Mars Red Sky - Dawn Of The Dusk (CD)

Mirror effects, reversals, double-dealing... This fifth studio effort from French heavy psychedelic cornerstones Mars Red Sky is a genuine conceptual piece of work skillfully designed to take the listener on a journey through a shifting, unpredictable and even utterly disconcerting sonic universe. The trio explore progressive and post-metal territories with boundless inspiration. Their original signature of jagged vocals and thundering rhythm is spiced up by acoustic elements, drones and various mid-kraut rock and mid-gothic effects. The atmospheres and settings are finely crafted and linked by Julien Pras's voice, who brings a delicious pop languor. The eight-track record is packed with the band's overflowing inspiration that have made their reputation in France and around the World over the last 10 years.
