Scale The Summit (Discography) (2006-2009) - Progressive Metal

Artist : Scale The Summit

Albums : Monument (2006) & Carving Desert Canyons (2009)

Genre : Progressive/Experimental Metal

Scale the Summit for those who are unfamiliar, is not your typical modern American metal band. Scale the Summit harnesses an approach that is non-lyrical, with a sense of subdued progression. What I mean by subdued progression is that it is progressive metal, but not in the traditional form that bands like Dream Theater have popularized with endless drum, keyboard and guitar fills. Instead, I liken Scale the Summit’s work to more of a Green Carnation or Opeth mode of execution, where technicality is still highly apparent, but in a form that allows for simplicity and freeform transitions, rather than highly-technical offbeat time signatures.
