Andrew Witt This is an amazing album of metal styles mixed together with superb musicianship all around. It's a fantastic concept album and it's filled with technical brilliance while not being "showoffs". One of the best albums of 2020 hands down! Favorite track: Hostile Forces III: Typhoeus.

TheEliteExtremophile This album is ultimately death metal-based, is more melodic, with frequent clean passages. Post-metal-style walls of noise are a common occurrence. The nearly half-hour “Hostile Forces” suite is an impressive composition brimming with tonal contrasts and diverse sound palettes.

baudelagon Bluffé par la qualité de ce premier album. Aucune longueur, aucune imitation trop évidente. Les guitares sont très rythmiques et insufflent un souffle vigoureux à des morceaux assez structurés. Le chant - le chant surtout - est toujours agréable et toujours opportun. Longue vie !

The Prog Sampler Series - Podcast Great progressive metal. Not the “look how fast can i play” but a one full of power, beauty and feeling. Favorite track: Hostile Forces II: The Chant of Sins.

I I am too blind to see But alive to feel There’s a burden in me Oh I I’m feeling the burning ground Fire’s catching my feet Someone help me to figure it Out Oh Are you there? Reveal yourself? Give me a sign Lights and shadows Crimson skies Radiant being Open my eyes Spread the sail of joy fly to reach my height Be the one who soars The golden path I draw For you Is it true What I feel? A dream turns real Speak to me Once again I can’t believe I’m insane What I am feeling is gambling with me Not what I’m seeing but what I should be No way to play to conquer the hand The echo of my pain roars til the end Spread the sail of joy Fly to reach my height Be the one who soars The golden path I draw For you Light is fading Darkness rises Eyes are closing My soul beholding Veins run cold Past is gone Tears of gold My faith is done Faint

Coming through the path Thoughts are rolling in my mind Pain Howling Blurriness in my eyes Sorrows take over the time Pain Howling I’ve been counting days I won’t fade away I am struggling with life This fear is like a wall to climb Willing to lose my mortal frame Azrael seize my flesh I won’t lose my halo Azrael don’t steal my strength Willing to lose my chora I want to save my breath Our desire not to die Craves the golden path I’ve been counting days I won’t fade away I am struggling with life This fear is like a wall to climb Ascend the golden path Ascend the golden path

Now that I’m stuck into the mud Petrified snakes look at me into the eyes Fingers ‘round golden coils Pale skin drains out my drowned voice Melody charms, hexes on me Odysseus teach me how to flee Ohh – Ohh Come to us Pray on us Heat on us Embrace the lust Now that I’m ripped up between my sin and the path I’ve gotta move on Seeking the goal Gimme some wax to shield my ears My mind, my soul Ohh – Ohh Come to us Pray on us Hit on us Embrace the lust Out of the way you go Please just leave me alone Don’t wanna hear you anymore Off my chain I will go Ohh - Ohh Come to us Pray on us Hit on us Embrace the lust I’m feeling in my feet The fuel to start fleeing Facing the wind The gold has start to Weep, I breathe again I see you down the lane Feeding my heart Never seen such beauty before Oh oh Always inside far from you Beating inside dying for you Always inside far from you Beating inside dying for you I’m feeling in my feet The fuel to start fleeing Facing the wind The gold has start to Weep, I breathe again I see you down the lane Lend me a hand Never seen such beauty before Nymphai Running I'llness Madness Yelling at me Yelling at me I don’t wanna live Scared to be, Scared to bleed Just one soul Just my soul Just one soul into a sea Just my soul into a sea of despair Cry Am I safe? Will I survive? Face down Knees in the dust Tasting the ground There is one last There is one last Waiting on me I must act fast No place to hide No place to run Soar the path Soar the path

The creature’s front of me Should I join him Or face him off Let him go Torn down Who are you Choking gaze Blinding stench The cry of flesh Don’t you forget I’m the slasher of Aegis Of thunder and deities, slayer of men! Typhoeus is my name, I’ve grown into darkness Conceived in the depth of nothingness Pearl eyes stare Grim unfair The fear is your ax, built in sickness May I waste my time, chasing the life Muse may I demand for your guide? Not your demise, you’ll brightly arise This is what you get joining me Your brothers and sisters perceiving no distress The price is no sight for those whom just need to exist Nitirur ille quidem pugnatque resurgere saepe Dextra sed Ausonio manus est subiecta Peloro Laeva Pachyne, tibi, Lilybaeo crura premuntur Degravat Aetna caput, sub qua harenas Eiectat flammamque ferox vomit ore Typhoeus Nitirur ille quidem pugnatque resurgere saepe Dextra sed Ausonio manus est subiecta Peloro Laeva Pachyne, tibi, Lilybaeo crura premuntur Degravat Aetna caput, sub qua harenas Eiectat flammamque ferox vomit ore Typhoeus Nitirur ille quidem pugnatque resurgere saepe Dextra sed Ausonio manus est subiecta Peloro Laeva Pachyne, tibi, Lilybaeo crura premuntur Degravat Aetna caput, sub qua harenas Eiectat flammamque ferox vomit ore Typhoeus. Eiectat flammamque ferox vomit ore Typhoeus.

Overwhelming voices Floating all around me Veiled in golden draperies Whisper me the way Peaceful faces moving My ode to joy Sorrows never hit me again I’ve never felt so alive before Always inside close to you Beatin’ inside living through you Always inside close to you Beatin’ inside living through you Like the sun turns the stone Guide my hand through your flow I am diamond yet to craft Cast your raise upon my rast Come to me Let me heal your wounds Once, for all Let me show our world Nothing can harm you here Don’t be afraid Take my hand It’s time to breathe my Air Air Blend into each other Melting two souls Turn into one endless entity Enlight Spread the sail of joy Fly to reach my height (Now you’re here) You’re the one who soared The golden path I’ve drawn (Now you’re here) For you Dive into the Styx Your laurel will live forever

about

Frogg is a progressive metal band based in Milan.

Drenching their music in history of art and literature, "The Golden Path" depicts Klimt’s allegorical ''Beethoven Frieze”.

The narrative accurately follows the frieze’s development starting off with Ascension, which represents the start of the journey in the struggle for happiness, to be then followed by the narrative peak in the fight against Hostile Forces and resolved with a powerful, heavenly choir in Melting Souls, the end of the Path and the meeting with the Art itself.

The whole journey is represented through a variety of musical genres and reprises from one song to another, encompassing tight, punchy low tuned guitars, synths and catchy vocal lines.
