Description
Silicon Valley's tech industry is known for its world-leading innovation, precision engineering and sleek, streamlined design aesthetic. Similarly, San Jose tech metal quintet Enigma are known for their boundary-pushing brutality, rigorous riffs and aerodynamic, aural assaults. The band's excellent new LP, Stars Misaligned, features five blistering tracks-- replete with roiling guitar leads, breakneck double bass beats, respites of melodic contemplation and explosions of awe-inspiring technical spasticity. Recorded by metal pro Zack Ohren (Fallujah, All Shall Perish), Stars Misaligned is as slick as any Apple product and as face-melting as a malfunctioning Samsung Galaxy Note 7.
