Always moving in a most labyrinthine manner, THEВ FLIGHT OF SLEIPNIRвЂ™s strident density is ably balanced by the bandвЂ™s exploration of dynamics, here on Eventide allowing for an even-greater emphasis on simmering softness вЂ“ and theВ results are beautiful, breathtaking, and absolutely cathartic. The Flight of Sleipnir is the brainchild of two individuals, David Csiscely (Drums, Vocals, Guitars) and Clayton Cushman (Guitars, Vocals, Bass, Keyboards), two men joined together by a clear and passionate love of heavy metal, heartfelt melody, and heroic Norse folklore. With the opening notesВ inviting the listener forward with a brave sense of warmth, the album begins building patient vistas of splendor, tension, and release. Its cover depiction of the stars andВ nightingale are visual springboards for where THE FLIGHT OF SLEIPNIR whisk the listener into the sprawling beyond of sleep and darkness, of dreams and impossibility EventideвЂ™sВ artwork suitably keeps apace with the bandвЂ™s continually elegant standards of visual presentation, always delivered by founding drummer/vocalist David Csicsely. Arguably the bandвЂ™s starkest and sparsest work to date, Eventide is an audial rumination on the vast mysteries of nighttime. But, THE FLIGHT OF SLEIPNIRвЂ™s muse is very much of the present, as much as it reverentially draws inspiration from the past: what matters most is that Now, and inВ this present arrives Eventide. The Flight of Sleipnir presents us with not only nighttime but wonder for the great unknown beyond sight, 45 minutes of dream-scanning and dramatic psychedelic music that doesnвЂ™t plod on without heaviness but certainly reaches for a tone of personal reveal, confiding and calmingly surrealistic throughout. On their vast canvas do they paint with tones of doom, prog, black metal, folk, post-rock,В and even country. Forming in Colorado in 2007, this hydra-headed ensemble has built anВ always adventurous canon that defies easy categorization but always is in service of The Muse.
