Ohpen Ahrms - Lying Beside You (2024)

The debut album from this band from USA.

The band was a quartet with a lineup of drums, percussion, guitars, organ, synths and vocals.

Three guests added bass, flute, vocals and saxophones.

The album was released some weeks ago through Bandcamp. 

The music here is hard rock with a industrial, grungy punk inspired post-metal sound. 

The sound is distorted and the basis for some rather basic hard rock songs. The punk influences comes thick and fast.

The vocals are decent enough. The sound is here by intent and it gives the band it's own identity. 

The music is decent enough but I am the first one to admit that the music is not something a proghead would enjoy. It has too much punk influences for that.

This is a decent enough album and worth checking out.
