Liongeist - Liongeist (2023)

Although they play together for over a decade now, the Norwegian band of Liongeist hadn't had an LP released until this year they showed the self-titled album. 

The band is said to originate from the post-hardcore scene, but there's very little that reminds about it now. The album is filled with well-written post-rock music that is said to include everything from "brooding ambiance, twinkling guitars" to " heavy walls of sound and soaring melodies". And this is all true: I'd say there's too much of said twinkling guitars to my taste, but when the band decide to loose the brakes and gets into the super noisy mode (like in Third Molar), there's little to be said from the perspective of the sonically overwhelmed listener. And so the, let's say, debut of the experienced band turned out to be very... promising.
