The Gorge

St. Louis progressive metal band, THE GORGE, tour in support of the release of their latest album, Mechanical Fiction. With their third full-length album, THE GORGE take you on a giant voyage of discovery from which an incredible amount of joy can be experienced. Besides being wizards at their instruments, the quartet from St. Louis also prove to be incredible composers who know when to shine and when to take a step back, which is a rare feat in progressive music these days. The fnal track «Wraith» offers a sublime moment in which the band’s compositional skill and emotional lyrics come together to ofer one last opportunity for respite and consideration. Among the giant synthesizers, slow syncopated rifng and dying screams we are all laid to rest with our faces towards the sunset. Having come to the end of a life’s journey, THE GORGE ofer us the thing that we have all longed for: release from the bonds of our Mechanical Fiction.
