In The Woods - Diversum (2022)

The sixth album from this band from Norway.

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

A guest added keyboards.

Their five first albums had been very different from each other. They are like five different planets. 

Their 2018 album Cease The Day got a good review here. I like that Enslaved inspired album. And I thought the band would settle on that sound, taking into consideration this being the core of their past too.

I was proven wrong when Diversum hit my speakers and earbuds.

The band has taken black metal, added a lot of Anathema like psych rock and then added a lot of progressive rock too.

The vocals is everywhere from black, death, grunge, djent and muscular clear vocals.

The music is melodic and muscular. It is also progressive.

This album is by far their best album so far and indeed a very good album.

Check it out.
