Clandestine - The Invalid

Genres: Hard Rock, Heavy Metal, Progressive Rock
Label: Nightmare Records

Seeming to take a page from Canada’s Scratching Post, Clandestine are playing a type of music that is full of melodies with a powerful female vocalist. The music itself ranges from Scratching Post-esq hard rock to early Deftones nĂ¼-ness, with some more progressive passages akin to Tool during the Lateralus era.
Pretty good stuff, if you ask me.
Favorite tracks are “Disappear in You”, “Philistine”, and “Dead to the World”, with “Phantom Pain” definitely recommended.
8 out of 10.
