Let me introduce to you the metal rock band Insipidus and their new progressive death metal album ‘Nearest Dusk’. The album opens without warning strong powerful you know as if it had already been playing somewhere before on an underground stage where the 90s still live in the body of a guitar riff. I like that ‘Nearest Dusk’ grew out of street performances and tiny sets spreading its wings into a full studio form.

Seven tracks rush by with precision and speed. ‘A Hill of Ash’ instantly captures attention. By ‘Impossible Choice’ the tempo turns into a furious storm and the final track ‘Red Sand’ leads into experimentation the guitars change rhythm the bass becomes the pulse and the air around the vocals thickens into a tangible tension. It was all stunning.

Nearest Dusk is an album that can easily be placed alongside the best releases of the new wave of melodic death metal clean confident and incredibly alive. Absolutely recommend it!
