Ihlo
Five years in the making, ‘Legacy’ marks a major step forward for Ihlo, capturing their growth from rising newcomers to a confident force in the UK modern prog scene.
Written collaboratively by Andy Robison, Phil Monro & Clark McMenemy, the album blends remote writing with focused studio sessions. The result is a dynamic follow-up to 2019’s ‘Union’ - an acclaimed debut that topped Bandcamp’s Progressive Metal chart & won Ihlo praise across the prog world.
Recorded in part at The Arch Studios in Southport - a stunning space housed within a 140-year-old restored church – ‘Legacy’ benefits from the studio’s breathtaking acoustics, which lend the drums an organic immediacy. The album presents ten new tracks that drift between shimmering ambience & tightly wound rhythmic propulsion. Where ‘Union’ hinted at Ihlo’s influences, ‘Legacy’ speaks in their own voice: ambitious without excess, richly melodic yet never predictable.
Lyrically, the album casts a wary eye on the near-future - one in which technological advancement feels increasingly hollow, its progress governed by profit rather than purpose.
