Our Take
Our Take
Alustrium's latest offering, "A Monument to Silence," is like taking a journey through a sonic cemetery, where each track is a tombstone inscribed with intricate guitar riffs and bone-chilling growls. The Philadelphia-based band has crafted an album that combines the heaviness of death metal with the technical prowess of progressive metal, resulting in a sound that is both haunting and exhilarating.
From the moment the first track, "Revelations in Oblivion," bursts into existence, it's clear that Alustrium is not here to play nice. The guitars scream, the drums pummel, and the vocals unleash a torrent of raw emotion. It's a cacophony of chaos and beauty that is as unsettling as it is mesmerizing.
But what truly sets "A Monument to Silence" apart is the band's ability to create moments of sheer brilliance amidst the chaos. Tracks like "Join the Dead" and "In His Own Image" showcase Alustrium's knack for crafting epic, sweeping compositions that are as grand as they are intimate.
Overall, "A Monument to Silence" is a testament to Alustrium's talent and vision. It's an album that will leave you breathless and exhilarated, a monument to the power of music to transport and transform. So sit back, turn up the volume, and let Alustrium take you on a journey through the dark and twisted landscape of their music.

About the artist
Alustrium
Alustrium, the prog-metal powerhouse hailing from Philadelphia, are not your average band. Combining technical precision with a love for the avant-garde, this group of musical maestros have been shaking up the metal scene since their inception in 2011. With a sound that's as dynamic as it is mind-bending, Alustrium are not content to simply stick to the formulaic tropes of their genre. Led by the versatile vocals of frontman Chris Kelly, Alustrium's music is a whirlwind of complex time signatures, blistering guitar riffs, and guttural screams that will leave you both mesmerized and slightly terrified. Their latest album, "A Monument to Silence", is a tour de force of progressive metal mastery, with tracks like "Deliverance for the Damned" and "Join the Dead" showcasing the band's uncanny ability to seamlessly blend brutality with beauty. But what truly sets Alustrium apart is their live performances. With a stage presence that can only be described as larger than life, this band knows how to captivate an audience from the moment they step foot on stage. From Kelly's manic energy to guitarist Mike Deamer's mesmerizing solos, watching Alustrium perform is a transcendent experience that will leave you questioning the very nature of reality. In a world where mediocrity reigns supreme, Alustrium are a breath of fresh air. So if you're ready to have your mind blown and your eardrums shattered, do yourself a favour and check out this band before they take over the world. Believe me, you won't regret it.
