doomcrew Excellent follow up to Blood of the old gods.Restless Spirit Taps into the vein of fans of Black Sabbath with riffs and a Singer That has his own voice ,and its killer 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

Colin M. This album absolutely rips from start to finish. The aggro NYHC attitude with the sometimes proggy stoner-doom sound results in heavy, groovy tracks that set the stage for the excellent vocals and lyrics. Dig it. Favorite track: Hell's Grasp.

Matthew Parness Why do you not own this? Click that button. It will be worth it. One of the best rock albums of the year from a band that defines their own sound with each and every album/song they put out.

Richard Neary This was in my Wishlist for way too long. Stunning record. For fans of High on Fire, The Sword (in their metal era), Wolftooth, and maybe a bit of Elder. Favorite track: All Furies.

about

RESTLESS SPIRIT's third album, "Afterimage", embodies the East Coast trio's aim of never wanting to sound exactly like before. Long Island deep-fried guitars meet pounding rhythms and emotionally raw vocals. Where the predecessor "Blood of the Old Gods" (2021) sometimes ushered the listener into twisted complexity, "Afterimage" delivers short, sharp shocks that hit straight home. Lyrically, "Afterimage" is driven by tragedy and personal loss. Singer and guitarist Paul Aloisio has put his heart and soul into the album. "Afterimage" might well be read as a cautionary tale. Embarking on their musical journey very early in life, RESTLESS SPIRIT's core of Aloisio and bassist Marc Morello met the summer before Kindergarten and grew up discovering music side by side. Channelling influences like BLACK SABBATH, TYPE O NEGATIVE and THE SWORD and incorporating aggressive modern metal, unabashed stoner-doom pummelling, energetic changes and stirring, earnest vocals, their band was finally christened RESTLESS SPIRIT in 2019. Their debut full-length "Lord of the New Depression" (2019) fit equally well into the stoner, doom, and sludge moulds, while on "Blood of the Old Gods", the three-piece developed a more varied, melodic approach with added complexity. On the live front, the Long Island band has undertaken several tours in support of "Blood of the Old Gods" and shared stages with the likes of CROWBAR, THE OBSESSED, and CANNIBAL CORPSE. With "Afterimage", RESTLESS SPIRIT deliver a massive punch to the gut that actually feels damn great once the initial pain subsides.

For some reason, what I previewed and the real songs was somewhat different - maybe because of the cover art? But I definitely don't regret something more spacial than expected. The recent Ocean drifting in space. frankwurst
