(post-metal/post-rock) OVUM - In my sanctuary - 2017, MP3, 320 kbps

OVUM are a four-piece instrumental rock band originating from Tokyo, Japan.
New inspiration gained during their 2014 European tour spurred OVUM to radically change their musical direction. This development saw the band take on a more expressive style of playing defined by the members as "metal-oriented instrumental rock," with a heavier and more aggressive approach built onto their core sound.

Four years on, the band returns with a full-length album, "In My Sanctuary," and with it a solid, freshly acquired originality that can be described as "metal-oriented instrumental rock," pushing to greater heights their newfound aggressiveness and the beautiful melodies that remain at their core. To further drive home this point, the album also features a string quartet, lending eye-opening ferocity and intricacy to dramatic compositions woven by both the quartet and OVUM themselves, as well as to the songwriting skills that first give their vision life.
"In My Sanctuary" is OVUM's career magnum opus, given flesh through the band's renowned compositional skills and musical tenacity.
