I recently realized that pretty much all the metal I’ve been
listening to is either rooted in death metal, grindcore, and/or hardcore, which
I absolutely love, but I’ve been yearning for metal that you can get lost in
like post-rock and psychedelic influenced music. That’s why I’ve delved into the post-metal,
progressive and sludge scenes (which often overlap) finding some absolutely
beautiful bands new and older bands I’ve forgotten about. Minsk
is pretty much exactly what I’ve been looking for. A lot of great elements can be found in their
songs; the use of tribal percussion which is always a draw for me, hazy, psychedelic riffs that have you drift
through the songs, and sludgetastic heaviness breaking in leaving you pretty
damn fulfilled music wise. In other terms, its like Tool and Neurosis banged
under the mescaline sun.
