Bismut – Schwerpunkt

Bismut – Schwerpunkt

Lay Bare Recordings – 2018

Rock, Instrumental, Stoner, Metal, Atmospheric, Prog

Rated: ****

This one has also been out since December 2018. Which means we’re late to the party once again. But what a party it is! Adventurous, dangerous and delicious! But that’s only logical when the nucleus of the band is made up out of members of bands like Stonerfront Nijmegen, Bandito and Geiser. We’re talking about three-piece outfit Bismut and their first release Schwerpunkt. A powerful and wild cinematic adventure through the heavy universe. Four psychedelic progressive metal tracks that infuse so many spacey, groovy and riffy elements you might mistake it for pure crystal metal art. It isn’t fragile though! And the psychedelic, space and atmospheric elements always come second to the heavy rock that is ever prevalent. Progressive in nature their metal soundscapes take you on a journey; something you have to prepare for and something you will need your full attention for. Cause it’s raw, monstrous and massive with loads of gravitas and hypnotic energy. Yes, we piled on the accolades once again. But, Bismut is simply put that good!
