New album, “No Plenitude Without Suffering”, out on April 3rd!
Apolaustic was formed by the former Stortregn vocalist/guitarist Romain Negro as an outlet for him to express his personal vision. At once scathing and stirring, the sharp, insistent riffs go hand in hand with elegant melodies that never outstay their welcome. The aggression and poignancy is beautifully managed with plenty of variations provided to highlight those emotions at the right times. After experiencing the turmoil of life, the aching pain in the melodies is all too palpable. “No Plenitude Without Suffering” is a heartfelt, meticulously put together, pristine-sounding debut from a veteran musician that is bound to stand the test of time if only on the basis of the sheer quality of melodies contained within.
