Pillars - CAVUM (2019) EN

Pillars is another band I had a pleasure to listen to during the Dunk!festival in Belgium. This time though, there was no doubts, their new album CAVUM is the number one candidate to be praised THE post-rock album 2019.

Hailing from Indiana, band in the most perfect way combined the very heavy, soul-crushing guitars with massive compositions and phenomenal atmosphere. Just like they previously did on their debut album Of Salt and Sea, on their second one just had to master it. After an introduction of some sort in Escape, the Americans give their best from the very first sounds of the brilliant Dissolution combining in this track the loud and the airy, two of the most important features of the genre.

The album has its more peaceful fragment in Dying Light, but it soon gets back to the crazy pace in somewhat western-like Black Prayer with an impressive finish. The whole thing is crowned with Coda, a moody piano ballad. It's worth to add that the artists are also engaged into promotion of post-rock organizing Post., the biggest festival of the genre in United States.
