Right under our noses there is a post-metal revolution happening in the eastern European countries. It seems Greece, Russia, Ukraine and Poland have joined the party late and fallen in love with this genre, because now, more than ever, most of my highly rated post-metal albums have come from those places. Adding to this trend are Poland's Moanaa and their debut LP Descent. Using a "typical" post-metal format, Descent isn't musically ground breaking but a laudable example of what fans of this scene should want and expect. Read more ›› |

Umm, this is like, maybe, the best post metal album this year. My favorite song is "Lit" and the others are great.

A damn strong and mature stuff. It's hard to believe that this is debut. It's no coincidence that Moanaa joined to the November Blindead & Moaft polish tour, superb team.

Yeah, this is excellent. "Lit" is indeed splendid. Actually, I've been listening to some very good post as of late. I'd been out of the groove for a while.

Written by basquetal on 16.12.2014 at 16:48 It is soooo close. They will be 1-2 for sure with Pet Slimmers Of The Year probably 3rd. I gotta update my list/rank my stuff pretty soon.

I didn't quite appreciate on first listen how great this was, but I'm glad I decided to purchase a DL anyway - gave it another listen last night and wow, this really is up there with When Icarus Falls for 2014's best post- album.

Lost in the Noise is an unbelievable song, manages to pull off the combination of intensity and euphoria in the same way that the midsection of Ghost Trail does
