⚰️ PORTREAD
Portread is an Estonian symphonic metal band formed in Tallinn in 2013. Their music is characterised by heavy guitar riffs, melodic orchestrations and powerful female vocals. Portread’s 2026 album “The Unthinkable” is a mature, multilayered work of Estonian progressive and melodic metal. Its compositions combine aggressive guitar riffs, atmospheric synths and expansive vocals, exploring the darker sides of human nature and dystopian visions of the future. The album was created at the Sügis Productions recording studio under the guidance of Are Kangus.
