And as everyone knows, coal turns to diamonds in time. It virtaully seemed as if everyone woke up to smell the coffee when the “Coal” album was released. Their last album from May 2013 created a strong platform for LEPROUS, be it towards the press, the fans or live promoters, and showed an immense step upwards for the band on various levels.
The attention that LEPROUS grip pinpoints the very unique spot in a variety of progressive music nowadays. The latest diamond to shine on the international prog-scene is the Norwegian band LEPROUS.Īfter paving the way with three studio albums: “Tall Poppy Syndrome” (2009), “Bilateral” (2011) and “Coal” (2013), LEPROUS’ latest musical endeavours on “The Congregation“ - the title of the new album - marvelously emphasize the amount of maturity the band has gained, also thanks to relentless touring activity across several continents in the lasty years.
In a scene where it's rare to stand out and make something truly unique, sometimes a diamond shines.
