""Key to a Vanishing Future" is an intended departure from the sounds explored throughout the band's back catalog, while still retaining characteristics inherent to Falls of Rauros. Never content to make the same album twice, the group has once again invited new influences into their aesthetic, this time including more explicit nods to death metal and prog rock while still drilling deeper into the black metal and North American folk-rock that makes up their core sound. This is once again their heaviest album to date, as well as their most technically demanding."



stoked to hear it

The part after the 5 min mark is great



Rest is very questionable



Guess I'll have to wait till I can listen to the single alongside the rest of the album for perhaps a more rewarding experience

I could definitely be persuaded to dive into another FoR record, although the description above sounds erm... unexpected

Gave it a listen, it's a lot to take in. Some elements are new while still retaining a lot of the vibe from previous releases, definitely still retains a lot of similar qualities to PiM. Their last two records solidified them as one of my favorite black metal bands these days so will absolutely spend a lot of time with this new record when it drops

Agree with your analyses. I'm not a complete fan, but then again some of sounds they make touch me *there*

Going to hold off on the single/s at the moment. Can say I am pretty well stoked now for the end of March

The more I listen to this song, the more I am impressed with the track/confused with some people’s mixed reaction. I absolutely love how the band is further indulging in their prog rock influences without being OVERindulgent. Like DungeonBoy mentioned, they are bringing new sounds to the table but haven’t forsaken their core Falls of Rauros-isms. This track gorgeous, and I think it’s awesome how the band have carved a very idiosyncratic feel melodically. Their songwriting is impressively recognizable without feeling recyclable. Obviously it’s early, but I would not be surprised if the new one is my AOTY.

i love both records, vigilance just edges it - but i'm happy with it sounding like either. or neither - stoked for the band to go off on a tangent

Didn’t love the new single. Not bad just kinda boring To be honest. Only really liked 4:30 or so to the end

I am liking the new track! Didn't dig this last record at all when the hype was bubbling, should revisit.
