Surprise myself doing some strange head banging, because is not that 'regular' 4/4 to I found the instrumental fractions in the heavy songs very attractive and I Singer need a little more work in his screams, because is not just about to scream and see Metal phrases (a little more aggressive maybe) but the vocals didn't make it for me. In the heavy side of things, I found very interesting riffing and good construction of regular prog. I have to say that the soft phrases and the songs with more mellow approach were very goodĪnd it really shares some kind of enjoyable emotions, and the voice matches really well there. The resultĭepends too much on each one tastes, because is strange and is difficult to describe. The mood and suddenly it blows away with more 'regular' post metal onslaught. This band uses a lot of ambience noisy soft environment to set Well, I didn't expect a piano based 'post-metal' band and if you find it a little odd, let me tell you A strange worthy material, but not exactly my cup of tea.

This young band, full of talent and a love for music and its exploration, is highly recommended to those seeking an original, creative and not-typical progressive metal band. As John Feustel from the band says: 'We're attempting to exist on a donation-based model, we realize that the music industry is undergoing a radical change, and we want to be at the front of separating the art of music from commercial interests.' The band is a self accomplished band, producing and releasing their two first albums by themselves, and moreover they have been giving away their albums for free. Atmospheric sounding alongside aggressive tunes are to be found in their songs the end result being a sound that will appeal to people who like the idea of combining the sounds of sludge/atmospheric metal (Isis, Neurosis) and the more adventurous and experimental side of metal (Maudlin Of The Well, Grayceon), while not leaving out the aggressions that metal music is known for. With the use of classical instruments (strings, trombone, piano) they augment their sound, their heavier metal side which is in itself complex, beautiful and compelling. The Pax Cecilia deliver a mixture of sounds that can be delicate and smooth on the one hand and heavy and fierce on the other hand. Formed in Brookville, Pennsylvania, USA in 2002 (later based in Rochester, New York) - Put on hold since 2011
