More about 'Exul'

When Australian progressive extreme metal masters Ne Obliviscaris unleashed "Exul" in March 2023, they delivered what many considertheir finest work to date - a wholly unique sound that's never been better. Born from the chaos of pandemic-era recording across multiple studios and continents, thisfourth LP had a challenging conception with tracking commencing in March 2020, keeping the band apart physically for the recording process. The Latin title means "exile," perfectly capturingpeople's sentiments about the pandemic and Ukraine invasion, with each person having their own story about banishment involving unwanted departure and journeys into torment, passion, longing and despair.The album feels truly organic and alive, embodied immediately with opener "Equus," where interactions between twin vocalists Tim Charles and Xenoyr weave the overarching tapestry.

The 52-minute journey showcasesthe band's distinctive sound derived from an amalgamation of extreme metal, black-metal and prominent violin parts, along with powerful clean and harsh vocals, all entwined in progressive compositions.The band's trademark blend of emotion and beauty is as towering as ever, with haunting violin lines carefully weaving around the riffs while the duality of Charles' clean vocals and Xenoyr's growls remains the narrative anchor.With their technical chops and compositional creativity, Ne Obliviscaris grabs the listener from a song's opening note and don't let go, with the whole album having an even greater impact than the sum of its parts. From themonster opener "Equus" that creeps up over frequent listens until it attacks with full forceto themellow "Anhedonia" featuring Charles' most passionate singing before ending with a cacophony of strings, this isan unconventional, irrational, uncontrollable yet highly enjoyable album with its fair share of madness and sheer creativity.

For fans of: Opeth, Between the Buried and Me, Rivers of Nihil, Persefone and Cynic
