More about 'Ultraviolet'

Kylesa's sixth studio album "Ultraviolet" represents a pivotal moment in the band's evolution, showcasing their ability to blend crushing heaviness with ethereal atmospherics. The Savannah-based quintet pushes their signature dual-drummer approach into uncharted territory, creating a sonic landscape that's both brutally heavy and surprisingly melodic. Tracks like "Exhaling" and "We're Taking This" demonstrate the band's knack for crafting memorable hooks without sacrificing their sludge metal roots, while the title track "Ultraviolet" serves as a perfect example of their ability to seamlessly weave together crushing riffs with hypnotic, almost psychedelic passages.

The album's production strikes an ideal balance between clarity and rawness, allowing each instrument to breathe while maintaining the crushing weight that Kylesa is known for. The dual vocal approach of Phillip Cope and Laura Pleasants creates a dynamic interplay that ranges from soaring clean melodies to guttural growls, adding layers of complexity to already intricate compositions. Songs like "Long Gone" and "What Does It Take" showcase the band's progressive tendencies, incorporating elements that wouldn't sound out of place on a Mastodon or Baroness record, yet maintaining Kylesa's distinct identity throughout.

For fans of: Mastodon, Baroness, High on Fire, and Neurosis
