Year of No Light- Nord



Year of No Light are a post-metal band from where else? France. These guys definitely wear their influences on their sleeves, as it were. When you first listen to it you'll be convinced it's Isis (albeit with some Neurosis and a touch of converge thrown in. a couple nods to Jesu perhaps) In this case, that is definitely a good thing. This album full of incredible builds, super heavy dirge riffs, and impassioned vocal workouts blended flawlessly with neurosis like ambience, and soaring guitar melodies. And all of it done at such a high level of skill that "Nord" Clearly stands toe-to-toe with the best work it's predecessors have done. A new album is long overdue
