Our Take

Album Review: KLONE - Meanwhile

It seems that KLONE has taken a detour into the whimsical with their latest album, "Meanwhile." This French progressive metal band has always been known for their intricate instrumentals and emotive vocals, but this time they've added a new twist to their sound.

From the opening track, "The Other Shoe," it's clear that KLONE is not afraid to experiment with different musical styles. The blend of heavy riffs and dreamy synths creates a surprisingly catchy and accessible sound. It's like Radiohead meets Tool, with a touch of Muse thrown in for good measure.

Tracks like "Yonder" and "Spiral Down" showcase the band's technical prowess, with complex time signatures and virtuosic guitar solos. But it's the unexpected moments, like the jazzy interlude in "Into the Void" or the electronic-infused bridge in "The Great Oblivion," that really make this album stand out.

Lead singer Yann Ligner's vocals are as powerful as ever, soaring over the intricate instrumentation with a raw emotion that is both haunting and captivating. His lyrics touch on themes of isolation, introspection, and the passage of time, adding a depth to the music that is often lacking in the prog metal genre.

Overall, "Meanwhile" is a delightful surprise from KLONE. They may have veered off the beaten path, but the journey is well worth the ride. Whether you're a die-hard fan of progressive metal or just looking for something a bit different, this album is definitely worth a listen.
