Self released – 2019

Rock, Prog, Psych

Rated:

From the opening power chord bellows of "Howlin'", it's apparent that this is not your usual Stoner fare: Indeed, there is no Iommi worship on display here, this London-based trio named TrYangle nail their colours firmly to the Alt/Prog mast, weaving intricate guitar patterns, off-kilter time signatures and booming, anthemic basslines throughout. From the slide-delay guitar work on 'Howlin', through the beefy Cog undertones of 'Always Shining', to the Juno-esque Power Emo of 'I.e.' the virtuosity and sense of craft shines through... Admittedly, Guitarist/Singer Gonçalo da Silva Nova wears his influences on his sleeve, treading similar sonic areas to Steven Wilson or Alex Lifeson but the comparisons are tempered by his own inventive style. The expansive, 'Big Sky' production allows the instrumentation to breathe, giving more room to concentrate on individual performances without distraction from the songs. Once they can firmly establish their own unique sound I suspect they will be huge. "Wolf" is a very good Progressive Psychedelic album that merits repeat spins... And TrYangle are a band with huge potential.
