The Review:

Originally released in 2004 under the name WithoutEnd, changed its name to WithoutEnding and under the ProgRock Records ever growing roster of talent. Their brand of music borders on progressive metal and neo-prog. Before that scares you off, they tread more in the prog metal camp with similarities to Fates Warning and early Pain of Salvation.

Thankfully they’re not one of those ultra annoying technical metal bands that sound so very cold in delivery. WithoutEnding has a very warm feeling, in fact I might dare to say a soulful feeling. Now they’re not 100% original in style but they know how to delivery powerful metallic sounds with emotion driven lyrics. I hope they continue onward and grasp more influences and possible come into their own as a force to be reckoned with.
