In2Elements - Cycles (2020) EN

In2Element is a solo project by Adam Szopa, that grew up to a trio when welcomed Krzysztof Rutka (known from the Kraków's Transmission Zero) and Michał Szendzielorz (Gallileous) aboard. With this line-up, the artists released recently an album called Cycles.

I think there's still a lot of the solo post-rock vibes left in the band's music. First of all, the compositions are often built on the sound of the very clearly-heard, pugnacious lead guitar. Here this is legitimately good and the insect-inspired leit-motif in Circadian Rhythm (I know it's an astronomical term, but doesn't it sound like a cicada rhythm?) is perfectly engaging.

And then there are also the clear progressive and metal influences (Vicious Circle!) and some intriguing solutions. Solid, very guitar- and riff-oriented album that is more about the hit than generating a mood atmosphere.

Cycles costs 5 EUR (20 PLN).
