San Diego trio EARTHLESS return with their new album Night Parade Of One
Hundred Demons, and despite the fact that it only contains three tracks,
those three are so vast and spiralling through so many twists and turns
that it feels like there are many more.

Throughout the album’s epic and expansive tracks, EARTHLESS (as they are
wont to do), take their listeners on a journey through their music.
There is not one moment of filler in its duration and the listener is
kept utterly captivated throughout. First up is Night Parade Of One
Hundred Demons (Part 1), a track which contains a constant heavy groove
and some truly killer guitar solos throughout. When that groove combines
with some truly galloping riffs it really does sound like something
special. The psychedelic vibes and influences that EARTHLESS have really
shine here and it comes on like a vibrant jam session with a hell of a
lot of heart and soul. It sounds as if the band are having the time of
their lives just kicking out the jams. As the song reaches its urgent
crescendo, you will feel that the journey has only just begun.

Night Parade Of One Hundred Demons (Part 2) follows and sees EARTHLESS
taking on a slower pace initially, especially after that frenetic
opener, with a hypnotic tribal drumbeat which continues throughout the
track’s duration. Along with the slower pace is a more focused and
thoughtful groove with more of a glacial and minimal ambience that still
manages to sound massive. There is even a feeling of loss bearing over
it, which certainly adds to the atmosphere being created. Night Parade
Of One Hundred Demons (Part 2) showcases another side to the music of
EARTHLESS and it is another huge and massively intriguing piece of
music. The pace does pick up towards the end of the track and the
results morph into something that is more akin to Part 1, but it works
so well with its highly impressive guitar work and groove and definitely
personifies the scope that EARTHLESS display with their music.

Night Parade Of One Hundred Demons concludes with Death To The Red Sun,
which is a fine third act and finish to this trilogy of vast songs with
its lurching groove and SABBATH-esque vibe. It starts with Electric
Funeral-style riffs before transcending into the kind of psychedelic jam
that has been showcased throughout while remaining resolutely fresh,
leaving listeners to marvel once again at the supreme musicianship on
show here.

This is as epic a listening experience as you can get and each time you
listen you will discover new things to focus on, such is the vast nature
of the music on show here. The most impressive thing however is how,
despite each track being huge in length, it just flies by and keeps you
enthralled constantly. Night Parade Of One Hundred Demons is an album
that EARTHLESS should rightly be proud of, so turn it up loud and enjoy
the immense and glorious nature of this music.
