Captain Midnight
4 stars Easily on of KGs best albums originally I expected this to be a decent record, nothing amazing, but still a nice addition to their catalogue especially since I'm not the biggest Gizzhead and Rats Nest/metal Gizzard isn't my favorite, however after listening to the record, I am absolutely impressed and I'm actually gonna go back to that record. This time they went full on Prog Metal the album having elements of Metallica, TOOL, and Mastadon, stylistically the album very eclectic with synth passages over Metallica like guitar riffing with Danny Carey like drums as well as elements of Trash, Djet and Doom/Heavy Psych Metal, and dispite the previous comparisons this may be KGs most original sounding album, like i genuinely want more Prog Metal like this No joke, this thing is a prog monster very fitting of it's apocalyptic imagery. In conclusion this is a very original Prog Metal album, if you need something that isn't riding the coattails of Dream Theater or Djent then this is what you want my only problem is that the LP has one more track that isn't on any digital version like I'm more then sure it'd get uploaded to YouTube but c'mon Gizzard
