The story of Corelia is an absolute tragedy.
After an unbelievable start with this extraordinary EP. Replete with gorgeous Prog Metal….yes, in the vein of Protest the Hero, Periphery, The Human Abstract etc. but absolutely with their own unique voice. They promise a double album for their 1st official LP. Get something like 2/3rds of the way and then tragedy strikes in the form of mental illness.
After a gofundme debacle where money was not returned to its investors it’s all over.
This EP however cannot be taken back and it is incredible. An outstanding addition to the Modern Prog Metal genre. Quit versatile vocals at times reaching incredible heights, tight and heavy playing on guitar that weaves riffing and arpeggios until the shimmering cleans are picked through. Same goes for the drums consistently matching the energy of the guitars.
The thing that makes the story so sad is the fact that this EP is practically an immaculate display of musical artistry in its chosen genre.
