Apocryphal Gravity is an album by Swiss post rock group hubris., released on April 3. Forty five minutes long, the album has seven tracks: Intro, Beyond Styx Part 1, Beyond Styx Part 2, Aphrodite Terra, Doom Mons, Deimos To Phobos Part 1 and Deimos To Phobos Part 2. A very beautiful, sensitive and calm album, Apocryphal Gravity is full of overwhelming and magnificent melodies, brilliantly standardized at the soft nucleus of an ardently proficient, moving, sincere, colossal and infinite sonorous universe.

The style of hubris., although somewhat simple, is vehemently characteristic, softly charismatic, sensibly charming and ostensibly profound, permeated by an almost somnolent dynamic, that deeply revolves around the pure and pragmatic ordeal of an imponderable horizon of nuances. Exceedingly linear, each track seems to be the continuation of its predecessor, so the listener is deliberately directed by a formidable sense of continuity. This quality essentially maintains the fluidity of the music overflowing in a marvelous cycle of torrential tranquility, as you feel that you are listening one very long and extensive track. Nonetheless, this impression can be rather subjective, as some songs are indeed punctuated by pronounced, elongated and audaciously creative rhythmic variations, that seems to play in the fields of alternative rock a little.   

Apocryphal Gravity is a tremendously great and fantastic masterpiece. A true and overwhelming lesson on originality and creativity, hubris. has a strong and well-designed singular style, exceedingly developed and marvelously conceived. A wonderful state of the art work, the harmonies are embellished by gentle and splendorous universes of monumental melodic traces, surrounded by profoundly proverbial intonations, where all elements are abundantly full of life, density and poetic intensity. Standardized by colorful sidelines of extraordinary sensibility, hubris. delineates through the music a majestically singular perception of a correlated imaginary universe, filtered in a graceful sonorous form.     

A splendid and aggrandizing state of the art work, Apocryphal Gravity certainly is one of the most important releases of the year. A monumental record with exceptional qualities, it is a milestone in the history of post rock. With an astounding and impeccable degree of artistic lucidity, and the additional abilities of an extraordinary musical outline, hubris. has surpassed each and every landmark ever to exist in the history of the genre. A true voracious icon of originality, this marvelous group arose from the elements of its own outstanding sonorous sinergy to take the underground by storm. And this work certainly will enter into the records of the genre history. There are no doubts concerning this matter.
