Invoking The Abstract Posts "The Summit" Video
Earlier this fall, South Carolina-based instrumental tech metal sorcerers Invoking The Abstract unleashed debut full-length "Aural Kaleidoscopes" upon the masses via Unique Leader Records.
Tracked at The Basement Recording Studios with Jamie King (Between The Buried And Me, The Contortionist, Scale The Summit), the confounding record utilizes various approaches to rhythm, phrasing, and playing techniques to convey a sound that transcends genres. Listen in right here.
Today a visual accompaniment to mind-bending track "The Summit" comes online, with the band commenting: "'The Summit' is Invoking The Abstract at its most progressive. It features a broad dynamic pallet constantly shifting meters, and abrasive modulations. It begins with an eerie chord progression and shifts into an ever-changing riff salad, which ultimately returns to the original theme, lending the piece a sort of radial symmetry." More...

Invoking The Abstract Reveals Album Details
The instrumental tech metal architects from Invoking The Abstract will release debut full-length album "Aural Kaleidoscopes" via Unique Leader on September 30th, 2016.
Hailing from Columbia, South Carolina and formed in 2010, guitarists Tyler Ivey and Evan Garner started composing music for a new project that would become Invoking The Abstract. After the release of a first EP in 2012, they joined forces with percussionist Ryan Meadows and bassist Joseph Carrabotta.
The band recorded "Aural Kaleidoscopes" at The Basement Recording Studios with Jamie King (Between The Buried And Me, The Contortionist, Scale The Summit). Comments the band:
"'Aural Kaleidoscopes' is a diverse and precise album written to challenge us as musicians and composers. Each song is composed in a different key, none of which are repeated until the final track that transforms the keys into a serialist scale. Some songs are composed to freely flow from one to the next, as others stand alone as achievements in their own right, creating a partial concept album. This album is also our first experiment with completely instrumental arrangements leaving the interpretation of each piece to the listener." More...
