Our Take
IHSAHN's latest release, "After (Rsd 2021)," is a mind-bending journey through the furthest reaches of the musical universe. The Norwegian prog-metal veteran showcases his masterful command of complex rhythms, haunting melodies, and otherworldly vocals in this mesmerising album.
From the moment the needle hits the groove, listeners are transported to a realm where rules are meant to be broken and boundaries are meant to be pushed. Each track is a sonic odyssey, filled with unexpected twists and turns that leave you on the edge of your seat, eagerly awaiting the next sonic onslaught.
IHSAHN's guitar work is nothing short of mesmerising, weaving intricate patterns that snake their way through the sonic landscape like a musical serpent. His vocals are equally captivating, veering from guttural growls to ethereal melodies with effortless grace.
Standout tracks include the mesmerising "Strangenaught," the epic "Dead Air," and the haunting "Transit." Each song is a unique piece of the musical puzzle, coming together to create a cohesive and immersive listening experience.
Overall, "After (Rsd 2021)" is a true masterpiece that solidifies IHSAHN's status as a musical genius. It's a must-listen for anyone who craves music that challenges, intrigues, and ultimately transports them to another realm. Trust me, you don't want to miss out on this one.
