Of Ash and Oak

by Lauren Vieira

supported by

Boomer Roberts Entrancing, beautiful, and haunting melodies in every single track. Possibly my favorite solo instrumental piano album ever. Wonderful dynamics and tempo nuances throughout, not to mention the songwriting and compositional finesse on display. And of course the vocals on Prayer are just lovely, that track is the pinnacle of the album's whole mood for me, it actually somehow works stupidly well as the only vocal track on the album. Favorite track: Prayer.

Nic Gruhn Gorgeous, emotional Piano compositions with a cinematic touch. I really hope to hear this in a psychodelic Leonardo DiCaprio Movie one day! Favorite track: Adrift.

Marco Simard Beautiful and relaxing music. The one vocal track is lovely and the rest is great too! Favorite track: Prayer.

Prayer Staring at the sun Black spots in her vision Leaves throughout her hair Earth between her toes Darkness destroys her A process born of hurt Scent of blue skies A salve for aging wounds She will run away She will walk so far Until she is gone And the stars reclaim her smile

This band is unreal. I hopped on the Dreadnought train after catching them live this past summer '22. I was completely floored by their performance. Their music demands repeated listens, at least for me. But it's so rewarding, and I'm just constantly amazed as I go through their catalog. WE MUST PROTECT THIS BAND AT ALL COSTS :) meshugganner

A shockingly good debut. This is one of the most unique, original, and impressively ambitious metal albums I've ever heard. I can almost guarantee you've never heard anything quite like Dreadnought. Kadin Wisniewski
