Leprous - Forced Entry

     Better not have anything important going on for the next ten minutes or so, because you're going to want to give today's song your undivided attention. Sure, yesterday's Damian Murdoch Trio song wasn't exactly straightforward, but today things are about to get a whole lot proggier.

     Norwegian band Leprous knows a thing or two about peddling prog, having been doing it for more than a decade now. I only heard about them upon the release of their latest disc, 2013's Coal, but I've been sampling their back catalogue too, and I can tell you that there's some tasty stuff.

     Tasty stuff like today's song, "Forced Entry", a ten-minute epic from 2011's Bilateral. This one runs the gamut, packing big, arena-y metal choruses, heavier prog parts, and even heavier death and black metal-type parts into its six hundred and twenty seconds. Clear your schedule and spin it.
