Cloud - Deus Ex Machina (Full Album)

Cloud - Deus Ex Machina (Full Album) Cloud is an Instrumental Progressive Rock band, from Bloomsburg, PA. Deus Ex Machina is a six-song concept album that focuses on the hubristic nature of mankind, the conflict we all assume that we are invulnerable to, as well as the aftermath that ultimately follows. Cloud begins their sophomore record with “Part One: Before the Fall”, which sets the tone for the remainder of the album: dark and heavy, albeit melodic and poignant. The second track, “Part Two: The Ruin of Man”, begins with clean, tranquil guitars and closes with an explosion of heavy riffs, psychedelic solos, and monstrous drums.

The album’s title track “Deus Ex Machina” follows and opens with thunderous tribal drums, which symbolize the ritualistic summoning of ‘The God from the Machine,’ who is the only hope for the human race. Track four, “Our Darkest Hour”, slows the album down to a doomy yet melodic overture and represents the primordial human belief that when death is all but certain, we always put our faith into a higher power. The penultimate track, “As the Dust Settles”, is the band’s gift to longtime fans—the direct spawn of “Grim Reefer” and “Cosmic Carousal”, as it were. Finally, the album closes with “Neogenesis”, which along with being the album’s most upbeat track, also contains an obvious and intentional nod to some of the pioneers of stoner metal.
