The Fierce And The Dead - Regional Theatre - Progressive Voyages Review

This is the fidth studio album from the Northampton based band, Although there have been a plethora of live albums this new albums comes three years after Bassist KEVIN feasey stepped up yo perform v9cals on 2023's News From The InvIvisible World, He reprise that role again for this album and his vocals bring a fresh life to the music once again.

The Fierce And The Dead are really pushing forward on this album, innthat it has play written by the band that accompanies the album, it is a very imaginative set up,

The Album has 10 tracks and last for about 39 minutes in all, The soung is familiar for those who know the band Howevercthe addition of vocals changes the dynamics somehow, Almost as if this new stage has been on the horizon for a while but is only just beginning to makes its presence known.

The albumn commences with Loungeside which has a very meaty opening salvo of riffery and a subtle yet compelling bass line, the track is full of tension as if it is caged awaiting release, which happens at the 1.55 mark when it break free, Really like how this sounds its almost thrash metal like it is powerfully delivered with intensity although melody is never far away,
