The progressive death pop band THE GREAT DISCORD are back with their sophomore album, entitled 'THE RABBIT HOLE'. The band features notable musicians who have worked with or are working with bands like GHOST, MCC (Magna Carta Cartel), TID, PG. LOST, DEAD SOUL, VANHELGD and many others. Returning from tours with GHOST, KVELERTAK, KATATONIA and GHOST BATH, they have wowed reviewers and concertgoers across Europe with their theatrically enticing and energetic performances. Completely self produced and mixed/mastered by Aksel Holmgren (Drums), the band shows they are a force to be reckoned in the continued development of hard rock and metal. The album showcases an immense development from their debut album 'DUENDE' (Metal Blade Records, 2015), making the band more accessible yet still retaining their unique sound, completed with the impeccable vocal performance of front person Fia Kempe. Thematically the album represents an alternate twist on the famous story of Alice tumbling down the rabbit hole by Lewis Carrol. It also introduces Fia's new on-stage persona, named IRE. A sinister and dangerous being that acts as a guide throughout the songs. The album also contains a guest solo from MARK HOLCOMB of PERIPHERY on the track OMEN.

Such a massive improvement over their first album (which was still *good*, btw) - chorus lines drowning in depth and the guitar riffs are as cruncy as ever. They've really outdone themselves with this one. My only complaint is that the album could have included a few more tracks, but what we have here is pure quality over quantity. "Noire" and "Cadence" are standouts and belong in any metalhead's library. Pick this up. Now.
F**N
Amazing!
Amazing work be a band that deserves to get huge.
