dit long. Pour la faire courte, le son est ENORME, et les riffs sont légendaires. Envoûtant. gregory duveau
