Focused on being a hard hitting power trio that stands out in a highly saturated pool of same-sounding progressive metal, Uncanny's debut album started to emerge in 2020. At the center of this 8 track album, is the larger-than-life baritone guitar and an angelic/demonic lead guitar emulsified by a Meshuggah-loving worship drummer. Starting out as a trio jamming in 2013, while still looking for a singer and a bass player they started amplifying the baritone with both a guitar and bass amp to compensate for the lack of low end. After a short while they forwent the idea of adding any more members, forcing themselves to create instrumental music that'll make sure you won't miss neither vocals nor bass. The result is a dynamic debut album, consisting of cut-the-crap in-your-face metal as well as prog eposes, with loads of room sound and no use of drum triggers or samples at all. This is Uncanny – a trio making sounds from the uncanny valley that are both beautiful and ugly, awesome and awful, familiar yet unfamiliar all at the same time.
