Ben Leathley Whilst I could compare i am no hero to many of post-rock's greats and Underwater Cities to the genre-defining albums, I would be doing them a disservice. They create such a powerful and unique sound in a genre brimming with bands and lots of monotone albums. Underwater Cities is none of that; it's extremely emotional, hopeful, epic, and just plain beautiful. One of my favourite albums (and bands!) in post-rock. Favorite track: All lines are missing.

Thony Ekström Awesome band, nice atmospheres and nice sound overall. And Sunny Days is the favorite! Favorite track: Sunny days.

Weeble Wobble Some beautiful songs, very Mono-esq. My only complaint would be that the album sounds a little safe, a little more intensity at times would have taken it to a new level. The drums are a bit of a weak spot to me. But pretty great overall. First album is good too!

Martin SK A lovely instrumental record that combines gripping melancholia with powerful walls of sound. Favorite track: Sunny days.

    Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    The second album "Underwater Cities" by I Am No Hero, a quaternion Post-Rock band from Athens, Greece, achieved a perfect fusion of silence and violence, sadness and grandeur with five instrumental songs as 40 minutes in total. The typical Post-Rock style of crystal-clear musical notes and vigorous musical walls, together with the introverted, steady drumming, make the sound along with the emotion evoked by the sound bloom piece by piece like vivid petals, also advance layer by layer like billowy wave. Gripping details, epic atmosphere, magnificent structure, this is "Underwater Cities", an extremely emotional and beautiful work full of memories and aspirations.

    To achieve the best listening experience, I Am No Hero has done sound remix for the Vinyl version of "Underwater Cities" in 2022. Vrijheid Records will present the black splashing Vinyl with transparent emerald belt, limited to 200 copies.
