Palehørse – Palehørse

Label: Indie Recordings
Releasedate: 05-04-2019

The band Amendfoil we saw a couple of times at Tuska. We even bothered to get rained away when they were opening the mainstage on the last day of the festival. So they were on our radar. Recently they decided to change their name to Palehørse and got signed with Indie Recordings. Things look fine for the guys so to say. They released their selftitled album earlier this month.

The guys are still having their progressive touch, the first song of this release showing a bit of that combined with a lot of catchiness. One that sticks in mind easily. The album has more of where that came from, listen to the song “Odious” which holds between the kind of metal that hits the charts and that progressive side, a commercial success with enough body to have the more advanced listener enjoy it as well.
If you hear the intro of “Less Than A Ghost” you see that the band has these skills there, composition wise they make smart choices and the song gives you the impression that the band can bring an energetic show live as well. Which we can only confirm from previous experience.

So the Finnish guys have released a good first album. Palehørse is hitting a wide range of audience, targetting the once who like the music quite catchy as well as the ones who prefer comprehension.
