In The Woods - Cease the Day (2018)

The fifth album from this band from Norway.

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

The fifth album from this band from the far south of Norway. Kristiandsand is the name of their town. A town with a very lively metal and progressive rock scene. 

The band has been changing their music a lot from their previous album. Cease The Day sees the band following in the same footsteps of Enslaved and is taking the extreme progressive metal route.

Most of the vocals are in the black metal vein. The music is a mix of progressive metal and black/viking metal. Mostly viking metal. This is a recipe that has served Enslaved well. 

There is also some clean vocals here and the music is by no means an all out black/viking metal attack. The music is hard but also progressive.

The music is really good and the band has finally delivered on their promise. 

Check out this good album.
