Protest The Hero – Pacific Myth – Double 180 Gram Purple Swirl Vinyl Record
Pacific Myth is an EP (extended play) by the Canadian progressive metal band Protest the Hero. Pacific Myth was released on November 18, 2016. It was initially released as a subscription series, with one song released each month over a six-month period. After the series was complete, the entire EP was made available.
The EP consists of six tracks, with each track representing a month in the subscription series. Protest the Hero utilized a crowdfunding model to finance the creation of Pacific Myth. Supporters who subscribed to the band’s subscription series received a new song each month and additional perks.
Protest the Hero is known for its technical and progressive approach to metal. “Pacific Myth” continues in this vein, featuring intricate guitar work, complex rhythms, and dynamic song structures.
The six tracks on the EP are “Ragged Tooth,” “Tidal,” “Cold Water,” “Cataract,” “Harbinger,” and “Caravan.”
The band’s decision to use a subscription model and release the EP independently allowed them to maintain creative control over their music and engage directly with their fanbase.
Pacific Myth showcases Protest the Hero’s musical prowess and their willingness to experiment with alternative release models in the changing landscape of the music industry. Fans of progressive metal and Protest the Hero’s previous work may find this EP particularly engaging.
