Afflicted – Prodigal Sun – Cassette

Afflicted’s album Prodigal Sun is a notable release in the death metal genre that showcases the band’s technical prowess and innovative approach to the music. Released in 1992, the album offers a blend of complex song structures, intricate guitar work, and a sense of experimentation that sets it apart.

Prodigal Sun is characterized by its fusion of death metal with progressive and technical elements. Tracks like ‘Ivory Tower’ and ‘Rising to the Sun’ highlight Afflicted’s ability to seamlessly shift between aggressive riffs and more melodic, intricate passages.

The album’s title suggests themes of rebirth and renewal, which can be seen mirrored in the music’s dynamic shifts and evolution. Afflicted’s lyrics often explore philosophical and introspective concepts, adding an intellectual layer to their music that complements its complexity.

Musically, Prodigal Sun demonstrates the band’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of the death metal genre. The album’s technicality and musicianship are evident in the intricate guitar solos, unconventional time signatures, and the interplay between different instrumental elements.

While Prodigal Sun might not have achieved the same level of mainstream recognition as some other death metal releases, it remains highly regarded within the underground metal community. The album’s willingness to experiment and its ability to blend multiple musical influences contribute to its enduring appeal among fans of progressive and technical death metal.
