ROPES INSIDE A HOLE bring superb pedigree and a thorough understanding of everything surrounding the post-metal genre.

Ropes inside a Hole have not yet established the tone and feel of the music they want to give us, and as a result, even for fans of the genre, A Man and His Nature fails.
Wow guys, this sure is post-metal. Gee wiz. It does it fact, do the atmospheric thing that the genre does. In fact, it even post-rocks. Can you believe it? Get this: the songs are long too. I know. This really is an album that got released in 2023.

AOTYCORE 2023. Post-Metal.

Fav tracks: Distance, Others Are Gone. I Don't Care, Feet In The Swamp, Gaze To The Sky
I'm kind of a sucker for post rock in general and this record was a pretty solid first listen for me. The forth track was definitely a highlight with its huge breakdowns and use of saxophone and everything just brought dark and slow vibes.

It's one of the Q-tip (not the rapper) looking mfs from Attack of the Clones.
