Lux Terminus

With a captivating style of keyboard-driven progressive metal that blends cinematic grandeur with a no-holds-barred approach to genre and convention, Lux Terminus has taken the progressive music world by storm since their formation in 2016. Now, with the release of their second full-length album, Cinder, keyboardist Vikram Shankar, bassist Brian Craft, and drummer Matthew Kerschner have reached stunning new creative heights. With Cinder, the band firmly establishes that technical proficiency need not be anathema to melodic and atmospheric sensitivity, and that a primarily instrumental group – without the presence of a guitar player – can rise beyond conventional confines to create something truly profound: evocative, passionate, and emotionally charged art.
