Karnivool's In Verses is finally here (and it rules) | ALBUM REVIEW

In this review, I dive into In Verses, the long-awaited fourth album from Australian progressive metal band Karnivool. After a 13-year gap since Asymmetry, the band returns with massive riffs, sharp production, emotional songwriting, and a blend of Sound Awake-style heaviness and cinematic atmosphere. I break down the album’s strengths, the challenging recording process, standout tracks like “Aozora,” “Ghost,” and “Opal,” and why this prog rock comeback is worth the wait. If you’re a fan of prog metal, alternative rock, Karnivool, similar bands like Tool, or modern heavy music, this review covers everything you need to know about In Verses.
