TIKTAALIKA
Gods Of Pangaea INSIDEOUTMUSIC
A masterpiece of modern prog metal with a knowing nod to the giants of the past.
One half of Haken’s twin guitar muscle since 2008, Charlie Griffiths released his first solo album, 2022’s Tiktaalika, under his own name. He may have reappropriated that moniker for this follow-up, but the core band remains the same – Griffiths plus Haken bassist Conner Green and prolific drummer Darby Todd – while Gods Of Pangaea utilises the vocal talents of Daniël de Jongh, Vladimir Lalic, Rody Walker and Thomas Giles across its seven tracks.
