11 Aug
Summary
- High on Fire released "Blessed Black Wings" with producer Steve Albini.
- Albini's production enhances High on Fire's sharp, agile sound.
- The album features a laser-cut attack and calcified low end.
High on Fire's new album, "Blessed Black Wings," produced by Steve Albini, has been released and is drawing attention for its refined sound. While Albini's production style is known for its distinct characteristics, it has been discreetly applied here to enhance the band's already powerful attack.
The result is an album that calcifies High on Fire's laser-cut approach, offering a sharper and more agile sound. Tracks like "Devilution" and "The Face of Oblivion" demonstrate the band's potent energy, amplified by Albini's signature low-end treatments.
Other notable tracks include "To Cross the Bridge," an epic featuring acoustic and electric guitar interplay, and "Anointing of Seer," with its dynamic riffs. The album showcases the band's independent power, delivering nearly an hour of intense performance that avoids overly complex structures.
