Song Review | "Descent" - Atlas Stone
Reigning from Cincinnati, Ohio, Atlas Stone released their debut album "Arcadia" on June 21st, 2024. The band's track "Descent" from their new album starts off with clean electric guitar riffage and impactful drum build-ups before being accompanied by raw scream-singing that creates an energetic rock-driven atmosphere. Atlas Stone quickly establishes a classic 90's rock/grunge sound with a modern style that is distinct to them. Paying homage to many all-time great rock bands, Atlas Stone showcases a sound brimming with dynamic instrumentals and powerful vocals.
Clocking in at 8 and a half minutes, "Descent" blends a nostalgic rock sound with a progressive and experimental musical style, creating a unique blend of music that stands out. Atlas Stone fades into an ambient bridge with a powerful reverbed scream, transitioning into atmospheric tribal jungle noises and distant screams that work excellently to create a strong theme. "Descent" starts to build again as singing vocals and electric guitar slowly work their way back into the mix. Soon Atlas Stone transitions into dramatic syncopated rhythms and low-end guitar chugs that create a hard rock/classic metal style breakdown before bursting into a final chorus that ends the song.
Atlas Stone is an exciting blend of classic rock, grunge, and experimental rock genres that any fan of 90's music will certainly enjoy! You can stream the band's debut album "Arcadia" out on all streaming platforms now!
