Our Take

CULT OF LUNA's Vertikal (10 Year Anniversary Edition) is a sonic journey through the depths of post-metal despair, reminding us that life is fleeting and the cosmos are vast. Originally released in 2013, this reissue breathes new life into an album that solidified the band's status as pioneers of the genre.

From the haunting opening track "The One" to the epic closer "Passing Through," CULT OF LUNA take us on a rollercoaster of emotions, with crushing riffs and atmospheric interludes that transport us to a dystopian future where humanity is on the brink of collapse. It's a bleak yet strangely beautiful landscape, much like a gritty British kitchen sink drama.

The remastered sound on this anniversary edition is top-notch, bringing out the nuances in the band's intricate instrumentation and allowing each element to shine through. The production is crisp and polished, adding a new layer of depth to the album's already dense atmosphere.

While the themes of Vertikal may be dark and heavy, there is a sense of catharsis in the music that is truly exhilarating. It's the kind of album that demands to be listened to in one sitting, preferably with a cup of strong tea and a stiff upper lip.

In conclusion, CULT OF LUNA's Vertikal (10 Year Anniversary Edition) is a timeless masterpiece that still holds up a decade later. It's a testament to the band's creativity and innovation, and a must-listen for anyone who appreciates music that pushes boundaries and challenges the status quo. Cheerio!
