Animals As Leaders Profile
Opening track, Kaskade is all you need to prepare for what prog metallers Animals As Leaders have in store for us on their third album. Whether you're new to the genre-bending, time-transfiguring three-piece or not, those hooky motifs sans lyrics cast some magical spell in The Joy Of Motion's opener, only to deepen in Lippincott, when those dizzying guitars go bouncing into the air. It's almost frustrating in a way, that desire to be transported but being transfixed by every pattern, new sound or wayward chug. It's just unavoidable.
