Fresh from the debut album Casing Elixir, Avition takes creativity to intensely dark, industrial and dreamlike new realms with the single Clay Molds.
Blending a surprisingly delicate, nearly whispered and quietly mixed vocal with a clearly heavy and multi-layered soundscape of various striking rhythms and meandering synths and details, Clay Molds feels like the introduction to an alt-metal release; a sense of rising anticipation overwhelms the mood throughout. However, as it proceeds, further unpredictable elements fall into place – a second vocal, breathy and doubled, haunting and unsettling – and this takes things to new arenas once again.
Part of an undeniably raw, real and edgy style, genre proves itself irrelevant as Avition and featured artist ESSEX take listeners down an expressively engaging, other-worldly pathway of contemplation.
