REVIEW

3rd album from Los Angeles–based post-metal / doomgaze band Iress.

The band’s sound has evolved significantly since their previous release "Flaw", retaining its signature heaviness while bringing greater clarity to the delicate passages. Vocalist Michelle Malley, hailed as the "Adele of Doom" shines brighter than ever, standing shoulder to shoulder with renowned dark vocalists like Chelsea Wolfe and Heike Langhans.

Highlights include the ethereal yet heavy contrast of #1 "Falling", the soul-shaking wail of #3 "Mercy", #6 "In Reverse", and the doom-laden headbanger #8 "Knell Mera". This is arguably their finest work to date and an essential listen for any doomgaze aficionado.
