Agalloch - Ashes Against The Grain (Review by PowerWyrm)

PowerWyrm is very familiar with this album.
Excellent Prog Post Metal!
I don't really know what to think of this album... the band continues on the same post metal sound, this time less bleak and repetitive than on The Mantle, and the music is really good here... but unfortunately the vocals are horrible. There are less clean vocals, and when the singer uses harsh vocals (that is on every track except the three instrumentals), it's unfortunately some really ugly gurgling voice...
