Dissona is a progressive metal band from the South Suburbs of Chicago. They have spent much of their time carefully carving out their desired sound by writing songs that embody various styles and emotions. They are known for their diverse sound, energetic stage performance, and emotionally powerful lyrical content based on a wide variety of themes including emotion, sentience, humanity, nature, life, sexuality, corruption, etc.
Dissona's follow up to their critically-acclaimed 2012 release, Paleopneumatic is the culmination of years of agonizing, hard work and consequently their most fully realized production to date. With Paleopneumatic, however, Dissona seem to “get it.” Yet another foray into the neurotic abyss known as self-production, guitarist Matt Motto labored endlessly searching for that fabled “perfect mix.” Though it does not necessarily exist by any stretch of the imagination, the warm, resonant sound produced throughout Paleopneumatic certainly complements the interesting and dynamic journey through each track.
Paleopneumatic is highly engrossing from beginning to end, almost as if it’s paralleling life itself, from the chaotic entrance, the peaks and valleys that comprise the entirety of human existence, and the somber, slow extinguishment as we are relieved of our breath. The way these four members work together to craft such an interesting album that can be analyzed from different perspectives should be enough to engage longtime progressive fans or intrigue newcomers to the style.
