Isis tabs Isis



IsisMy Genre: Post-Metal What's this?

iTunes Genre: Metal



Who's in the band?

-Aaron Turner on [Guitar] and [Vocals].

-Michael Gallagher on [Guitar].

-Jeff Caxide on [Bass].

-Aaron Harris on [Drums].

-Bryant Clifford Meyer on [Keyboard], [Guitar] and [Vocals].


My Experience:

Isis was my first Foray into the "Post-Metal" Genre (Also known as Steel, tell your friends).

I was introduced by my Drummer [Jet Crossley].

It definitely took me a few listens through before I really "Got It", but once I did...whoo boy I just sucked it up.

Now that "Steel" Genre is one of my favorites. Bands like "Baroness" and "Pelican".

I just love the way they make the songs evolve. On top of that, they just have such a different feel than other "Metal" bands.

With the "Steel" genre in general, I feel that there is so much more emotion put into it, than typical metal.




Noticeable Traits:

  • A Great focus on the way each song evolves, and the structure of said songs.
  • Custom Tuning on Guitar
  • Lengthy Songs
  • The Theme of most albums often hit upon the idea of society being controlled by overseers, almost like a prison (See Panopticon).

Featured Band:

Gorillaz

Gorillaz is a super classic band, and for a good reason. With some of the best combinations of electronic music, featuring artists from Mos Def, to MF Doom, it's a really incredible band.

Their newest album, "The Fall", was even recording entirely on an iPad! I highly recommend they become an integral part to your music library, and I've been listening to them for the last month straight (Religiously).
