Edification (Deluxe) by AFTER SMOKE CLEARS
The debut album from After Smoke Clears
Edification Press: ‘Dark textures are married with acerbic screams amongst a flurry of nu metal inspired riffs and bass likes, before the album blossoms into a cacophonous frenzy of hyper-precise tech-groove cuts shot through with modern metalcore overtones for maximum shit-kicking effect, 7 out of 10' – Metal Hammer
Extinguo Press: ‘Combining groovy rhythms and hard hitting -core elements, British Groove/Metalcore…band After Smoke Clears comes out swinging on their latest single "Extinguo"’ - Metal Injection
Machine Dependent Press: ‘After Smoke Clears continue to impress with their reminder of how we have become ‘Machine Dependent’ with this excellent slice of technical death-dealing.’ - Uber Rock
‘After Smoke Clears continue their rising trajectory with their fourth single of 2020. Certainly the best one so far. Twists and turns keep the listener vested, headbanging within the first couple of seconds. I for one can’t wait to see what they hold in store for us after this release. After Smoke Clears are definitely the one to watch.’ - MusicMattersGB.com
