Our Take

If you thought you were in for a peaceful, angelic experience with ISIS' latest album Holy Tears, think again. This record is like a sonic punch in the face, but in a good way. From the moment you press play, you're greeted with a wall of sound that's as intense as it is captivating.

The band's signature blend of post-metal and sludge is on full display here, with massive riffs and thunderous drums that hit you like a ton of bricks. But what sets Holy Tears apart is its unmistakable sense of melody. Tracks like "Not in Rivers, But in Drops" and "Holy Tears" are like dark, twisted lullabies that lull you into a false sense of security before hitting you with a sonic sledgehammer.

The production on this album is top-notch, with every instrument sounding crystal clear and powerful. The vocals are haunting and ethereal, weaving in and out of the music like a ghostly presence. And the lyrics, while often bleak and brooding, contain a sense of introspection and depth that elevates Holy Tears above your standard metal fare.

In conclusion, ISIS' Holy Tears is a masterclass in heavy music, combining sheer brute force with a surprising level of beauty and emotion. If you're a fan of bands like Neurosis or Cult of Luna, this album is a must-listen. Just make sure you've got a neck brace handy, because you're going to be headbanging non-stop.
