Wilderun – Epigone
Century Media Records
8,5/10,0
Brief:
With Epigone, Boston-bred aural imaginauts WILDERUN take a deeper and darker step beyond their expansive, prog-leaning metal scores that so skillfully came together on 2019’s Veil of Imagination. The result is a record that is at once grandiose, complex, sophisticated and unexpectedly human. Epigone is nothing short of a journey into expression and ambition. It has all the earmarks that have made WILDERUN a revelation unto themselves.

Comments:
Wilderun are one of the most ‘radiant’ stars of modern progressive metal. It may be that the band hasn’t yet achieved progressive metal perfection, but this record comes as close as possible to that achievement.
