Might check this out latter

A busy band this one, four releases in two years, and likely to have at least a few more by the end of this year. There's certainly potential with this band but nothing they've released so far has really stuck with me, I'll be checking this one out though for sure.

Edit: There's some really cool moments, I'd say this is his most experimental and intriguing release yet, which is definitely saying something, but it's not an easy to digest album just like his previous three records. This band is like modern art, it's insanely abstract and obscure, something in which only the artist himself can truly understand.

I think this is their best release. Pretty avant-garde, and engaging from start to finish.

Wanna put it in my 2024 list but can't link it properly. Weird

Nice, it works, thanks

Really sucks that the amount of releases makes me not wanna give each release that much attention, because this one is insanely good

I really don't get the hype with this band. I tried, I really did.

As a Greek I should be even intrigued by the greek titles FFS, but still no.

I gotta say that even with number of albums this guy releases they all sound unique and interesting. His style isn’t usually to my taste but I found this one to be really impressive. Nice use of sax without being overpowering, great riffs, and a bit of everything here. Easily my favorite of his so far and now I’m interested in where he goes from here.

J. L. said that this album aims to achieve the spiritual state of "theía manía" proposed by Plato in Phaedrus through music.
However, in order to make this one, he hasn't touched his studies in the past month, and his supervisor has urged him many times to revise his paper He said, "I've been living like a professional music producer this month, which has been particularly interesting."
One interesting aspect of this language is that it combines the ancient Greek word "hexameter chanting" with "metal" in the form of a spoon word. But J L thinks his voice is too unpleasant, and the problematic frequency range in the middle and low frequencies is bothering him and he can't handle it well. "When you feel that the sound below 4k is in the problem frequency range, then there's no need to continue," he said.
It is worth mentioning that J L. He believes that his three works from 2023 are now considered pure trash, but of course, he believes that exploring the aspect of thrust is still meaningful, and he is still interested in continuing to play with the recipe for disso thrust
He said, "Ah, it's a bit heartless to say that... but the biggest gain these three records have brought me is the improvement of my arrangement and production abilities, especially the latter. I have stepped into too many pitfalls in terms of production. But when it comes to aesthetic improvement... it really has nothing to do with these three records, not even with metal. In fact, I haven't heard of metal in 23 years."
（From J L. Weibo year-end summary）

Haven't really liked any of this band's recent albums, but the release schedule is admirable.

Progressive dissonant black/death/thrash
absolutely love this dude's stuff, every single one of them
