Labirinto - Divino Afflante Spiritu (2019) EN


The Brazilians from Labirinto are proud to be releasing their music from 13 years and having no major competition in South America. While I'm not entirely in agreement with the latter, the fact is that their new album, Divino Afflante Spiritu, shows tons of heavy and great guitar quality.

For the band centered around the married couple of guitarist Eric Cruksen and drummer Muriel Curi, it's only the third long play but they do have experience drawn from EPs and splits (with THISQUIETARMY amongst others). It's visible as the new album has zero moments of unnecessary sounds. Heavy, metal guitars are combined with sporadic growl and structured into very much post-rock-like compositions. Those louder ones, such as Eleh Ha Devarim, emit sound aggression that within its loudness incorporates sad, melancholic notes though.

On the other hand, Labirinto's tracks often aim into epic grandeur. An example here would be Demiurge combing very metal guitars with the atmosphere of self-aware post-rock. The latter is the best visible in the album's best, title and closing the whole LP Divino Afflante Spiritu. In fact, the whole album balances on this difficult to define and extremely intriguing border of post-rock and post-metal.

Divino Afflante Spiritu costs 7.99 EUR.
