Ever wondered what happens when heavy metal meets a comic book cosmic apocalypse? Montreal’s riff-wielding maestros, Mad Parish, just dropped a sonic meteor with their new video “An Age To Quell”—and holy guacamole, it’s catchier than a black hole’s grip! Off their freshly minted prog-metal opus “The Dust of Forever” (out now, folks!), this track’s a wild ride: galloping rhythms, double bass drum fury, and a chorus so singable, Ozzy himself might nod in approval.
 
“Pop” metal, you ask? Don’t panic—the band’s quick to clarify: “Yeah, it’s got a chorus that sticks like duct tape on a spacesuit, but trust us, those guitar riffs? They’ll punch your eardrums into next week.” And let’s be real, when’s the last time a “pop” song made you want to duel imaginary dragons with a air guitar?
Plot Twist: This isn’t just a song. It’s another chapter in Mad Parish’s intergalactic soap opera about immortality, cosmic doom, and… comic books? Yep, they’ve gone full “Marvel meets Metalocalypse” with a limited-edition comic, “The Experience Hunter Chronicles”. Because why not pair shredding solos with sketched supervillains?
 
Why Your Ears Need This:
- NWOBHM vibes meets prog-rock braininess—like Iron Maiden and Rush jamming in a wormhole.
- Arena-sized choruses that’ll have you belting lyrics in the shower (or your neighbor’s yard).
- Comic book lore so rich, it makes Dune look like a pamphlet.
 
Hot Take: If Camel, Rush, and Rainbow had a lovechild at a laser light show, this’d be it. “An Age To Quell” isn’t just a track—it’s a time machine to when metal was loud, solos were shameless, and concept albums required a damn flowchart.

The Dust of Forever: Your New Obsession Dropped January 31, 2025
 
This ain’t just an album—it’s a freakin’ universe:
- 21 tracks of prog-metal wizardry (1h10m of eargasm, no skips).
- Vinyl, CD, and a comic book rarer than a polite mosh pit.
- Bandcamp Exclusive: Snag the loot HERE: https://madparish1.bandcamp.com/album/the-dust-of-forever
 
Tracklist Tease: From “Prophecy” (1:30 of ominous vibes) to the titanic closer “The Dust of Forever” (5:11 of glory), it’s a buffet of riffs, synths, and lyrics about… asteroid prisons? Sure, why not.
 
Critics Are Losing Their Minds:
- Decibel Magazine: “Mad Parish didn’t just write lyrics—they built a comic empire.”
- Melodic.net: “Ozzy-esque vocals meets prog that doesn’t make you yawn? Sign me up!”
- Hellfire Magazin: “8/10 Hellfire points—Canadians nailed it!”
 
Why should you care? Because Mad Parish isn’t just playing music—they’re welding together heavy metal, sci-fi lore, and comic art into something bonkersly unique. In a world of TikTok bands, these guys are crafting epics. “The Dust of Forever” isn’t background noise—it’s a headphones-on, lights-off, let’s-get-lost experience. And that comic? It’s the cherry on a molten metal cake.
 
Final Transmission: Hit play, grab the comic, and join the cosmic cavalry. Your speakers might rebel, but your soul’ll thank you.
 
P.S. If your neck isn’t sore by track 5, you’re doing it wrong. 🤘
