Mind Over Depth

Pete Blum A listen-through on Spotify knocked me off my feet! Must go deeper!

Alrihkh Great concept album! I love the way the rhythm section aggressively sets the tone and punctuates the album’s moods, and how the vocals stress the album’s emotional content. Tension and feelings are almost palpable. The songs are finely crafted and expertly performed, and the instruments complement each other sublimely. I love the narrative voice that is employed to express the underlying thoughts and subconscious struggles ongoing throughout the album. Great guitar, too. This album is intense, and rocks hard and heavy! If you’re a fan of Porcupine Tree and The Paradox Twin, check this album out. A creative masterpiece! 9/10.

Thank you, Cosmograf! Favorite track: Sharks.

Deej This is the edgiest release and the best one I think, yet another reminder to review my wishlist as it was hiding there.

about

Everything going on in our minds - every thought, feeling, sensation, everything we are aware of - is in fact happening only in our private internal worlds. Our reality is defined by the attention we give to these thoughts and the negative ones can inevitably lead to us feeling out of our depth...
Mind Over Depth is characteristically introspective and allegorical like much of my work, but this record is much heavier than my previous albums with influences that draw from modern progressive metal, electronica and classic heavy metal.
I’m joined on the album by Kyle Fenton on drums who played on 2017’s The Hay Man Dreams and special guest Colin Edwin (Porcupine Tree/ O.R.k), who played on the 2014 release, Capacitor.

What can I say about Big Big Train that I haven’t said before? This album took a little while to grow on me but by the time I saw it live I was in love with its humongous, over-egged pomposity! They do it all with such passion, excitement and amazing musicianship. Essential. Crinklechips

These guys have horns and cellos, and they're not afraid to use them. If you're looking for a Yes or Genesis clone you're out of luck, but if you want a band who take the time to stretch out and give a song time to develop you're in luck. I'm going to change my mind about my favourite track regularly. Oh, and flutes. PartTimeZombie
