Cavity - Laid Insignificant
Review by Margaret Whitehead
Cavity's album Laid Insignificant is a crushing display of raw, unadulterated sludge metal. From start to finish, the band pummels the listener with thunderous riffs, bone-rattling basslines, and ferocious drumming.
The album's production is suitably murky and dense, with a thick wall of sound that engulfs the listener. The vocals are often buried deep in the mix, adding to the album's ominous, foreboding atmosphere.
Despite the relentless brutality of the music, there is a sense of purpose and intentionality to the band's approach. Each track feels carefully crafted and thoughtfully executed, with a keen sense of dynamics and pacing.
Standout tracks include the epic opener "Crawling," which sets the tone for the rest of the album with its slow, deliberate build-up and explosive release. "Supercollider" is another highlight, with its churning, hypnotic riff and crushing breakdown.
