Ghosts of Glaciers

**Ghosts of Glaciers** is a Denver-based instrumental post-metal trio known for crafting heavy, immersive soundscapes that blend crushing sludge riffs with atmospheric post-rock textures. Formed in 2009, the band—comprising guitar, bass, and drums—creates music that feels both expansive and claustrophobic, channeling themes of environmental collapse and existential weight through their dynamic compositions. Their work, including albums like *The Greatest Burden* (2017) and *Eternal* (2020), often features seismic shifts between melodic introspection and tectonic heaviness, earning them comparisons to acts like Pelican and Russian Circles.

With releases like *Leviathan* and *Abyssal Declivity*, Ghosts of Glaciers leans into glacial pacing and apocalyptic tones, using instrumental storytelling to evoke crumbling landscapes and humanity’s fleeting footprint. Their meticulous attention to atmosphere and texture has made them a standout in the post-metal scene, appealing to fans of both cerebral headphone listens and visceral live performances.
