Don't let the name fool you, Tetrafusion is not a fusion band (however, it is four guys so at least part of the name is accurate). Tetrafusion's debut album
Absolute Zero is as if Dream Theater met Muse had a baby, and Porcupine Tree and Tool had a baby, and by some miracle, those two babies met and had another baby. It is just plain incredible and I dare any prog-metal fan to give it a listen and not find something to like.
Absolute Zero is actually a concept album, sans vocals, which you may be thinking is impossible but hear them out. the album follows Earth from "The Beginning" to "The End" with physical properties like "Gravity" and "Inertia" in between. Even if concept albums aren't your thing, just listen, because there's alot to be appreciated in between some crunchy riffs, pounding drums, delightful keys, and technical bass playing. This album, coming out at the same time as Scale The Summit's debut, is deserts and canyons better as well as more outgoing, driving, and progressive. If it wasn't already amazing enough as it is, it is self-released which makes it 10x more incredible in my mind.
