Style: dissonant black metal
Primary Emotions/Themes: Crazy music with crazier vocals
Thoughts: Spire is a band that I have a bit of a connection with. Their vocalist is someone I conversed with on a semi regular basis for several years, and in doing so I have a biased opinion of their music.
Entropy is exactly the correct title for this album. The music goes from being structured and slowly begins to fall apart at the seams as dissonance creeps its way in. Melody gives way to chaos, clean vocals give way to a blabbering mad man, order gives way to entropy. This is the law of nature and the law of Spire.
There is a lot more that should be said about this album, but I will let those curious to be left to their own devices. This is an album of discovery, an album where the natural order comes into play. Play it to take part in natures glorious return to nothingness.
