This is beautiful, but I get the feeling that they could now play these songs even better. Anyway, I can't wait to discover what their other albums sound like.   Dec 1, 2023

An easily noticeable improvement since Metawar. Everything is good or great, especially the songs with Mick Gordon. Very enjoyable, and I love their style.   Dec 1, 2023

So full of power, energy, & attitude. With this kind of tech thrash, you can really hear how exact and nuanced their playing is. That last Beatles cover grabbed my attention so well that I couldn't even recall the original's sound until the album ended. Truly excellent music by Coroner.   Dec 1, 2023

This is not really the kind of metal I want to listen to, but it's totally apparent that these veterans are still inspired to create new music in their pummeling style. You can hear it on the recording. A very impressive album.   Dec 1, 2023

Darker & angrier than you might think by looking at the cover art. It's an interesting & unique mix of styles.   Dec 1, 2023

Heavy metal & hard rock on this one. Half of the time I feel little effort with uninspired singing, cliché lyrics, and brainless commercial instrumentation. The ballads feel embarrassing. Other times it's better and I can hear how the members are really quite skilled, but nothing on this is very good.   Nov 29, 2023

I always enjoyed Shame (and it's short-film style video). The surprise here is that the album maintains that level of quality for more or less the whole album, with engaging vocal melodies and exciting rocky compositions. The last track repeats the same line way too much. Some middle songs rip off NIИ's Pretty Hate Machine, but not so well. The vast majority was really enjoyable.   Nov 29, 2023

There are a couple of good moments, and track 5 is decent, but the rest is weak & aimless. Too crowded with trap beats. A lot of it lacks emotion & tension. They cover Björk's masterpiece Army of Me and, no surprise, can't even come close to the original. Why try the impossible? Overall, slightly negative but not terrible.   Nov 29, 2023

I remember hearing Open Your Eyes on 120 Minutes. Interesting how much variety is on this album. I wouldn't have guessed I'd hear funk, soul, rap metal along with grungy nu metal. Also the singer is great, but there are some weak points. The doubled vocals get annoying. One song ends with way too much feedback. Not perfect but still rather fun.   Nov 29, 2023

Every week there is so much great black metal. The guitar melodies on these songs really stole my heart. Absolutely my pick of the day.   Nov 29, 2023

I was trying to catch up with recent black metal today, a task which is categorically impossible. Well this album's beauty really captivated me. At times it's atmospheric, and at all times it's well done. Recommended.   Nov 28, 2023

This album is making everybody's lists and..... it's as good as they say! Deeply melancholic melodic BM that works in all kinds of surprises, but they all fit perfectly. Now I see they have 3 earlier albums and I feel pretty lucky. Throne of the Lunar Soul is highly recommended.   Nov 28, 2023

I was actually reeling and saying 'holy %#*@' to myself long after listening to this wonderful album that came as a surprise release for me today. There's doom at some parts and I think I hear Drudkh influence in a couple parts. The vocals are pure vitriol and there is exactly enough of them. The doomy parts are delectable and the blackened guitarwork is bleak and terrifying. My pick of the week, and best straight BM release so far this year.   Nov 25, 2023

It's back to atmospheric black metal for part 3. Truly excellent songwriting, and the album stays interesting and tight for 2 hours. Midnight Odyssey's trademark mix of sympathetic & evil melodies. Ambitious and a pleasure to hear.   Nov 25, 2023

There are many great moments, but the track that really astounded me was Combustion. Here & there I did find some bad lyrics and when there's an effect on the voice it detracted from my enjoyment. Little problems. Overall very good.   Nov 25, 2023

Wow, this album takes time to build to huge climaxes that are fully worth the minutes. This band should definitely be on everyone's radar.   Nov 24, 2023

I'd heard some singles form them but I never found them so good. This album was a pleasant surprise because it was better than I expected. There are lots of great moments such as the guitar melodies in track 6. The clean singing is better than the harsh singing on this album. Overall good.   Nov 24, 2023

For some moments it feels kind of haphazard & clumsy, but mostly this is well-crafted music with some intense icy & depressive moments. A very good one-man band, and that album cover is pure bliss.   Nov 24, 2023

Ooph. I can really get lost in the ultra dense darkness & heaviness, so for some moments the rich melody in these songs soaks into my mind subliminally. This band deserves a lot of respect. They stay 100% true to their style while also achieving real proficiency and nuance to the simple-seeming song structures. Very well done, Archgoat.   Nov 24, 2023

Slightly better than Back Home because the compositions are better and the vocals are less forced. Track 5, Angel, is painfully corny though, and the last track is just a bit corny. Next time I'll only skip track 5. All in all, still rather good.   Nov 24, 2023

A soulful album. I wanted to find some good blackened doom and I discovered epically emotional blackened doom. The band is on hold, but many of the members are in a new project, so I definitely have a lot to catch up on.   Nov 24, 2023

The best part of my industrial Tuesday. The mood and atmosphere just astounded me. This album is bleak, disturbing, & dangerous. I'm really glad I found out about this artist.   Nov 22, 2023

Whoever listens to this becomes a powerful warrior, pumped up & ready to fight. The crafting of the riffs and electronic elements is really thoughtful while still being visceral. I loved this and look forward to listening again, hopefully soon.   Nov 22, 2023

Heavy harsh and still full of youthful energy with 11 songs that all flow nicely.   Nov 22, 2023

The album has a very good sound, and I'll guess the band does as well. The songs fell kind of aimless and aren't built around palpable musical ideas, so I don't get into it much. The clear highlights are track 11 Blackout and the last track - a cover of Foster The People's huge hit. Overall, just somewhat good.   Nov 22, 2023

Bands that turned nu metal and then turned back - it sounds like some annoying YouTube short. I find this one so-so. Actually, the most nu metal riffing and rhythms are the most enjoyable part. The vocals, however, get weak here & there and sometimes are really embarrassing butt rock style. I think I liked track 7 the most.   Nov 21, 2023

Pretty good sludge here. At some points early on the vocals feel kind of awkward, but it doesn't happen much. Actually, the album got slightly nicer for me little by little as it progressed.   Nov 21, 2023

This early album from Celeste is much more post-hardcore than their later material. It is nice to discover how they started off with an already captivating sound. Definitely a great band.   Nov 21, 2023

Excellent songs on this super short EP that works in a lot of black metal elements. It's so good that I want more, so I highly recommend listening to this EP and then another release by Celeste.   Nov 21, 2023

죽어버린 남자다움에 오함마로 심폐소생을 시키는 앨범. 멈췄던 심장이 그들의 리프와 드럼을 따라 다시 뛰기 시작한다.   Nov 1, 2024

스래쉬 음반을 언급할 때 항상 다섯 손가락 안에 꼽는 앨범...모든 곡이 베스트일 정도로 완벽하다. 개인적으로 Stronger Than Hate을 가장 좋아한다.   Nov 6, 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

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

85- 90 채스틴의 기타가 바삐 움직인다. 당시의 다른 기타리스트와는 다른 맛이 있다. 레더 레온은 참 좋은 보컬같다라고 생각을 또 하게 되었다.   Oct 27, 2024

라센은 일본 빅터에서 받아 동일하게 12번 "Rainy Nights"이 더 들어가 있다. 앙그라 초기는 의외로 많이 듣지 않아 생각보다 익숙하지 않은 면이 있다. 현재는 이 정도 점수를 주고 다음에 또 감상하면서 고쳐보도록 하겠다   Oct 28, 2024

Their most representative album of the eighties, full of innovation and class, with forceful themes and a benchmark in style for the hard rock genre, in fact it is their best-selling work to date! My personal precise rating is (94/100) Faves: Criyng In The Rain and Don´t Turn Away!   Oct 30, 2024

완벽하다. 지금와서 painkiller 정도의 힘을 기대하는 것은 무리지만 관록과 경험으로 영그러진 놀라운 앨범을 냈다. 엔지니어링도 크게 한몫했다.   Oct 31, 2024

옛 모습이 그립다. 그래도 화이팅!   Nov 1, 2024

조금도 기대안했었는데….훌륭합니다!!   Nov 1, 2024

온갖 괴생물체들이 꿈틀거리는듯한 아트워크의 세계관이 펼쳐지며..끈적이는 불협화음 데스 사운드에 빨려든다.   Nov 6, 2024

The album finds Blood Incantation returning to their death metal roots with renewed psychedelic vigour, eager to tear apart familiar metallic ideas   Nov 6, 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

85-90 기본적으로 2010년 이후 이들의 앨범이 특별히 구리다고 생각이 든 적이 없다. 이번 앨범은 기다려도 라센이 안나와서 결국 수입반을 샀다. 전체적인 곡 수준, 연주 수준 모든게 긍정적 방향이다.   Nov 6, 2024

85-95. 5번은 후기 대표곡. 커버한 밴드가 sodom , megadeth, helloween, Jorn 등이 있다. 필 라이엇이 안죽었다면 사이크스가 백사로 과연 넘어갔을까 하는 생각과 씬 리지가 꽤나 터프한 느낌도 갖게 되는 과정이었는데 이 미래가 재미있었겠다 라는 생각이 드는 앨범.   Nov 6, 2024

Very good work on guitars,a tight rhythm sectionand lots of keyboards effects the way only FATES WARNING teached to play !   Nov 7, 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
