When it comes to playthroughs, there are two kinds: the snoozethrough (self-explanatory), and the slamthrough (heads are crushed by a serious amount of musicianship). With that, we present to you the latter - in the form of Canadian progressive metallers TRILATERAL and their song 'Arbitrarium' from their critically-acclaimed album, Elliptic Orbits.

In this second of three playthroughs, bassist Sam Smit demonstrates the dexterity, prowess, and sophisticated-brutality that have become the hallmarks of the TRILATERAL experience.

Elliptic Orbits was released March 11th independently. Purchases can be made via the band's bandcamp page.

TRILATERAL is a multidimensional progressive metal band with influences as diverse as their music.

A trinity of adept and nonconformist musicians, the band are not easily categorized into one simple genre, but that's exactly what keeps hungry, forward-thinking metal fans interested in their unique sound. Although they integrate various fundamental elements of multiple genres and styles, TRILATERAL delivers their neural depth without mercy to shatter audiences' expectations of what modern prog metal is truly capable of.

With their unique blend of brutality and jazz-fusion, the band manages to create a vast soundscape within every track that is not typically associated with metal.
