By no means a band concerned with repeating themselves, WAKE has advanced with each launch. 2020′s Devouring Spoil made this clearer than ever, hammering the purpose residence with the Confluence EP in the identical yr. Thought Type Descent is their most dynamic, various and emotional launch thus far. “I’d describe the report as a spot to rethink what ‘excessive’ means. The phrases ‘brutal’, ‘crushing’, ‘devastating’ are overused adjectives for excessive music. We needed to drive individuals to confront the concept ‘brutal’ or ‘excessive’ concepts aren’t simply blastbeats or angular tritones, or, extra importantly, ‘brutal’ components alongside pointedly passive components can create their very own expertise that may channel each and neither.” The result’s eight nuanced tracks that run the gamut from relentlessly heavy to exquisitely lovely – typically concurrently – and immediately seize maintain of the listener, demanding their full consideration. Nevertheless, on the identical time, they’re lushly textured and densely layered, and provide extra with each subsequent publicity, unfurling to indicate hidden depths, and taking WAKE to an entire new stage.
To trace the album, the band as soon as once more collaborated with Dave Otero (Allegaeon, Cattle Decapitation) at Flatline Audio in Denver, CO. “Dave is somebody who does one thing we love – supersedes what individuals consider him. Certain, he recorded many profitable loss of life metallic albums, however his potential to grasp pop music and its composition, his information of music idea and his willingness to get proper into the motion of a track and its chord progressions, not simply the riffs, are issues that go manner past ‘loss of life metallic’. He could make laborious proper turns into wildly completely different sonic territory with out batting an eyelash, and he at all times has an concept throughout the deviation, too. He contributed loads to this report.” Having ready exhaustively upfront, as soon as within the studio the band have been in a position to attempt new issues, play with concepts and rearrange songs, having the time to go down the proverbial rabbit gap and see the place it took them. Kevin Hufnagel of Gorguts and Vaura additionally makes an look, enjoying guitar on “Pareidolia” and “Observer To Grasp“, the latter observe some of the melodic on the report.
