level 15 Cosmicism   95/100
My pick of the day. One of my favorite death metal bands providing exactly what I hoped they would. Progressive intricacy and pounding tech death. Great album length with no filler. The cover art is pretty cool and is the exact feeling I get from the music.   Jan 29, 2024
When Daylight Reveals the Torture
level 15 Cosmicism   85/100
Very good crust punk that sounds exactly like the working class not taking any garbage & repression. The death metal layer to the music sounds exactly like that album cover. If those 2 points sound good to you you'll like this as much as I did.   Jan 29, 2024
The Final Chapter
level 15 Cosmicism   90/100
I did a crust punk Thursday, and this wonderfully post-apocalyptic feeling album was the best part of the day. Yes it's very punky, but the metal elements melt down death metal & thrash until they also become a bit heavy metal. Definitely a gem of an album.   Jan 29, 2024

Very good black metal on this album, and the songs really focus on the black metal side with just a little room for the other elements.   Jan 29, 2024

Dystopia deserves a lot of credit; these are some great songs. The voice-overs & interludes drag down the experience a bit for me, and I'll be skipping those parts from now on.   Jan 29, 2024

level 15 Cosmicism   85/100
So I'm learning crust punk can get really heavy. Rate Your Music is krazy about this album and, yeah, it's really good. It's also sludge, but I love the underground lo fi punk scene feelings that come from this.   Jan 29, 2024

I loved Edge of the Earth, and the airy & dreamy post-metal guitar parts on this album are great. Some parts I find kind of mediocre. Unfortunately some phony tough guy vocal parts here & there had me facepalming. This release is a mix of negative & positive for me, but still slightly on the positive side.   Jan 29, 2024

Good music and the production really lets the rich sound through. The vocals are just somewhat good to my ear. This rocks pretty hard but really poppy moments dominate, which might turn off some metalheads.   Jan 29, 2024

Ever Forthright

I had a djent & math Wednesday, and this was the day's highest point. Also, what the heck happened to all these members since 2011? Anyway, I keep coming back to this album - it has an eclectic mix that works beautifully and feels like a perfect natural match. I even found myself loving the jazz. Everything feels expertly played and evocative. Great work.   Jan 29, 2024

This is so dense, it's a bit of a challenge... in a good way. I'll need to listen many more times to repair the scrambling of my brain. The instrumentation is insane. Respect for this virtuoso band and their possibly untranslatable track titles.   Jan 24, 2024

Gowanus Death Stomp
level 15 Cosmicism   85/100
I'm growing to love albums that combine war metal and deathgrind. So this is music like Infernal Coil but it achieves a much different effect. I really liked the whole thing. There are some 1st class head-bopping parts. Also, just wondering if the band actually thinks NYC is so dystopian at time of release... maybe it's intended for reminiscing about previous decades... just wondering.   Jan 24, 2024

level 15 Cosmicism   90/100
Super early years of deathgrind, so I started my deathgrind Tuesday with it. This was an excellent choice. I was hoping to like it, but even so the quality of this album surprised me. Maybe it's well known that Terrorizer is a band to come to for great drumming... and now I know it too. I'm not surprised there's a band named after track 11.   Jan 24, 2024

There are some great polar opposite vibes that this album switches between (meaning there are savage freakouts and there are sentimental parts as well). Sass might be unknown to a lot of us, so I'm glad to recommend this one, even though I'm in it for the cybergrind.   Jan 24, 2024

My favorite discovery from my cybergrind Monday. This gets my blood pumping. A bit of oldschool industrial influence shows up a couple of times, and it just makes it an even richer album. I'm eager to get deeper into Drumcorps's discography soon.   Jan 24, 2024

Board Up the House
level 15 Cosmicism   90/100
I started my cybergrind Monday in style with a great album by Genghis Tron. I like this one slightly more than Dream Weapon. Board Up the House does make some pronounced shifts between those genres, keeping it interesting yet cohesive with a well-chosen track order. Also, it's mostly very harsh & heavy. Metalheads, give it a try.   Jan 24, 2024

Песни смерти

The perfect album cover! Also the skeleton delivers some captivating melodies on that accordion. The songwriting is a great example of being just long enough; they all build up emotion increasingly and deliver very emotional releases by their end, even if the melodic structure might be simple. Then they all end at the perfect moment. Also, just learn Cyrillic OK?   Jan 24, 2024

Heavy As a Really Heavy Thing
level 15 Cosmicism   70/100
Well, the title makes sense, but the music is so focused on heaviness that son structure and musical ideas feel omitted. OK, I was laughing during Satan's Ice Cream Truck, but as a whole it's just a so-so release.   Jan 22, 2024

Excellent melancholic melodies throughout this powerful record. The vocalist often switches into this defiant tone that adds great variety and helps give the album form and the sense of a plotline. I loved the whole thing.   Jan 22, 2024

Cool new artist. It feels like he's just starting out, which is probably the plain truth. This album starts off so-so but gets better and better. The brooding mood and feeling of destroyed surroundings grow pretty strong.   Jan 22, 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

level 10 sierrahotel   80/100
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

95-100 2024년까지 나온 오케스트라와의 협연 음반 모든 것을 통틀어 최고다. 다 어설픈 편곡때문에 그냥 원곡 듣고 말지 라는 생각이 드는 반면 이 음반은 최소 제대로 만들어진 영화음악 하나 들었다 할 정도로 편곡자체가 매우 잘 되어 밴드와 오케스트라가 제대로 융화 예상과 달리 스튜디오로 앨범을 냈지만 dvd 2disc를 사면 라이브 시디가 포함되어 있는 듯 하다.   3 days ago

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
