REVIEWS
"Haunting and somehow nostalgic, Myriad Drone produce an enigmatic form of cinematic post-rock. While the genre has become bloated and somewhat formulaic, Myriad Drone manage to avoid being part of this over-saturation through immensely compelling compositions and impeccable interpretation of melody and movement."
- Ben Read (Ulcerate, Bridge Burner)

Myriad Drone - Arka Morgana
Release date: October 18, 2019
"A select few albums have confounded me to the very core and Myriad Drone definitely ticks all the boxes to deliver an invigorating masterpiece with 'Arka Morgana'. There is a certain immediacy to the tracks that keeps me at the end of my seat yet the meandering and abstract undertone helps ease my anxiety to a large extent. A major shoutout goes to the incredibly talented Shane Mulholland who amazes on so many levels, including his pristine work with the ethereal vocals and production of this album. An epic feel of the artwork makes me want to stare at the piece of beauty for hours while experiencing monumental tides of emotions paired with unexpected sonic rabbit-holes that are sprinkled so subtly throughout every track."
“I feel like I’m lying on a hill in the dark, with a sky full of stars, pondering our collective experience in the universe. This is one of those albums that touches your soul. “
