Linkin Park On 'From Zero' & Their Return To Australia: 'We're More Assured That This Is What We Want To Be Doing'

Album Review: Majora - Aphotic

StarStarStarStar

"This four-piece creates thoroughly kaleidoscopic instrumental post-rock that ebbs and flows like a king tide on a beautiful deserted tropical beach."

More Majora Majora

Australia continues to provide a veritable feast of progressive, experimental and instrumental music, and Newcastle's Majora only adds further lustre to that illustrious canon with their EP Aphotic.

Drawing strong cues from their fellow New South Welshmen sleepmakeswaves, this four-piece creates thoroughly kaleidoscopic instrumental post-rock that ebbs and flows like a king tide on a beautiful deserted tropical beach. This is vocal-free music you can truly immerse yourself in, become lost in. It is powerful and it is beautiful, switching from crunching heaviness to the wistful ambience in a heartbeat, and drawing the mesmerised listener along with it.

Aphotic is a wonder.
