Employed To Serve 'The Warmth of a Dying Sun'
Employed To Serve's second album, 'The Warmth of a Dying Sun', released in 2017, marks a significant evolution in the band's sound. While retaining their signature abrasive and chaotic style, the album introduces more dynamic and slower, sludgy grooves, drawing comparisons to bands like Will Haven and Pantera. Tracks such as "Void Ambition" and "Good for Nothing" exemplify this shift, blending rapid guitar work with heavy, beatdown sections.
The album's production is notably cohesive, with each track distinct yet seamlessly flowing into the next. The inclusion of short segues between songs enhances the listening experience, making it a compelling journey from start to finish. Employed To Serve's ability to balance intensity with melody and their commitment to positive themes amidst heavy music are evident throughout the album.
