From: Pittsburgh, PA
Sounds like: Progressive/Alternative Metal
The opener "Silent Reckoning" is a nice opener that sets the tone for the rest of the album. It's heavy, melodic and perfect to pull in the listener with ease. "Sabotage Syndicate" is a minute long interlude that sets up the next track. "Munchhausen Syndrome" twists and turns with riffs for days and melody that's off the charts. It's ultra catchy and any fan of Melodic Metal should feel right at home. "Echoed" is another interlude that gives the listener a breather. "Tha Cheet" cranks back in with some sludge like riffs and melodies that'll get you singing along in no time. It has a bite to it along its near six minute path that has some long lasting effects. "Interval of a Deathwish" is a Rock ballad. The track is emotional, passionate and shows off the bands depth when they want to delve deep and pour out emotion. "Clarion Call" is everything that the band is all about. The guitar work is top notch, melodies that soar with ease, and a melting pot of Metal that is easily digestible. "Skywars" is an upbeat interlude that keeps things amped up throughout its short runtime. The closer and title track, "Silent Oblivion" complements the opener as it pulls everything together in a nice bow. The sky is the limit for Blue Clutch and this is album is their first step towards something really special.
Verdict:
Blue Clutch showcase their Progressive/Alternative Metal skills to the max via their new album.
