Skydancer is the latest album from Australian metalcore quartet, In Hearts Wake. The surprise second record of an ambitious two-part release that began with last year’s Earthwalker, Skydancer features a strong and hard-hitting sound that shows In Hearts Wake as one of Australia’s strongest heavy acts.
Skydancer carries on with the same concept-driven material that Earthwalker brought to the table, but does so in a way that’s darker and a lot more pressing. With anthemic lyrics and aggressive vocals, the album manages to bring a heavy sound (”Badlands”) while only occasionally delving into the generic (”Cottonmouth”).
