With 2019's "Rhizomes Of Insanity," France's Fractal Universe created one of the most musically, lyrically, and emotionally complex and compelling progressive metal works of the twenty-first century. The band toured the record hard, joining heavyweights Obscura in February/March of 2020, making for one of the last tours in the world pre-pandemic, and in doing so sated their faithful while winning legions of new followers. With its successor, The Impassable Horizon, they have gone even deeper, effortlessly following the trajectory they set themselves on to create an album that is riveting from start to finish. "We wanted to keep developing our musical personality and the natural sound we managed to get on 'Rhizomes'," says drummer Clément Denys. "It's a very versatile and complex album. Musically speaking, you will find catchy songs which are really direct, progressive and mysterious ballads with epic saxophone solos, and technical songs with intricate riffing." Elaborates vocalist/guitarist/saxophonist Vince Wilquin, "despite the record being even more diverse, dynamic and including more clean vocals than its predecessor, the overall atmosphere is also slightly darker and more melancholic." And with the introduction of Wilquin's newly honed saxophone skills to their live set, alongside working with Gojira's Christian Andreu on their stage scenery and production, once the band return to the road they are sure to be an unmissable act.

Lyrics:
Our eyeless words
Cast those falls away
Onto wholeness

Aporetic
We dwell beneath the full sails
Of expectant concerns

Caught into the wormhole
Of interfering spherical scenes
We have embraced illusion
Since the very point of dusk

The cold absences
That structure my skin

Uncompleted protoplasma
Struggling for void
Pseudopodial agony

And the more we stray further from the irony of dawn
The more the eclipse of existential shades fades away

Caught into the wormhole
Of interfering spherical scenes
We have embraced illusion
Since the very point of dusk
