“City of Ashes – The Art of Opacity
Post-rock City Of Ashes are one of the best bands to come out of Eastbourne in recent years, and their song “The Art Of Opacity” from their EP When Black Fuels Blood, with its poetic lyrics, fantastic drumming, and machine-like start is probably their best song to date. Built to be played live its opening, with its whining guitars and punk inspired drumming, harkens to a dark and distant future. As the song gets going it sucks you in, and you can’t help but instantly love it.”
