A nutritious feast of razor-sharp songwriting and masterful ensemble performances, Melodies Of Atonement marks a significant change in the way Leprous express themselves. Shorn of previous albums’ orchestral sumptuousness, and stripped to the bare bones reality of five musicians playing together, new songs like first single Atonement, and its planned follow-up Silent Walking Alone, repurpose Leprous’ progressive metal roots to create something that is both thrillingly alien and reassuringly familiar.
