Hemina - Romancing the Ether (2023)

The fifth album from this band from Australia.

The band is a quartet with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars, keyboards and vocals.

A handful of guests added violin, viola, cello, organ, piano and vocals.

This band debuted back in 2012 and has delivered the goods on a frequent basis since then. They have even visited Europe on one than more occasion.

Progressive metal is what they play.... but with some twists. Colourful twists.

The band use both male and female vocals. The music is wandering towards symphonic prog on this album and can be found somewhere between that genre and prog metal. There are also a lot of eclectic prog here.

This album has only one piece of music, clocking in at thirty-five minutes. The music is bold and very complex. It is not easy to follow and this album require a lot of patience.

Nevertheless, this is a good album and one well worth checking out.
