Description/Reviews:
The listener is delicately introduced to Eschaton via the 'Intro' - a small snippet of swells and distorted loops that build up rapidly before cutting out to reveal 'Incandensa'. A distinct contrast exerts itself immediately. The etheral guitar swells present in the 'Intro' (swells of the sort that instantly make me think postrock) clear to reveal a warm, funky bass line, that joyfully frolics up and down. 'Incandensa' is full of surprises. There are relapses into half time, changes in tempo and time signatures, rimshots and tapping, as well as massive contrasts in dynamics, textures and tones. Styles seem to fuse, and the instrumentation becomes vibrant. Towards the end of the song, there is even a vocal sample of a rather philosophical American woman talking about beauty and whatnot - very atmospheric and uplifting. It is evident from the off that these boys are a talented bunch who want to push the blurry barriers that govern genres like postrock.Read the full review by Michael Nash at echoesanddust.com
