Their first two albums Leitmotif in 2001, and El Cielo in 2002, were a bit better at pushing the envelope than their newest album, Catch Without Arms (released 6/21/05), as they incorporated instruments and sounds out of the typical guitar, drum, and bass box.
Dredg has been classified as “metal” in previous reviews, but this album does not seem heavy enough to follow that mold as there is no screaming, and the guitars are melodic and flowing.
