(Wisconsin Metal)<\/p>\n<p>With their second musical release, after their debut EP \u201cUnity\u201d in March of 2014, Pangaea explores the Metal genre in different ways than lots of progressive bands. This EP has tasteful vocals, complicated drumming, diverse breakdowns, keys, and dual lead guitar passages. Not only does this EP hit you right in the musical ears you\u2019ve always wanted, but it is a concept album that flows with the idea of their name. The title track off of this EP, \u201cRoots\u201d is an orchestrated masterpiece, with many different instruments and melodic counterparts. It is an instrumental track full of genius acoustic guitar lines, violin accompaniment, piano lines, and really brings the listener into a peaceful state of mind. Songs off this EP consist of:<\/p>\n<p>00:00 &#8211; Old Soul<br \/>\n0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=EnoGwDYMvsY\">6:34<\/a>\u00a0&#8211; The Balance<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=EnoGwDYMvsY\">12:35<\/a>\u00a0&#8211; Gaia: Separation<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=EnoGwDYMvsY\">14:11<\/a>\u00a0&#8211; Gaia: Reconciliation<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=EnoGwDYMvsY\">22:50<\/a>\u00a0&#8211; Roots<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=EnoGwDYMvsY\">27:27<\/a>\u00a0&#8211; Aokigahara<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/EnoGwDYMvsY\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>\nThis band is influenced by bands such as Between The Buried And Me, Architects, Veil of Maya, Meshuggah, Protest The Hero, The Contortionist, Norma Jean, The Dillinger Escape Plan, August Burns Red, and Killswitch Engage.
