WAVING AT THE SKY

This is the second album from this Norwegian band. The music features heavy progressive elements and strong melodies, showcasing some breathtaking moments. 45 minutes that go so fast that you want more. There is the use of clean vocals and occasional growls throughout the album. Also, I enjoyed the loud bass sound and the cool drum parts. The band can go on a fast pace with some heavy passages and slow things down with some beautiful acoustic guitar parts. The songs have a natural flow in them that keeps you focused until the end. You can hear some influences from the Swedish school of Opeth and Anekdoten, which gives you an idea of how the music sounds here. If all the songs are excellent, and you don't want to skip any one of them, my favorites would be the angry "The Trauma" and the last one, "Waving to the Sky," displaying all the elements that the band uses on the previous songs with some tempo changes. The presence of Ross Jennings on one song brings the Haken influence, but I don't think it represents the sound of the album here.
