Neurosis Artist Snapshot:

Formed in the late 1980s, Neurosis was one of the first heavy metal bands to rework the genre's sound in a genuinely experimental fashion. Using bits of acoustic guitar, sound collages, and experimental noise, and offering a politically charged multimedia live show, the Bay Area group gained a strong cult following as well as critical acceptance. The band formed the Tribes of Neurot art collective in the late '90s, and has been recording with famed producer Steve Albini since 1999's TIME OF GRACE.

Review

Alternative Press (p.130) - 5 out of 5 - "[E]very note of these long-form songs lands with dizzying impact."
The Wire (p.70) - "Neurosis combine Industrial aggression with Wagnerian pomp and a touch of slowed down, psychedelic blues."
CMJ (p.38) - "Neurosis' music steps outside of brash, inexplicable anger and one-sided dynamics on THE EYE OF EVERY STORM, wringing acrimony, regret and acceptance slowly from its dirges..."

Title Note

Neurosis: Scott Kelly (vocals, guitar); Steve Von Till (guitar, background vocals); Noah Landis (piano, organ, sampler); Dave Edwardson (Moog synthesizer, bass instrument); Jason Roeder (drums).

Recording information: Electrical Audio, Chicago, Illinois; Deaf Mute Trust Company, San Francisco, CA.

Veteran acts like Neurosis can only stay alive through constant evolution, and THE EYE OF EVERY STORM is yet another dramatic step in the Bay Area group's long, strange journey. Whereas previous albums could be considered studies in heaviness with moments of reflection and meditation, THE EYE OF EVERY STORM shifts the focus to a stronger emphasis on atmosphere and mood, with temporary squalls of heavy metal thunder punctuating the explorations.

Similar in spirit to minimalist post-metal acts like Godspeed! You Black Emperor and Isis, the songs employ instruments outside of the usual metal borders, with Moog synthesizers and pianos accenting the guitar, bass, and drums. The vocals of Steve Von Till and Scott Kelly have also changed, as the rugged bark of previous albums has mutated into a gritty gutter croon. All of this is not to say that Neurosis has lost its edge here; the mood is still dark and gloomy, and the flashes of noise that poke through the haze are as grand and breathtaking. THE EYE OF EVERY STORM is still intense; it's just a different kind of intensity, more internal and emotional than previous Neurosis efforts.
