No Clean Singing
Video Premiere
The sound of the song (End My Night) is vast and earthshaking, and it’s beautiful but intensely heartbreaking. The music builds in intensity and panoramic scope as the minutes pass, climbing toward a crest of emotional power, and as it ascends, its immersive effect becomes overwhelming."

Upcoming Metal Releases
"This Chilean doom/death solo project continues to execute at the top of its class: truly emotional metal with powerful vocals and haunting melodies. I really can't get enough of the lead guitar work here." - Ted Nubel
Metal Temple
10/10 Score
"Per Aspera Ad Astra is a stunning album, masterfully created music. RISE TO THE SKY is a band that may just well do that due to his immense talent. There is a haunting depth that stands out throughout this album, and definitely puts you in a mood of longing." - Laura Glover
Metal Epidemic
5/5 Score
"Each and all songs feel like Sergio was taking out his pain of loss and walking the path of healing at the same time. We have lyrics with pure grief but at the same time the presence, through melodies, of a hidden light that leads to the return to life."- Martha Skourteli
Angry Metal Guy
3.5 / 5 Score (very good)
"Per Aspera Ad Astra is classic Rise to the Sky delivering exactly what it’s so good at delivering: affecting, atmospheric, beautiful death-doom metal. Unsurprisingly, it is reminiscent of past releases but takes good steps towards creating its own identity and advancing the Rise to the Sky formula in a good direction. This is thick, heavy, weepy metal perfect for those autumn days we’ll soon be experiencing." -Twelve

10/10 Score
"Per Aspera Ad Astra comes from a grief-stricken place and that is something that resonates throughout. It’s an incredibly expressive and sensitive album but one with heavy death and doom at its core. It just so happens that Rise to the Sky twists melody around those heavier elements with such ease." - Carl "The Disc" Fisher
Metal Temple (2nd review)
10/10 Score
“Sergio’s vocal style is deep and even menacing but its also both pain filled and cathartic….this guy has the ability to display such a wide range of emotions with a deep, brutal style and his music is all the better for it. As both listened to in one setting or on a piecemeal basis, this album comes together each time without fail.“- Justin Wittenmeier
Broken Tomb Magazine
10/10 Score
"En general, este álbum es uno de los álbumes más brillantes este año, aunque es un álbum ambientador, Rise To The Sky debe ser conocido hoy en día. Con cada tema poderoso e impresionante que cubre el álbum, puedes decir que es muy atmosférico y emocional. Cuando lo escuches en la oscuridad, cierra los ojos y te dará algunas imágenes mientras cada pulso dentro de ti se convierte en uno con el viaje musical sentimental en el que Sergio te ha puesto. Una maldita obra maestra de la música que desearía que todos tuvieran el poder de entender. " - Joshua
9/10 Score
Metal Temple
"Sergio's vocals continue to impress. He gets frighteningly deep on these songs, his voice coming from a physical place but also an intangible emotional anchor as well. The man himself said this album was made in trying times and dedicated to his father who passed away…..his pain, his longing can definitely not only be heard but felt" - Justin "Witty City" Wittenmeier
Funeral Doom Friday
Metal Injection
"What makes Let Me Drown With You so effective is the songwriting. Acoustic guitars and orchestral arrangements make each track an exquisite dirge. Solo contributor Sergio G has crafted a gripping, emotionally palpable atmosphere. You can’t help but be moved by this music." - Grant Skelton
About Rise to the Sky
One-Man Doom Metal
I want to deliver emotional, strong, and honest Doom Metal. Everything I do points in the direction of improving the quality of the music, this is my number one priority and I intend to do every possible effort to accomplish that.
Rise to the Sky plays mainly Atmospheric/Death Doom metal, although the sound has evolved with each album or release.
