Album DescriptionAvailable in:
"Mesmer" is the fourth studio album from Australian metalcore band Northlane. It was released on 24 March 2017 through UNFD. It follows the group's slight departure from their metalcore roots and towards a more alternative and experimental sound, as established on their previous release, Node.
User Album Review
There's an almost mid 2000's Post Hardcore vibe at times on this record. It's a little strange to hear in 2017, but at the same time provides a sense of nostalgia. If you were into bands like Saosin or Emarosa back in the day, there's definitely something for you here.
Overall, if you're a Northlane, Metalcore or Post Hardcore fan, this record is worth a listen. Whilst it's no Singularity, it's interesting to hear how Northlane have evolved since that record. My personal favourite tracks are Heartmachine, Solar, Render, and the album's atmospheric closer, Paragon, which serves as a tribute to late Architects guitarist Tom Searle, who passed away last August after a long battle with cancer. Northlane are as strong as ever, and the surprise release of this record is a testament to their endurance, integrity and passion for their work. Bravo, Northlane, bravo. --- sputnikmusic.com
