ALBUM REVIEW: Crown Lands – Fearless


 

Crown Lands claim the crown with this truly fearless album. Which crown? The crown of the New Kings of Progressive Rock.

Slow-to-mid-paced, hypnotic riffing goes from nimble and floating to heavy and crushing (and back again) all fluidly and with an altogether gorgeous production that makes this metal album akin to some exotic sweet that still delivers satisfying, crushing heaviness.
