Our Take
Our Take
Spook the Horses have returned with their latest offering, "Empty Body," and it's safe to say that they have once again delivered the goods. This New Zealand band has always had a knack for creating atmospheric and intense music that grabs hold of your senses and doesn't let go, and this album is no exception.
From the moment the opening track kicks in, you're transported to a dark and moody landscape that is equal parts haunting and beautiful. The band's ability to blend elements of post-rock, metal, and even a touch of shoegaze is on full display here, creating a sound that is uniquely their own.
The musicianship on display throughout "Empty Body" is top-notch, with each member of the band bringing their A-game to the table. The guitar work is intricate and dynamic, the rhythm section is tight and powerful, and the vocals are both haunting and ethereal.
Standout tracks on the album include the brooding "Inheritance," the atmospheric "Rites of Disaffection," and the epic closer "Made Shapeless." Each song takes you on a journey through the band's sonic landscape, leaving you both exhilarated and emotionally drained by the end.
Overall, "Empty Body" is a triumph for Spook the Horses, showcasing their growth as musicians and further solidifying their place as one of the most exciting bands in the post-rock/metal scene. Do yourself a favor and give this album a listen - you won't be disappointed.
