Aghora

Band founded by guitarist Santiago Dobles. The debut album 'Aghora' (with Sean Malone, Sean Reinert and Danishta Rivero) is widely praised; the later album 'Formless' features lineup changes including bassist Alan Goldstein and vocalist Diana Serra and received mixed reactions.

Founded by Santiago Dobles; early lineup and contributors mentioned in reviews include Sean Malone (bass), Sean Reinert (drums), Danishta Rivero (vocals).

The reviews praise Aghora's self-titled debut as a hyper-technical progressive/jazz-metal masterpiece while the later album Formless earns respect for performance but criticism for losing jazz and seventies prog influences. Reviewers frequently highlight exceptional musicianship, especially bass and drums.

For:Fans of technical progressive metal, jazz-fusion listeners, and musicians who value virtuosity.
