The Divergent - Neuroplasticity - Song Review - Progressive Death Metal from Hämeenlinna, Finland
Today, we have the privilege of featuring The Divergent, an exceptional melodic progressive death metal band from Hämeenlinna, Finland, with their groundbreaking song 'Neuroplasticity.'
The Divergent is a unique and highly impressive melodic death metal band that recently caught my attention through Metalhead Community Submissions. Their debut release, 'Neuroplasticity,' which came out in 2019, stands as one of the greatest metal compositions I've had the pleasure of hearing in recent times. This is truly an exceptional achievement.
Upon closer examination, it becomes evident that The Divergent possesses a wealth of songwriting experience and advanced musicianship. Their compositions and decisions exhibit a level of creativity rarely encountered. 'Neuroplasticity' is replete with fresh and innovative elements, seamlessly connected through a captivating energy flow. The powerful guitar riffage, instrumental partitions, and vocal delivery combine to form an extraordinary unity, creating a potent and meaningful whole. The song exudes a dark, mysterious, and aggressive atmosphere that immediately commands attention and immerses listeners in its world.
It is not uncommon for metal bands, even renowned ones like Metallica, Megadeth, Dream Theater, and Behemoth, to lack the level of creativity and harmony that The Divergent has so masterfully captured. This lamentable trend saddens me deeply. However, The Divergent has shattered these limitations and barriers with their debut release, instilling hope in metal fans and inspiring future generations of musicians. They have exhibited immense potential through this remarkable achievement, surpassing all expectations. As I have mentioned in previous articles, such high standards are seldom anticipated from emerging bands. The Divergent has undeniably made an indelible mark and showcased their ability to conquer the metal world.
Technically speaking, 'Neuroplasticity' meets the highest standards of musicality. The sound quality is immaculate—clean, clear, perfectly balanced, and expertly mixed and mastered.
