Latitudes - Discography

 

Latitudes was formed in England in 2006. Their debut full-length, Agonist, is one of the most essential post metal albums released in the last 10 years, although they're a relatively unknown band. They offer an approach similar to the more famous Russian Circles, but heavier and more dense. All of their albums were received with well deserved good reviews, especially their last masterpiece "Old Sunlight".

Their current line-up includes bassis Jon Lyon, drummer Mike Davies, guitarist Tim Blyth, guitarist Adam Crowley (who previously played on Gilla Bruja) and vocalist Adam Symonds (who also played on Eden Maine). They also had a keyboardist who later left the band. Rich Harper.

It's very interesting to see how Latitudes performs a very dense and catchy metal that isn't completely unaccessible. Their sound is very similar to Russian Circles and early Callisto, but pretty original on its own. Their music is mostly instrumental, but vocals were added in a few songs, such as "Body Within a Body" from Old Sunlight, that captures perfectly everything Latitudes is about: heaviness, atmosphere and density.

My starting point was Agonist, which remains my favorite, but since all of their records are top-tier i recommend listening in cronological order.
