In the Absence of Riffs... This descends a little far into lighter prog territory for my liking, where’s the sludge at guys? Almost an afterthought here. Prefer Celestial.

Turner made up for the lack of sludge on the last two ISIS albums in spades with his SUMAC output. Last two ISIS albums occupy a different slice of the heavy music Venn diagram but they’re still extremely powerful.

Yeah it took me a long time in getting around to this after finally coming around to loving Oceanic/Panopticon. I didn’t really know what to expect after that.

I am interested in checking out Sumac regardless, might be more up my alley.

Wavering Radiant is leagues better than this, as is Celestial. Defs worst Isis

Band did no wrong. Legend.



@Demon - Highly recommend What One Becomes by SUMAC. The others are far more avant-garde/experimental so results may vary.

Thanks. I’ll check WR first, Johnny gives me hope and it’s always nice to complete the set.

@Inoc: idk depends on the teeth, ironically this actually lacks bite.

This is growing on me. I feel like the crescendos are a tad on the ‘plainly obvious‘ side, but sometimes that’s okay. Definitely thinking WR is better.

I think the best trait of this album is its darker vibe, also I never had a problem with the crescendos because the payoff is really good, Dulcinea comes to mind
