about

THE 2015 PROG-METAL ALBUM FROM THE UK's GODSTICKS

"Emergence is a rare thing – an album of technically astounding prog-metal replete with hooks and melodies" Total Guitar

In the build-up to the announcement of their fifth studio album, and recent headline performances in London, Manchester, Newcastle, Glasgow and hometown Cardiff, Godsticks' riff-heavy third studio album Emergence is released on mid-price CD via Kscope.

Known for their technical ability, Godsticks meld metal, prog-rock, jazz and nu-metal into a musically and thematically cohesive album. And as their sound has gradually hardened since 2008, Charles’ vocals have preserved their distinct, relaxed style that remains a defining quality for the band. Emergence features a strong selection of powerful live-favourites which were played during their extensive 2017 European tour as support for The Pineapple Thief, and has been placed in favourable comparison by PROG magazine to Queensrÿche’s Operation: Mindcrime, Dream Theater’s Scenes From a Memory, Tool’s Lateralus and Opeth’s Blackwater Park.

Press for Emergence:

"A truly captivating album far ahead of some of the more predictable prog-metal releases" PROG

"Dark and muscular prog heaviness from one of the UK's most idiosyncratic rock bands" Metal Hammer

"A mighty tour de force of tip-top riffery" Guitarist

A love/hate kind of production. I tried to like several times this massive, effect overloaded arena rock production. But the wall of sound prevents me to follow the core (soul) of the music...so a very personal "less is more" impression remains. Nonetheless Not a bad record at all... rs1972

The flac version of this sounds great in my truck... not a crunch, clip or boom to be heard. That, in itself, gets this major points. This is a lovely combination of early Floyd, U2 and a few San Francisco bands from the '60s with a heavy dose of Helmet tossed in. It's definitely best of breed when it comes to modern psych stuff. Even without a Hammond B3, it gets an easy A+... rick-taylor

It's only four tracks, yes, but it's four tracks of great cosmic psychedelia. Here's my full review - https://www.7thlevelmusic.com/?p=12710 Nik Havert
