Apolaustic - No Plenitude Without Suffering Apolaustic

Apolaustic was formed by former Stortregn vocalist/guitarist Romain Negro as an outlet for him to express his personal vision

At once scathing and stirring, the sharp, insistent riffs go hand in hand with elegant melodies that never outstay their welcome. The aggression and poignancy is beautifully managed with plenty of variations provided to highlight those motions at the right times. After experiencing the turmoil of life, the aching pain in the melodies is all too palpable. "No Plenitude Without Suffering" is a heartfelt, meticulously put together, pristine-sounding debut from a veteran musician which is bound to stand the test of time if only on the basis of the sheer quality of melodies contained within.
