Misery Signals - Absent Light (2013)

(Originally posted on Rest Assured Zine)

Misery Signals have been a little quiet for the past few years. After not having put out an album for around five years, Absent Light is the result of nearly two years of writing/rehearsals. There is no denying that a lot of effort has been put into writing this record. The intricate guitar/drum work, time signature and tempo changes can be a little hard to keep up with but 'djent' fans will no doubt love the record. Songs to look out for would be 'Shadows and Depth', 'Luminary' and 'Departure', they just about sum up the technicality and ferocity of the album. Misery Signals fans won’t be disappointed with Absent Light and with them signing recently to UNFD I’m sure we'll be seeing them in Australia soon. 

Although writing all that for Rest Assured I highly disliked this record. The time signature changes and generic breakdowns/sections at every corner had me yawning. Fans of new Architects, Northlane and 'djent' people will like this though. 

4.5/10
