SEKIZLER

From what I can tell, with all the various thematic album art for these singles, this was the first of a few tracks that were slated for an album that has, at least as of yet, not seen the light of day. This is also apparently their first release in about 5 years. Here's to hoping for more from them...

In Nekropsi fashion, Sekizler is a very rhythmically focused song. And unsurprising to me, though I've actually never explicitly made this comparison (and put it in writing), it has a vibe about it reminiscent to me of Tool. The drums do sound pretty good here. Great to not hear plastic, obnoxious sampling or harsh clicks here... [See my review for the 2013 album...]. I've made this comparison before, too, to their also-Turkish contemporaries Çilekeş. Something about the way the guitars sound at times. But yeah, a more modern Prog-Metal feel is here in part, but it's not super heavy. Nor is it, like I've come to know them, super compositionally interesting. But yeah... Not bad.
