Our Take

Danish metalcore band APHYXION has crafted an album with “As Astrain” that is as heavy as it is innovative. From the moment the first track “Ethereal Reality” kicks in, listeners are taken on a sonic journey that is equal parts brutal and beautiful.

The band seamlessly blends elements of melodic metalcore with bone-crushing breakdowns, creating a sound that is both familiar and fresh. Lead vocalist Michael Vahl’s guttural screams are matched by haunting clean vocals, adding depth and emotion to the already intense instrumentals.

Tracks like “Red Ribbon” and “Child of Light” showcase APHYXION’s ability to seamlessly transition between moments of quiet introspection and all-out aggression. The band’s dynamic songwriting keeps the listener on their toes, never quite knowing what to expect next.

As Astrain” is not just another metalcore album; it’s a statement of intent from a band that is poised to take the metal scene by storm. With their relentless energy and undeniable talent, APHYXION prove that they are a force to be reckoned with in the world of heavy music.

Overall, “As Astrain” is a must-listen for any fan of metalcore or heavy music in general. APHYXION has delivered a powerhouse of an album that is sure to leave a lasting impression on anyone who dares to listen. So crank up the volume and prepare to be blown away by the sheer brilliance of APHYXION.
