We come to another band that even on their seventh album can still astonish you.
A Pathway To The Moon by Ureqvited has seen the man behind the band name utilises a lot more clean vocals and even lyrics as a counterpoint to the wordless screams of older releases.
Its epic, maudlin, uplifting and all consuming. Genres blur and become obsolete as the music twists it way into something darkly beautiful.
Standout track for me is The Starforger – 8 minutes featuring some amazing guitar soloing, growled black metal vocals, symphonic keyboards and possibly a kitchen sink. Honestly you can listen to the song multiple times and still hear something new each time.
Whatever music you enjoy, I would recommend you give this your full attention.
