Oak - The Third Sleep (2025)

 

The fourth album from this band from Norway.

The band was a quartet with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars, keyboards and vocals.

This is the follow up album to their good 2022 album The Quiet Rebellion Of Compromise, an album reviewed back in December the same year in # 3 of this blog.

The Third Sleep is a three quarters of an hour long album. It follows in the same vein as their first three albums. That means Anathema meets Airbag and Marillion.

Art-rock in other words.

The music is mid-tempo with some very good vocals. It is also pretty complex. There are some death metal vocals on the final song of this album, the very good Sensory Overload.

The music is also elegant throughout.

The result is a very good album and one to check out. 

3.5 points
