"Northlane's latest record "Obsidian" is a contender for metalcore album of the year, to put it simply. It's absolutely filled to the brim with unique sounds and musical ideas that beg the listener to become completely enveloped in the atmosphere. Fans of the heavier side of the group won't be disappointed; there are some solid ground-shaking breakdowns in here. The most special moments, however, are the ones that move away from the classic metalcore structure. "Obsidian" is so diverse and so engaging that fans and new listeners will have a tough time choosing which parts they love the most. To sum it all up, Northlane has put out their best work to date".
