Video Premiere: Kylesa’s ‘Unspoken’

Posted on Monday, June 17th, 2013

Roadburn is proud to unveil the amazing new video for Kylesa’s ‘Unspoken.’ Directed by Brodie Rush with art by Tyson Schroeder, Kylesa have crafted a dark, brooding opus to the end times on their recently released album, Ultraviolet.

Pummeling riffs and swirling solos lead into monstrous musical passages on what is surely one of the best records of 2013.  ‘Ultraviolet’ was released on May 24th by Season of Mist.

“This is by far Kylesa’s most progressive, psychedelic, melodic and yet dark album to date; lyrically and sonically this is a journey and a vision for those willing to indulge the band the chance to truly grow beyond themselves.

Like the slow burning track Drifting which closes out the album, it may not immediately leap out of the speakers and grab you in an obvious manner on first listen, but for the patient, this is an incredibly powerful experience from one of the most interesting bands around at the moment” – Mark Hunt-Bryden / The Sleeping Shaman.

Album of the day: Drudkh – Eternal Turn of the Wheel

Posted on Thursday, March 1st, 2012

Lovingly pinched from Blistering.com: By standard of convention, Drudkh’s 2010 opus Handful of Stars was anything but conventional. It laid off the distortion yet was still heavy, it was black metal sounding but didn’t beg and borrow from Burzum, and was ethereal without using over-used atmospheric elements. In essence, Handful ...read more
