Vertical

Vertical is a Swedish progressive metal force known for weaving intricate rhythms and electronic textures into headbanging-worthy soundscapes. Emerging in the late 2010s, this mysterious collective (who keep their identities refreshingly low-key) crafts concept-driven tracks like "Telepathy" and "The Evil Machine" that feel equal parts cerebral and visceral. Their recent releases, including the pulsing "Equoreaction" and dystopian-themed "Alpha," showcase a knack for blending technical precision with cinematic atmosphere, all while collaborating with visual artists to create immersive live shows. Though they’re tight-lipped about their backstories, Vertical lets their music—like the brooding "Black Palm"—do the talking, earning them a dedicated following in Europe’s progressive metal underground.
