Deep Dive Hypostasis. The Greek prog band that disappeared for eight years and came back swinging.
Athens four-piece returns from an eight-year silence with Mirror, the second single off their debut album. Production this clean has no business sounding this dark.

Deep Dive Cult of Luna. Somewhere Along the Highway.
Umeå, 2006. Cult of Luna made a post-metal album so heavy it crushes you and so beautiful it breaks you. Twelve-minute tracks that earn every second.
