Moments – IOEarth – (2012)
Genre: Prog Rock

Yeah, I know the album sleeve makes it look like the band are called Dearth, and so you might expect a Doom Metal or DSBM band, but no: they're called IOEarth (why I have no idea) and though I've heard the odd track through my playlists this is the first time I'm going to be checking out a full album. And as it turns out, it's pretty damn good. I realise I do know one track, the Battle of Britain-inspired “Finest Hour”, which utilises so many Churchill samples that really it should have stood some chance of becoming a hit single. Needless to say, it did not. Very good album though; I'll be looking forward to hearing more from this band.
