Ihlo are a progressive metal band based in the UK. In 2019 they released their debut album 'Union', a 53 minute journey that explores the relationships we share as people and the emotional challenges that come with them. The album received rave reviews through the underground progressive communities on a global scale, featured in PROG magazine and has since seen the band step up from a small bedroom collaboration between vocalist Andy Robison and guitarist Phil Monro to a full live band.
Though the foundation for their music relies on the heavy sound associated with metal music, the influences from electronic and pop music cannot be ignored. Each track is stacked with huge melodies and hooks that draw you deeper into the lush wall-of-sound production that has been meticulously crafted throughout the 3 years of the album's creation. Ihlo are unafraid to pull you into their deceptively groovy sound.
With influences ranging from progressive staples such as Dream Theater, Porcupine Tree, Devin Townsend and TesseracT, they have the sharp modern metal edge necessary to stand out amongst the crowd. Ihlo are a fresh and exciting sound in the scene that are not to be missed.
Now in the tail end of 2020, they are set to release a small, yet highly charged live EP release from the confines of lockdown life. Entitled 'In Stasis', this 22 minute audio/video EP features sounds from their acclaimed debut album, as well as new pieces never before heard from upcoming work.
It saddens me that a band with such potential and epic songwriting are so criminally underappreciated. The youtube algorithm is a cruel mistress.
I hope they keep making music. The drumming in Triumph and the outro to Coalescence is next level.
Said it a thousand times, I'll say it once more - one of the best debuts in (prog) history...
Sorry, but the best debut in prog history is Animals as Leaders.
@Salamander Man
The best debut in prog history is Animals as Leaders. No crying...
@Salamander Man
Not really. I adore everything in that album, in particular "tempting time", "on impulse" and "price of everything". Don't bet: gambling is addicting...
My personal favorite debut is Sundowning by Sleep Token
Nah, it's Native Construct
37:00 is a big moment in the history of prog.
fucking goosebumps all over.
“Hollow”followed by “ Triumph“are you f ing kidding me? Goosebumps!
wtf how have i only heard of you guys today? The drop in "hollow" around 3-4 mins in sent me chills running down my spine, i love the synthwork in all of the songs too, the arps at the end of parhelion are so good, the final track is epic too.
slowly ingesting my computer speakers piece by piece in hopes that my body will biologically synthesize a new album from you
23:00 made me well up and cry. Publicly. On the tram. Awesome !!
The album that made me love Prog again.
your hashtag is brilliant #Ihloveyou
There is so much hidden, great djenty bands / albums / tracks, including this one, of course
That chord at 52:19 is gergeous, btw.
Fuck, this is really good. So glad I found this
First 30 seconds smells like two first full albums of TesseracT trying to fight for their dominance at once.
Who won?
@@progfoxmusic Ihlo.
whao that sound wonderfull, nice work, really fan!
Excellent album.
The drums are extraordinary, the melodies stick in to your ears like a glue.
Best records i've heard recently:
- Persefone --> Spiritual Migration
- Ihlo --> Union
Absolute stunning album for a debut. Been on repeat for a week now and just hits the feels in all the sweet places. Goosebumps
This is a masterpiece, just out of the blue. How. Why. Who are you. Bravo.
Just some guys in their bedrooms with a bit of free time ❤️
It reminds me the Tesseract's Altered State album... same atmosphere. Wonderfull job!!
One too, that second song vocal line is almost textbook origin. But for some reason i dont give a shit. So many bands try the same djent formula and have failed. These guys actually make great fucking music. I dont care this sound isnt original anymore
Every song is an earworm, good lord.
You guys deserve to hit a crowd. Honestly can not wait for that to happen. I've been listening to this album regularly for the past few months, and it really hold up against some of the largest bands in prog today. That is no small task, and you guys nailed it.
Totally agree with you bro on everything you said !!
Is there something like Stoned Meadow Of Doom, but for Prog? We need to spam this.
"Triumph" reminds me SYL - Almost Again
Great album
The song title was a bit of a nod to the Devin-esque sound of it :)
I didn't enjoy djent this much since VOLA debut album
Overall a great album... but that first song is sooooo badass!
Estoy obsesionado con este album
I would literally gave my life to listen a collab with this and Ashe's voice. Despite all mentioning the Altered Stateish sound (my fav album from TSS btw) this debut is phenomenal, fuck bro why did i didn't have listened this joyita before
Fantastic debut guys, really impressive!
Debut album containing the wisdom and the sentiment of a whole career! At least impressed!!!
Triumph is just gorgeous.
Absolutely fantastic album. Your melodies feel natural, keep it up
I agree. It deserved the second place award for best debut prog album
This is beyond impressive. An amazing debut album, keep up the good work!
I'm late to the party, but this is amazing music. It's like TesseracT's Altered State meets Periphery II, but with its own identity as well.
hi guys, i discover you this album is just a magic monster, u ave exelent skills and power i want more !!! its ur faults lol u are too goods lol
ready for next album :) !!!
Right up my alley, great work and I'll be pleased to listen to this hundreds of times in the next few years
My reaction would be in the same vain as a lot of these reactions. How? Who? What the... Doesn't matter! Amazing stuff!! Ordered Union + the live CD. Which will both arrive in feb 2021.... But that's ok, I can keep coming back to this stream! Thanks guys!
Guys, this is gold. Seriously impressive work. Greetings from Italy!
One of my favourite, if not my favourite, album of 2019 ! I've listened to this on repeat for months hahaha
Love it! Probably listened to both new recordings several times in the last week.
Great music, guys! New fan here! :)
Thanks! Glad to have you on board! ❤️
i've listened to this a lot of times, pls come to Cluj-Napoca, Romania

Wooooow
Would love to hear your music on Qobuz so I can get the uncompressed (compressed by YT) versions of the tracks. Really good stuff!
The song Hollow…. So good…
Gnoosic brought me here...let's see if our ai overlord was right
1:17 sounds like Linkin Park Chorus
hello ihlo
10:19 is so epic
It's like listening to the best album of TesseracT. I hope you develop a more personal style, because this is promising.
The harmonic progressions are in no way similar to Tesseract tbh
@@calamityalix_tfg
I'm talking about sound.
@@ultracritical2997 yes me too, and apart from the guitar work i don't see anything here similar to Tesseract
@@calamityalix_tfg
Apart from the guitar? Metal is based on guitar...
@@ultracritical2997 Yeah, this is really different to Tesseract.
Ok, finished listening the album, now what do I do with my life?
Listen to it again and then tell a friend.
♥️
Vinyl release PLEASE
How do you pronounce the band's name?
Awesome album!
It's "Eye lo" 💪🏻
Lyrics please.
You can find all the lyrics at ihlo.bandcamp.com
Ihlo says trans rights!
the colors are actually inspired by Hyper Light Drifter but yea i get the confusion
50 minutes of original music with the most unoriginal and unremarkable vocal lines smeared all over it. Thanks, I guess.
Taking the troll bait. For the algorithm. Your ears must be caked in wax, have a q-tip.
"Sky hunterrr, beard tamer."
