Spirit Adrift - "Battle High" (video)
Διπλό δισκογραφικό "χτύπημα" για τους Spirit Adrift μέσα στο 2020. Προ διμήνου κυκλοφόρησε το "Angel & Abyss Redux EP", το οποίο περιείχε ένα δικό τους τραγούδι και δύο διασκευές (σε Jimi Hendrix Experience και Roky Erickson & The Aliens) και πορ ημερών το full length album "Enlightened in Eternity". Στην μπάντα έχουν (απο)μείνει ο (κιθαρίστας - τραγουδιστής) Nate Garrett και ο drummer Marcus Bryant...
Δελτίο τύπου: «Spirit Adrift refuses to slow down. With ‘Enlightened In Eternity’, Nathan Garrett, alongside drummer Marcus Bryant, has created yet another monument to the timelessness of heavy metal.
And while ‘Enlightened…’ builds on the sizable foundation established by previous albums, it also sets itself apart in formidable new ways, widening the scope of what Spirit Adrift can be. What Spirit Adrift have mastered, where others have failed, is the ability to invoke the power of metal’s past, whether it be the 70s, 80s or even the 90s as we hear on ‘Enlightened…’, without ever feeling throwback or ’retro’.
Spirit Adrift urgently represent the sonic and emotional zeitgeist of 2020. “Enlightened In Eternity” carries the same enormous magnitude of the most significant metal records of every era, but Nathan Garrett has carved out his own place among the greatest of songwriters, by crafting uniquely classic and instantly recognizable songs.
Vocally, Garrett again showcases an obvious evolution of his already high-level ability with more soaring soul and snarling venom injected into his classic metal form. The gorgeous guitar leads, melodies, harmonies and unforgettably heavy riffs benefit from a huge, timeless production quality.
Drummer Marcus Bryant has elevated his playing to new levels of intensity and tasteful subtlety. And as always, the tracks remain imprinted on the mind long after the album has finished. Whether it’s the ever-expanding catalog of incredible albums and songs or the searing live performances, the dominance of Spirit Adrift upon the current Heavy Metal landscape is now undeniable. And while ‘Enlightened In Eternity’ already marks the band’s fourth album, Spirit Adrift have only just begun.»
