Very unfortunate album title for the new Haken album, given the circumstances.

Haken have became a household name in progressive metal ever since their breakout album The Mountain, and Affinity proved their willingness to grow beyond being Dream Theater copycats. Where to now?

My, my, my! Where to begin? Let's start with the obvious. Haken are a progressive metal band from the UK who aren't afraid to try new things as their previous works have shown. The Mountain was their breakthrough album and gathered considerable praise, and for good reason. Their newest opus, Affinity, is an interesting concept as it brings listeners back to the 1980s with throwback samples, sounds, melodies, even the artwork and packaging, marketing materials were all designed with that decade in mind. You know, when chatting involved a corded phone and music was recorded on tape.
