Imbue is The Early November’s newest album since 2012′s In Currents. With a release date of May 12th, Imbue is said to be frontman Ace Ender’s favourite release. The album as a whole was written and recorded in a very erratic way. The story of Imbue shows a band who wants to put aside their fresh reunion to create music with as much energy as they had when they first appeared on the scene. Every song is said to have its own personality, which adds a special feel to the record as a whole.
The entirety of Imbue shows the band’s talents to the best of their abilities. Songs such as “Narrow Mouth” and “Magnolia” will get you up and rocking out, especially throughout their choruses, while other tracks like “Digital Age” and “The Negatives” take the beat to a much slower, serenade-like tempo. Imbue as a whole is an album to rock out to in your car, to listen to while you contemplate life or to reconnect old flames.

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”).
