Our Take

BIG BRAVE's latest album, Ardor, is a brooding masterpiece that takes listeners on a sonic journey through dark, haunting landscapes. The Canadian trio's signature blend of heavy, sludgy riffs and ethereal vocals is in full force here, creating a sound that is as mesmerizing as it is menacing.

From the opening track, "Sibling," with its pulsating drums and dissonant guitar lines, to the hypnotic drones of "Sound," and the cacophonous climax of "Turning," Ardor is a gripping listen from start to finish. Vocalist Robin Wattie's haunting voice floats effortlessly over guitarist Mathieu Ball's dense, atmospheric textures, while drummer Louis-Alexandre Beauregard provides a solid backbone with his propulsive rhythms.

The album's production is top-notch, with every instrument and vocal line given ample space to breathe and shine. Each song builds and crescendos with an intensity that is both exhilarating and cathartic, leaving the listener feeling as though they have just emerged from a trance-like state.

Overall, Ardor is a triumph for BIG BRAVE, showcasing their ability to push boundaries and create music that is both challenging and beautiful. Fans of post-metal and experimental rock will find much to love here, as will anyone with a taste for music that is bold, uncompromising, and utterly captivating. So grab your headphones, turn up the volume, and let yourself be swept away by the sonic force of BIG BRAVE's Ardor.
