Great album with new ideas constantly emerging and melodic to atonal vocals throughout as well. Similarly to Aksak Maboul’s Figures, I hear this album and immediately think that this is a great new route for prog to take. The other review on this page says it right that this is almost a Rascal Reporters if they weren’t so avant garde.

Black Steeple Church

At first blush this is darker than I normally gravitate to, yet I quickly found it not only compelling, but, ultimately (and strangely satisfyingly) very relatable. Hard/metal moments here never feel gratuitous, they serve each song's context. And the more melodic passages provide ample relief, creating a sort of enforced fugue state for contemplative balance. Like some of my favorite heavy bands from the classic era (Iron Butterfly, Cream) there is both sludge and beauty to be had here. 🤘🪨

by Yara Asmar
As the title implies, the latest from Lebanese artist Yara Asmar combines ambient synths with treated accordion in dreamlike songs.
