A sonic onslaught, this debut is a winding, complex monster of metallic Prog and Mathy Metal. The incredible accuracy in pulling of daredevil time signatures is all under-pinned by melody and catchy hooks. Take,’ Swagger’, like a Djent band stuck in the studio and vying for control with a particularly raucous version of Lightning Bolt – the precision is jaw-dropping. Elsewhere, I get hints of ‘Power to Believe’ era King Crimson. Fitting, as Serious Beak is a true 21st century schizoid band.

More cathartic, atmospheric heaviness from the German doom metallers, balancing no-nonsense hooks with proggy flourishes.
