Washington DC based modern progressive metallers Iris Divine is streaming their debut full length Karma Sown in its entirety here. The album was produced by the band, engineered by Drew Mazurek and Farhad Hossain, mixed by Mazurek, and mastered by Brian J. Anthony, and the cover art was done by Kris Combs and executed by Visual Decay. It is out March 31, 2015 via Sensory Records.

Over recent years, the Washington DC-area act has amassed a diehard following through regional live performances, but on their first full-length release, Karma Sown, Iris Divine dives headfirst into the international scene through an incredibly layered and expansive recording. Though a mere trio, the band unleashes waves of dynamic, top-tier progressive metal with dark, crunching undertones and intense storylines which unify the entire Karma Sown album, all the way through the cover art concept and overall delivery. Embodied by vocalist/guitarist Navid Rashid, drummer/programmer Kris Combs and bassist Brian Dobbs, Iris Divine’s glorious debut full-length, Karma Sown, is a triumph of a debut album, immediate and memorable but revealing layers and depth upon repeated listens.
