Description/Reviews:
Even though they are not a math band, there is a huge amount of math rock to the way they play their prog metal. The intricacy of their playing, and more so, the way it interlocks, is simply entrancing. So, while I guess the band will still be bogged down with the prog metal tag, there is so much more to their sound. The band have given “fusion” as one of their Bandcamp tags, and it is entirely appropriate, for Involute’s sound is a fusion of prog metal, math rock, and jazz. At times, some of the more ambient passages even give a post-rock feel to the music. And, indeed, even if the band could never really be described as post-rock, they do seem to have composed their music in a post-rock manner – concerned more for shape over form, and texture over structure. Sure there are all the components of prog metal you might expect to hear, but they have been assembled in unexpected ways.
