Quantum

by IMPERIALIST

supported by

Metallurgical Fire Finally convinced by this band. That fifth track is a violent anthem. Looking for growth on the next LP. Vocalist reminds me directly of Rimfrost and Grá, two of the best. Favorite track: Quiescent Terror.

Sid I would've never thought these guys would be from California, but I'm glad that these guys exist and bring in something unique to the black metal genre. It's refreshing to see something different in terms of lyrical themes pertaining to Sci-Fi and space than the typical "Satanic" stuff that is overplayed.

This retains the Scandinavian style reminiscent of Dissection and at times, Immortal, but incorporates a more modern sound.

I love this! Favorite track: Echoed Demise.

sashavonkarl74 After "Zenith" I kinda stopped looking for Imperialist, because despite the "SciFi" art covers and lyrics content, the sound is quite reminiscent of the beaten Scandinavian formula. Then I listened to this EP and was pleasantly surprised since the riff structure and melodies are more innovative than I had expected. The guitar work alone is outstanding and worth being here, no doubt! Favorite track: Quantum Annexation.

about

Sci-fi themed black metal band Imperialist re-analyse their sound on this EP, tracing their roots and fortifying their sound to make it their most potent and lethal material yet. All the elements that made the band known around the galaxy are there; they've only made their sonic output sharper and tighter and it's also among their fastest and most aggressive material yet. Despite that, they haven't alienated the sentient melodic aspect of their music which is used tastefully on this release. In what comes as a departure from their previous style of artworks, the artwork for Quantum is conspicuously dark and menacing, aptly reflecting the mood of the music. With steely determination, Imperialist are soaring ahead, sparing us a glimpse into their plans for the future where an impregnable new full length release is taking shape. 

For fans of - Dissection, Vorga, Necrophobic, Vektor, Frozen Dawn, Immortal, Abigor
