StarGazer- A Great Work of Ages (2010)

Do you like the IDEA of progressive death metal but hate the fact that it usually entails incredibly cheesy guitar guitar solos, lame clean vocals, synth and other silly bullshit? Well, then Australia's StarGazer might just be the band for you. Featuring ex-members of Portal and a current member of Mournful Congregation, StarGazer play progressive death metal that harkens back to the days when "death metal" was the operative term in progressive death metal.Think Atheist, later era Death and (lame clean vocal having) Cynic with a touch of blackness and you should have a pretty good idea of what's in store for you. Not unnecessarily wanky or throw-as-many-riffs-together-as-possible-without-transitions sounding, which is a fucking achievement for a progressive death metal record these days. Highly recommended.
