[THE PROG MIND] Iress β Sleep Now, In Reverse
There are always a few albums that sneak into my consciousness at the end of the year which grab hold of me. Right when Iβm trying to finalize year-end lists, I get a curveball. One of them this year is the new one from Iress called Sleep Now, In Reverse. I canβt seem to get enough of it right now.

[TRACK TO HELL] Iress Sleep Now, In Reverse (2024) Church Road Records
Iress es un grupo formado en Los Γngeles hace catorce aΓ±os, tiempo mΓ‘s que suficiente para lograr dejar una impronta con su etΓ©rea mezcla de doom metal, shoegaze y slowcore (hay quienes dicen βdoomgazeβ). Formado por Michelle Malley (voz y guitarra), Graham Walker (guitarra y sintetizador), Michael Maldonado (bajo) y Glenn Chu (baterΓa), esta banda se ha consolidado, con este cuarto Γ‘lbum (aparte de dos EP), como un exponente cautivante en el paisaje del underground musical mΓ‘s sensible, donde las personas andan en busca, no tanto de experiencias catΓ‘rticas, sino de sonidos cuidadosamente arreglados para acompaΓ±ar determinados momentos de su vida. Hordas adoradoras de propuestas como Anathema, The Gathering, Katatonia, pero tambiΓ©n Deftones, Chelsea Wolfe, Emma Ruth Rundle o A.A. Williams: denle una oportunidad a Iress.
