KULT IKON’s music is slow, heavy, and introspective. It occupies a space between post-metal and progressive doom with long mid-tempo pieces. The music ebbs and flows from prettiness to heaviness, draped across unexpected structures, creating compelling listening.
Praises for “Black Iron Prison”:
“Black Iron Prison is a superbly made album with a contemporary sound that also offers a more CINEMATIC vision throughout and allows Kult Ikon to create their own style of intense and brilliantly played Instrumental Post-Metal that leaves you wanting more. This is a stunning release that should allow Kult Ikon to enhance their reputation further within the Post-Metal community.”
- Outlaws of The Sun
“Scraps of sonic feedback flash at us like the colors of a kaleidoscope as the song begins. The guitar serves as our guide through this grim, mysterious subterranean world. The drumming patterns and chord progression seem to be contemplating the strange symphony of the deep, with all its chaos and majesty. Then the big guns get called in and things really begin to grind.”
