City Of Trees - Introspection (2010)

7.9

/Alternative rock, Gothic rock, Math rock, Pomp rock, Progressive rock/

Comment: This is a quartet from Big Apple mixing together potently stomping hard cored alternative rock and some elements of gothic rock, math rock and progressive rock. All in all, it is excellently produced and played up into an obviously pop-influenced, even bombastic whole where Dan Cerney`s vocal reaches up toward its highest chords being quite playful at times. And the coverprint of the issue is a grandeur one.
