The Details
The progressive groove metal of Auras works within a framework that serves as familiar entry point to those whose lifestyle is devoted to the iconic stop/start blueprint of Meshuggah, the generational paradigm shift of Periphery, the likeminded mathematical wizardry of label mates The Contortionist, and the steady meditative metal grooves of Northlane, Veil Of Maya, and Volumes. Auras have defined their own unique place within the musical storm, a specific weather event enveloping the majesty of metal's pioneers, the aggressive bark of thrash, the oppressive weight of death metal, all swirling in a cosmic fog imbued with the hypnotic groove-oriented pulse of Tool.
