Our Take
Our Take
Anciients’ “Heart Of Oak” on grey vinyl is a wild ride through a forest of progressive, melodic metal. This Vancouver-based band not only showcases their technical prowess on this album, but also their ability to craft captivating, epic tracks that will have you headbanging one minute and contemplating the mysteries of the universe the next.
From the moment the needle hits the record, you are transported to a world where riffs reign supreme and solos soar higher than a dragon on a quest for treasure. The intricate guitar work on tracks like “Raise the Sun” and “Falling in Line” will leave you spellbound, while the thundering drums on “The Longest River” will have you air-drumming like there’s no tomorrow.
Vocalist Kenny Cook’s versatile voice adds another layer of depth to the already rich instrumentation, with his growls and soaring melodies guiding you through each song like a wise old wizard leading you on a mystical journey. The production on this album is top-notch, capturing the raw energy of the band’s live performances while still maintaining a polished sheen.
Overall, Anciients’ “Heart of Oak” is a must-listen for any fan of progressive metal, or anyone looking to inject some epicness into their music collection. So grab your grey vinyl, press play, and let the riffs wash over you like a tidal wave of sonic bliss. 10/10, would headbang again.
