There’s a certain kind of beauty that only reveals itself when everything around it is falling apart, and Laursetine, from So Hideous, thrives within that chaos. This is not an album for casual listening, it’s a descent into a meticulously arranged storm. Every track bleeds cinematic grandeur, yet the emotional core is raw enough to leave you scraped and exposed.

With their trademark French flair twisted by a dark, cinematic undercurrent, Maudits deliver another release that's refined yet delightfully unsettling.

Fast forward more than five years later and I believe the post-music world has finally been rewarded with the album it’s been a long-time yearning for. What is beautiful about A Single Flower is that rather than trying to surpass Departure Songs, it’s been written to compliment it. It’s that quieter, contemplative brother that speaks volumes in whispers, but who’s message is quietly devastating. For me, A Single Flower is already a masterpiece.

Can’t Even Smile Today marks Suicidal Tendencies’ explosive transformation from skate-punk misfits to full-throttle thrashers. This album is a razor-edged blend of aggression, melody, and introspection and literally a tightrope walk between fury and despair. Mike Muir’s vocals are raw and confrontational as he wrestles with alienation, betrayal, and self-doubt. His delivery swings from manic rants to almost pleading vulnerability, embodying the title’s tortured question.

Across Silent Tower, Carved Into The Sun distills grief, beauty, and raw emotion into sound, reaffirming their rare talent for turning overwhelming feeling into music that lingers, resonates, and stays unforgettable.

Reverie rewards repeat listens, each unveiling new details in its layered construction. It remains one of the standout European post-rock releases of its decade and beyond. It’s ambitious in scope, meticulous in execution, and emotionally resonant throughout

With Iridescent, Mountainscape have leveled up yet again. Iridescent is an album that balances scales and emotion, where atmosphere doesn’t soften the blows but makes them land harder. The band prove that instrumental metal just needs a vision, and in that respect, they’ve delivered it in spades

This two-track EP unfolds like a dialogue of opposing forces, each piece a vast, immersive soundscape that rises and shifts with the weight of nature’s ferocious elements. TRNA embraces contrast in its purest form, letting sound move between turbulence and serenity until both emotions blur into something transcendent.

I’m delighted to see Greek post rockers we.own.the.sky back in the game with a brand-new single. With Eclipse, the guys mark their return with a carefully sculpted piece of post-rock that feels both fresh and intense, and massively immersive!

Overhead, The Albatross have created a record that is both deeply personal and universally resonant. I leave You this is a reminder that music can be more than just background noise, it can be a memory, a tribute, and ultimately a way of healing

Burdened with Glorious Purpose is a bold and refreshing statement from a band that continues to grow organically into its own skin. Rather than cycling through predictable crescendos and post-rock cliches, these six tracks read as chapters in a beautifully written novel

Aoria’s debut is an overlooked masterpiece. It’s powerful, passionate, and utterly immersive for fans of emotionally driven, slow-burning soundscapes. However, It’s a shame that the journey ended here

Avoid the Light by Long Distance Calling is a brooding, immersive instrumental album that weaves post-rock, post-metal and even progressive metal into a darkly cinematic experience

It may not be a classic yet!, but Embers is yet another beautifully crafted album, that weighs heavy with emotion and heartwarming reflection. Poignant in its writing, and blissful in its delivery, GIAA mark another one of life's inevitable destinations with a warmth and a sincerity that makes it a celebration of all that has gone before, and of all that will be remembered
