Angry Metal Guy<p><strong><a href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/five-the-hierophant-apeiron-review/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Five the Hierophant – Apeiron Review</a></strong></p><p><i>By Carcharodon</i></p><p>I wanted to love <strong>Five the Hierophant</strong>’s last album, 2021’s <em>Through Aureate Void</em>. I really did. Alas, it was not to be. However, after seeing them play a great set at ArcTanGent in 2022, I revisited that record. While I stand by everything in that review, including the 2.0, which some viewed as harsh, the potential was clear and <strong>Five the Hierophant</strong> was tantalizingly close to delivering a worthy follow-up to their very good debut, <em>Over Phlegethon</em>. The British quartet’s brand of psychedelic, jazz-inspired, instrumental post-metal had elements of greatness marred by meandering, over-indulgent songwriting that lacked standout ideas. However, I can’t think of another 2.0 that I’ve given, where I would be as genuinely interested and optimistic as I was going into <strong>Five the Hierophant</strong>’s third album, <em>Apeiron</em>. Could they tighten up the formula and deliver that great record I know they have in them?</p><p>While there is no paradigm shift in <strong>Five the Hierophant</strong>’s sound on <em>Apeiron</em>, there is a clear expansion of vision. Building on the model of <em>Through Aureate Void</em>, the foundation remains one of dark, sprawling atmospheres, pregnant with ambience and pent-up threat (“Tower of Silence I”). The backbone of <strong>Five the Hierophant</strong>’s sound is built around bass, guitar, drums, and other percussion, apeing the likes of BRIQUEVILLE to create a rich, textured post-metal soundscapes (title track). However, where some bands rely on a vocalist to punctuate and enhance their compositions, <strong>Five the Hierophant</strong> have Jon’s sax. Crooning, whispering, screaming, the sax commands the sound stage (“Uroboros”), just as it is allowed to do in places on <strong>White Ward</strong>’s albums also. However, not content to rest on its laurels, the band is ever-expanding its horizons, broadening the already extensive array of tools at their disposal to now include horns, trumpets, gongs, bells, violins, skull shakers, and more.</p><p></p><p><em>Apeiron</em> is a Greek word meaning that which is unlimited or infinite. What <strong>Five the Hierophant</strong> do so well is to capture that sense of both scale and organic fluidity. The overarching drone and ambient elements feel boundless and vast, amplified as they are by not only the horns and violins (“Moon over Ziggurat” and the title track), but also the liberal use of effects (end of “Tower of Silence I” and closer, “Tower of Silence II”). The sax, as well as the trumpet and other adornments, then light up the inky void, sometimes flowing like quicksilver (“Moon over Ziggurat”), sometimes more challenging, insistent, even angry (the opening title track), occasionally recalling the freeform lines of <strong>Neptunian Maximalism</strong> or an instrumental <strong>Pan.Thy.Monium</strong>. Even as we slip into looser, more chaotic soundscapes (middle portion of “Initiatory Sickness”), the whole of <em>Apeiron</em> retains an identity and cohesion that does great credit to <strong>Five the Hierophant</strong>.</p><p>A cursory listen to <em>Apeiron</em> might suggest that <strong>Five the Hierophant</strong> has delivered a freeform creation, light on tangible structures. However, while this may be true using only traditional metal as your reference point, there <em>is</em> a model or blueprint for the material that runs through the record. Each track opens in languid mood and, even where there are threatening or forbidding overtones, the sound is delicate, restrained slow-burn. It then gradually builds towards something more powerful and cathartic, punctuated by chaotic forays along the way. Perhaps this basic mold is responsible for the cohesive feel of <em>Apeiron</em>. However, it also means that, after a few listens, you start to lose the sense of indefinite exploration and feel instead like you are on a moist, well-trodden, slightly predictable path. That said, despite only being four minutes shorter than <em>Through Aureate Void</em>, the material on <em>Apeiron</em> feels significantly tighter and less meandering, with the sole (and unfortunate) exception of “Tower of Silence II.” This was, sadly, entirely the wrong five minutes with which to close the album. If only <strong>Five the Hierophant</strong> had stopped at the end of “Uroboros” (or, I suppose, swapped the two tracks), this could have been a far superior experience. As it is, <em>Apeiron </em>finishes on a disappointing siding, rather than a triumphant main line.</p><p>The production on <em>Apeiron</em> is a significant step up from previous albums. Rich and dynamic, it imbues <strong>Five the Hierophant</strong>’s sound with genuine power, while the master allows the legion of constituent elements sufficient breathing room. Indeed, it’s not just the production, but also the songwriting that represents a significant step up. Where <em>Through Aureate Void</em> meandered aimlessly, <em>Apeiron</em> feels like a journey, albeit with diversions and detours en route. If <strong>Five the Hierophant</strong> can now finetune their process to maintain the feel they’ve imbued <em>Apeiron</em> with, while slightly reducing the structural predictability, their next record will be truly masterful.</p> <p><strong>Rating:</strong> 3.0/5.0<br><strong>DR:</strong> 7 | <strong>Format Reviewed:</strong> 320 kb/s mp3<br><strong>Label:</strong> <a href="https://www.agoniarecords.com/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Agonia Records</a><br><strong>Websites:</strong> <a href="http://five-the-hierophant.bandcamp.com" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">five-the-hierophant.bandcamp.com</a> | <a href="http://facebook.com/fivethehierophant" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">facebook.com/fivethehierophant</a><br><strong>Releases Worldwide:</strong> October 18th, 2024</p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/2024/" target="_blank">#2024</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/30/" target="_blank">#30</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/agonia-records/" target="_blank">#AgoniaRecords</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/ambient/" target="_blank">#Ambient</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/apeiron/" target="_blank">#Apeiron</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/avante-garde/" target="_blank">#AvanteGarde</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/briqueville/" target="_blank">#Briqueville</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/british-metal/" target="_blank">#BritishMetal</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/doom-jazz/" target="_blank">#DoomJazz</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/drone/" target="_blank">#Drone</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/five-the-hierophant/" target="_blank">#FiveTheHierophant</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/neptunian-maximalism/" target="_blank">#NeptunianMaximalism</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/oct24/" target="_blank">#Oct24</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/pan-thy-monium/" target="_blank">#PanThyMonium</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/post-metal/" target="_blank">#PostMetal</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/review/" target="_blank">#Review</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/reviews/" target="_blank">#Reviews</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/white-ward/" target="_blank">#WhiteWard</a></p>
