Contrapasso (2016)

A much different take on progressive rock, Seven Impale adds metal elements and even electronics to the stew. Once you realize this will not be a retro prog effort, the results are just as satisfying as the debut. One can see why this album isn't as highly rated, but I enjoy them the same, though they're obviously very different in their approach. One of those albums you know needs more listens to properly absorb.

City of the Sun (2014)

Seven Impale's debut is a dense work recalling Van der Graaf Generator and King Crimson, with a more contemporary vocal style. A somewhat typical modern take on 70s prog rock, borderline impenetrable, but ultimately satisfying.
