Revelations Beyond Insanity
level 15 Cosmicism   90/100
I really love this one - almost as much as Coffin Nail's The Hanged Man. Infernal Curse's playing is great, and the recording is wonderful. The end result is a feeling of endless stone-block halls in darkness underground with clanging on metal coming from an unknown direction - a scene that lasts for eternity. Great work.   Feb 20, 2024

level 15 Cosmicism   85/100
Good war metal on this one. I like how the album art engages the war-metal formula but goes in its own direction just a little. I'm not a fan of the logo. Musically, nothing seems like a flaw; I'll just look forward to a future album like this but with some leveling up.   Feb 20, 2024

1st of all, you need patience for this music; that's a warning. If you're strapped in, then I think you'll receive the same huge payoffs I did. This is a wonderful mix of sub-genres with an intriguing linguistic policy. Since I heard this album, their discography is looking mighty beastly.   Feb 20, 2024

I tried a lot of recent war metal last week, and this one was my favorite. Nice and dark. It might be a skosh more on the deathgrind side, but it's great combination either way. The sax that shows up is a sample, and I don't know if that's a turn off for you. All things considered, it's morose, depraved, nightmarish, & obnoxious. Enticing?   Feb 20, 2024
Weighing Souls With Sand
level 15 Cosmicism   95/100
Some say this is the best doomgaze out there, and I can understand why they say this. It's quite an astounding album, with emotions so strong, deep, & complex. Drone metal segments also have percussion, so it might interest some people who don't try much drone. Anyway, this husband-&-wife duo is no longer with us, and that makes this recording even more special. I'll never forget this one.   Feb 20, 2024

War metal, pagan metal, & dark folk; I had no idea these very different genres would ever come together so perfectly. This album is a very perfomative recording, as in I can picture musicians playing this right at the moment I'm hearing it. Also, this is really distinct even within the sea of uncounted underground releases. Recommended for weirdos like me.   Feb 15, 2024

So it turns out that atmospheric black metal has enough room in its wide open soundscapes to fit a load of Pink Floyd influence. These classic rock guitar solos that chill you out complement some extreme blackened melancholy. Rich in feeling and played with éclat. My pick of the day.   Feb 15, 2024
Temple of the Dog
level 15 Cosmicism   90/100
Some great songs here, and Chris brings it into gospel territory at times. Besides that, it's also very bluesy. The famous track 3 is probably the best in my opinion, but nothing is filler here, so it's easy to recommend.   Feb 15, 2024

Every Sound Has a Color in the Valley of Night: Part 1

Such a wonderful album, and don't get me started on the cover art. Choosing to listen to drone metal is like choosing to jump into cold water. It's going to be a thrill, but you have to psych yourself up. This is why the genre is so niche. Just jump in!   Feb 13, 2024

Pretty good, and the trance has such a nice freshening effect as usual. However, I can't help but think the metalcore aspect is just holding them back, like if they base the metal parts on plain metal instead then the songwriting can get a lot better. Maybe I'm biased, but maybe I'm just 100% right too.   Feb 13, 2024

I absolutely love this album! All kinds of technical and progressive and every instrument is top-notch. His 2022 album felt like a bizarre highlight of the year, but this one is one of the heavyweights of 2023. My pick of the week without a doubt.   Feb 12, 2024
A Dialogue with the Eeriest Sublime

Some songs on the 1st half had me afraid Infected Rain was declining, but some later songs made it worth my while, especially track 6. Death Dealer Union's recent debut, which has the same vocalist, is better in my opinion. This Infected Rain album, all in all, is uneven but pretty good.   Feb 12, 2024

The instruments are absolutely excellent, and the ominous aura is just so powerful. The vocals do decrease my score quite a bit; it's hard to take them seriously. Attila improved on later releases, and though this album was a huge moment in black metal history it's just a little overrated. Still a great listen though.   Feb 12, 2024

For me this just okay. Also, there is very little black metal on this. Mostly it's folk metal & dungeon synth. The most black metal track is Home of the Dead, which is a mix of Summoning song and a Sojourner song, and this is also the best part.   Feb 12, 2024

She Sells Sanctuary is a totally infectious song. Tracks 4 & 8 are pretty good too. A lot of this album is so-so, and the recording is not so great here & there; some highs hurt my ears even though I had he volume pretty low.   Feb 12, 2024

Fuzzy in a Paysage d'Hiver kind of way, but there are some very nice & aggressive first wave BM parts to bob your head too. All in the midst of epic yet vicious atmosphere building up for those 3 long tracks. Damián has been releasing so much inspired music lately that it's hard to keep up.   Feb 12, 2024

신화 속 폭력적인 이면에 대한 감정적 해석의 전달. 에픽한 소재들을 다루면서도 그것에 매몰되어 주객이 전도되지 않게끔 느낌과 표현에 철저히 집중한 듯하며, 그런 면모가 감정적이되 냉철하게 와닿는다.   Oct 31, 2024

85-90, 예전에 빽판으로 즐기던 음반. 운이 좋게 다시 시디로 구입하게 들어보게 되었다. 지금 이 시점에서는 좋게 들렸고 시원시원했다. 녹음은 거칠긴 하나 가끔 너무 갑갑한 믹싱이 되어 있는 메탈음반이 많은데 차라리 이런 식으로 만드는게 낫다 싶다. 1,2집도 언제인가는 구해지지 않을까 생각해본다.   Oct 30, 2024

어쿠스틱 기타, 첼로, 플루트 등을 이용하여 녹음한 어쿠스틱 사운드의 작품이다. 그러나 표현하고자 하는 사운드의 방향성 자체는 무겁고 진지하다. 멜로디가 약간 서늘한 냉기를 품고 있다. 더운 여름에 들으면 시원함을 느낄 수도 있지만 대체로 가을의 분위기에 잘 어울린다. 커버아트와 음악의 매칭이 절묘하다.   Nov 4, 2024

90-95. 이 시기의 블가 앨범들은 다 좋은 듯. hansi의 보컬을 더 느끼고 싶어서 사모으기 시작한 앨범인데 그렇다고 나랑 맞는 음악을 하는 밴드가 아닐 수 있었지만 지금까지 몇번들어본 결과는 만족스러운 행진 중이다. the eldar같은 곡은 지금의 나에게는 최고의 곡. 인트로+본곡 같은 스타일로 중복이 되는데 큰 단점같지는 않다. 조화롭게 잘 넘어갔다.   Nov 8, 2024

80-90. 메킹 커멘트를 보고 얼라이브를 베스트 대용으로 해도 된다는 의견에 2,3를 사게 되었는데 1,3에만 rock and roll all nite가 있다는 것을 다시 여기서도 알립니다. 이번에 사게된 앨범이 일본반 shm-cd 규격인데 음질이 나쁜게 아니지만 2보다는 살짝 거친게 아닌가 싶다. 아직까지는 얼라이브 시리즈+일반 스튜디오 베스트 조합으로 끝낼 생각.   Nov 6, 2024

훌륭한 데뷰. 1집을 꼭 사야 할까라는 생각으로 살다가 이제야 얻어걸린 느낌으로 사게 되었다. 물론 1집을 필수라고 여기지 않았지만 후회도 없다. 보컬이 멤버들보다 나이가 10여살 많은 걸로 기억하고 게디리의 좀 더 듣기 좋은 버전이라고 생각이 든다. 다만 믹싱이 마음에 들지 않아서 살짝 밋밋하다. 보컬과 드럼이 살짝 뒤로 간 느낌.리믹스가 절실하나 과연?   Nov 7, 2024
