Three years ago, I reviewed Nija by Orbit Culture and said that the record showed “hints of a potentially great record to come, rather than being a great record in and of itself”. Frustratingly, three years on and the band are pretty much in the exact same position with Descent. Read more ›› |

I like how they based the entire second track over those bombastic brass blasts every two bars.

Written by Vellichor on 23.08.2023 at 18:15 I had that with this album and its predecessor - when they're on form, they can do some great songs (From The Inside was my favourite here), but it feels like there's a duffer right around the corner to temper my enthusiasm. I'm also not keen on the clean vocal style they use, which I feel holds them back a bit

Not as catchy as their previous stuff, which is actually my "click" for liking this band. Bytheway, does anyone else find it waaaaaay overproduced?

The big "it" factor here is Niklas Karlsson who produced the album and did the mixing and mastering. This albums sounds monumental and I love it. Sure, the songwrtiting leaves a little more to wish for but when it sounds like this, I don't care.
