PARTHOLÓN – The Ocean Pours In / VINYL LP

The Ocean Pours In is the new album from Progressive Sludge/Post-Metallers Partholón who are based in South Coast Of Ireland. Playing within the Sludge/Post-Metal vortex with deep Progressive themes which weighs down heavily throughout the album. The album draws upon bands such as Mastodon, Neurosis, ISIS and Cult Of Luna with a sound that’s quite multi-layered with the sludgy guitars playing music that’s very opaque and quite therapeutic at the same time. There’s a sense of Ambient Mysticism within the more sombre Psychedelic moments of the album when Partholón play a more nuanced style of Post-Rock/Post-Metal which comes across superbly well within the opening track Skin Of The Beast.
