Album:
29.08. IHLO - "Legacy" (Kscope/Edel)
Ihlo introduce ‘Empire’, the first single from the new album: “Empire was the song that really kickstarted the album writing process and helped guide us towards the finished product. Underneath the deceptively bouncy rhythms and uplifting harmonies, there hides a dark and brooding atmosphere that became integral to the feel of the entire record. This track showcases the shift into a more natural sound for the band, while retaining the attention to detail in every single element, and the modern production quality we love. Our first studio output in 6 years, this track contains a little bit of everything you want in an Ihlo song, and we're so excited to finally be able to show it off to the world!” – Ihlo
IHLO RETURN WITH THEIR AMBITIOUS SECOND ALBUM LEGACY
Five years in the making, Ihlo’s new album Legacy marks a major step forward for the British outfit, capturing their growth from rising newcomers to a confident force in the UK modern prog scene. Written collaboratively by band members Andy Robison, Phil Monro, and Clark McMenemy, Legacy is a fascinating and worthy successor to 2019’s Union - an acclaimed debut that topped Bandcamp’s Progressive Metal chart and won Ihlo praise across the prog world.
Recorded in part at The Arch Studios in Southport - a stunning space housed within a 140-year-old restored church - Legacy benefits from the studio’s breathtaking acoustics, which lend the drums an organic immediacy. The album presents ten new tracks that drift between shimmering ambience and tightly wound rhythmic propulsion. Where Union hinted at Ihlo’s influences, Legacy speaks in their own voice: ambitious without excess, richly melodic yet never predictable.
Lyrically, the album casts a wary eye on the near-future - one in which technological advancement feels increasingly hollow, its progress governed by profit rather than purpose.
