Render by Valis Ablaze sits in the djent/progressive metal genre. If you have listened to Tesseract or Skyharbor you will know the kind of sound to expect. Delicate guitar riffs and solos over the top of the pounding guitar and bass combo that you would expect with this genre. Great clean vocals throughout with the sprinkling of the occasional harsh vocal. The best way I found to listen to this album was in one go as it flows very well, although as far as I know it is not a concept album. The reason I say listen to the whole album, is I found it hard to pinpoint one standout track, it is solid album with no dud tracks. The production on the album is great, each element is easy to pick from the mix without one instrument dominating the other. Songs to check out: Hollow Heart, Neon Dreaming, and Elevation.
