Angry Metal Guy<p><a href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/thraeds-impermanence-review/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">THRÆDS – Impermanence Review</a></p><p><i>By Owlswald</i></p><p>Adding to my list of bands with irregular monikers, German progressive post-metal/rock group <strong>THRÆDS</strong> (pronounced “Threads”) is the latest to fall under the scrutiny of my wide-eyed gaze. Formed in 2019 as a solo project by guitarist Angelos Tzamtzis, <strong>THRÆDS</strong> has since grown into a multi-national five-piece.1 Their 2021 <em>Akasha</em> EP garnered the attention of Octopus Rising—an imprint of Argonauta Records—which is now releasing their debut full-length, <em>Impermanence</em>. The promotional material for this Berlin-based quintet bills itself as a seamless blend of progressive post-metal alongside atmospheric rock, claiming to fuse the sounds of giants like<a href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/gojira-fortitude-review/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><strong> Gojira</strong></a>, <strong>Tool</strong>, and <strong>Porcupine Tree</strong> into a diverse and unique style. Call me cynical, but whenever descriptions throw about such high-caliber names, the reality seldom matches the hype. And, unfortunately, <strong>THRÆDS</strong> proves to be no exception.</p><p>A pervasive sense of familiarity permeates <em>Impermanence</em>’s forty-eight minutes. While “Devolve” delivers a half-time <em>L’Enfant Sauvage</em> stomp with <strong>Gojira</strong>’s trademark pitch shifts and tracks like “Einstein-Rosen Bridge” and “Clockworks” evoke some of the moody melancholia of <strong>Porcupine Tree</strong> or <a href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/katatonia-sky-void-of-stars-review/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><strong>Katatonia</strong></a>, <strong>THRÆDS</strong> ultimately leans too heavily on well-trodden modern rock crutches to convey their moods and textures. As a result, the material on <em>Impermanence</em> is largely standard and unremarkable, offering little in the way of presence or impact. Chuggy palm-muted guitar riffs, delay-heavy arpeggios and gallant distorted chord strumming drive <em>Impermanence</em> during its drawn-out instrumental sections. Celso Borralho’s vocals dither between solemn whines (“Sole Survivor”), gravelly Chester Bennington-esque frys (“Reflections”), and high, soulful croons (“Nothing Good to Say”). While these hint at Borralho’s considerable range, they generally also fall short of his full potential. Despite the self-produced effort registering a mighty DR 10 and Barnabás Mihály’s playful basslines providing some much-needed aptitude, <em>Impermanence</em> exhibits a vanilla disposition with little novelty or energy.</p><p></p><p><strong>THRÆDS</strong> relies on familiar modern rock clichés to drive their songwriting. Rock anthem “Reflections,” with its big, sing-along chorus and radio-ready polish is well-composed but employs repetitive chord progressions and melodic structures a myriad of modern rock groups have used a million times over. Similarly, “Sole Survivor” and “Timeless” lack novelty with formulaic compositions that contrast quiet, delay-saturated post-rock verses with heavier down-tuned choruses filled with garden-variety guitar riffs, foundational rock beats, and cornerstone vocal belting. Borralho frequently toys between his high and low registers, sounding unassured and whiny rather than passionate and introspective as his voice warbles above the melodies. His range and high register are his greatest strengths, yet he seldom leans into them with enough conviction to improve <strong>THRÆDS</strong>’ simplistic approach. Compounding matters is the sheer length of <em>Impermanence</em>’s songs as “Devolve,” “Timeless,” and “Reflections” all clear six minutes while closer “Story in Reverse” pushes eight, primarily to accommodate Alegros Gramma’s sax solo. Even the shorter “Einstein-Rosen Bridge” contributes to <em>Impermanence</em>’s sense of bloat, stretching thin ideas into wandering <strong>Maserati</strong>-like post-rock.</p><p></p><p>Predictably, <em>Impermanence</em>’s stronger moments appear when <strong>THRÆDS</strong> trim the fat and venture outside of well-trodden tropes. A prime example is the solemn “Nothing Good to Say,” where the quintet crafts a condensed, cohesive, and engaging offering with Borralho’s high, soulful croons floating above playful drum and bass grooves, all enveloped by an eerie, atmospheric feel. Mihály’s bass performance is noteworthy, driving a deep pocket with his rhythmic pulses while capably utilizing space with high-scale runs that explore the full range of his fretboard. Likewise, the chorus in “Story in Reverse” and the verse in “Einstein-Rosen Bridge” point to a more favorable stylistic direction, as <strong>THRÆDS</strong> momentarily recalls the grunge-saturated sounds of <a href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/yer-metal-is-oide-alice-in-chains-alice-in-chains/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><strong>Alice in Chains</strong></a> amid stretches of otherwise tedious material.</p><p>From start to finish, <em>Impermanence</em> struggles to find its footing, delivering an unremarkable collection of songs that is more often bland and forgettable than original and engaging. Displaying brief flashes of promise, <strong>THRÆDS</strong> defaults to the comfort of well-worn rock sounds, resulting in an overly long debut that lacks the confidence one would expect from a group aspiring to stand alongside the giants it name-drops. Ultimately, <em>Impermanence</em> rings hollow, forcing progressive and post-metal fans to look elsewhere for novelty and imagination.</p> <p><strong>Rating</strong>: Disappointing<br><strong>DR</strong>: 10 | <strong>Format Reviewed</strong>: 320 kbps mp3<br><strong>Label</strong>: <a href="https://www.argonautarecords.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Argonauta Records</a><br><strong>Websites</strong>: <a href="https://thraeds.bandcamp.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">thraeds.bandcamp.com</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/threads.project" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">facebook.com/threads.project | </a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/thraeds.band/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">instagram.com/thraeds.band/</a><br><strong>Releases Worldwide</strong>: June 6, 2025</p> <p>Show 1 footnote</p><ol><li> Members originate from Chile, Greece, Hungary, New Zealand, and Portugal. <span class="">↩</span></li></ol> <p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/20/" target="_blank">#20</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/2025/" target="_blank">#2025</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/alice-in-chains/" target="_blank">#AliceInChains</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/argonauta-records/" target="_blank">#ArgonautaRecords</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/german-metal/" target="_blank">#GermanMetal</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/gojira/" target="_blank">#Gojira</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/hard-rock/" target="_blank">#HardRock</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/impermanence/" target="_blank">#impermanence</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/jun25/" target="_blank">#Jun25</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/katatonia/" target="_blank">#Katatonia</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/maserati/" target="_blank">#Maserati</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/melodic-metal/" target="_blank">#MelodicMetal</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/octopus-rising-records/" target="_blank">#OctopusRisingRecords</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/porcupine-tree/" target="_blank">#PorcupineTree</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/post-metal/" target="_blank">#PostMetal</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/progressive-rock/" target="_blank">#ProgressiveRock</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/review/" target="_blank">#Review</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/reviews/" target="_blank">#Reviews</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/rock/" target="_blank">#Rock</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/thraeds/" target="_blank">#THRÆDS</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/tool/" target="_blank">#Tool</a></p>

District Dharma<p>The fundamental violence of the state is rooted in our misunderstanding of the nature of the phenomenal world. We keep relating to everything as real and permanent, when in fact it is an expression of space, emptiness, and energy potential. </p><p>We intuitively understand that we are free but have been distracted by illusion. Regardless of whether we are conscious of this or not, our deepest longing is to remember our liberation, but if we are not actively working to get free, then in a way we are consenting to the delusion of the state.</p><p>Lama Rod Owens.

Sara Kathleen<p>While making the larger of these 2 stone compasses yesterday, a very old woman came up to me &amp; said how meditative she found it to watch me, and thanked me for making it. Then, on the internet, an angry self-proclaimed troll told me I was an eco terrorist for doing these. 😎👌🏼 Ok, friend. Enjoy your anger. Anyway, here. Enjoy some of my mindful, harmless, love filled, impermanent ecoterrorism.
