Vae Victis
preview  December's Fire preview  Vae Victis (1996)
level 15 Cosmicism   75/100
Not quite the sound I was expecting. I enjoyed it somewhat, but I guess it's not my thing.   Jun 18, 2023
River Runs Red
preview  Life of Agony preview  River Runs Red (1993)
level 15 Cosmicism   95/100
Gorgeous songwriting played with maximum real emotion. This album blew me away. I love the Sabbath and Misfits influence. Also, these are the best-sounding vocals I've heard on anything from Life of Agony. I look forward to replaying this often.   Jun 18, 2023

Very pleasing. My hunch was it would be mediocre, and I'm glad I was wrong.   Jun 18, 2023
The Black Sentinel
preview  Elffor preview  The Black Sentinel (2023)
level 15 Cosmicism   100/100
This was a huge treat for me today. Elffor was good in the early years, but he was just getting warmed up. This is totally hypnotizing and ominous, and the artwork by Igor Mugerza is epic. I love this album.   Jun 15, 2023
Die Schlacht (In Acht Sinfonien)
level 15 Cosmicism   85/100
Definitely symphonic. End result is it's good stuff reminiscent of Summoning   Jun 15, 2023

I really loved this one. I remembered hearing the single, but I didn't know the whole album would be so great. Respect to the super group.   Jun 15, 2023
A Fleur de Peau - V - At the Poles of Everything

He concludes the A Fleur de Peau series with a very uplifting album. Also, I'll have to learn about these guests.   Jun 15, 2023

I find the vocal melodies pretty good, and everything else even better.   Jun 15, 2023

It's hard to think of any criticism for this; I just had a fantastic time listening to it.   Jun 15, 2023

Decent djent. Also, they had a trippy fractal kind of video made for the whole album.   Jun 15, 2023
The Asthenic Ascension
level 15 Cosmicism   90/100
Beautiful atmosphere and melodies, and the mix of genres is extremely gratifying. Also, a sobbing voice-over here is 500 times more effective than usual. I don't feel I can give it higher than 90, but I'm still ecstatic I've learned about this band. Thank you Metal Addiction.   Jun 13, 2023

Sometimes an album shakes the whole world so well I need a very long moment of silence after the last track. This is one of those albums. When the music is this good, even that band name becomes easy to remember. Incredible.   Jun 13, 2023

Good aggressive music, and it's only their 1st full-length. Not quite my style, but it shows enough promise for me to try their other releases.   Jun 13, 2023
ID.Entity
preview  Riverside preview  ID.Entity (2023)
level 15 Cosmicism   90/100
Right off, they give us a track 1 with one of the most invigorating & catchy choruses of the year. These guys are completely genuine, and this allows real inspiration to come through. There's a couple of parts with lyrics I disliked and some moments felt like they should've been more concise. Not a major complaint - a very pleasant experience overall. Also, respect to the singer's perfect English skills.   Jun 11, 2023

Purge
preview  Godflesh preview  Purge (2023)
level 15 Cosmicism   95/100
Protip: play this album while driving around and you will instantly become the coolest, toughest person in the whole city. The whole album is good, but the first few songs had me imagining a perfect score for this. The last 2 songs are significantly less powerful for me. Overall, still extremely good heavy music that leaves me in ecstasy.   Jun 10, 2023
Tierra del Fuego

level 15 Cosmicism   95/100
Naaazszszsttyy guitar tone on this album. I like this one a lot more than their 2018 album. Tierra del Fuego is full of trippy astral-projecting sensations that are invigorating.   Jun 10, 2023

Nice album with some 100% genuine screams of despair. I like this one more than Gone - almost enough to make it show up in my score.   Jun 10, 2023
Broken Valley
preview  Life of Agony preview  Broken Valley (2005)
level 15 Cosmicism   75/100
How do you break a valley? Anyway, there are some good moments on this one, but it's not their best album.   Jun 10, 2023
Suicide Season
level 15 Cosmicism   80/100
The title track is the highlight and the really inspired song. Also, the album's punkiest moments are nice too. So much of the album is focused on blurting out obnoxious things, and those parts a chore for me to listen to.   Jun 10, 2023
Dealing with Demons, Volume II
level 15 Cosmicism   75/100
It has some good moments, but there are far too many vocals, so they often feel without purpose to me. The macho stuff gets a bit tiresome too. Nothing terrible though, so it's somewhat good.   Jun 9, 2023

This feast of an album lives up to the hype. It has such wonderful variety, and it's really impressive.   Jun 8, 2023
Beyond the Veil

This album's strong point is the variety of original soundscapes. I think I need to catch up with this band.   Jun 8, 2023

Echoes on a Windsept Plain
level 15 Cosmicism   85/100
By the same artist from Skuggor, Forlorn Citadel, Autumn's Dawn, & more. Very nice melodies that get dynamic at just the right spots. This band name is Autumn-Winter in Sami. Cool to know.   Jun 8, 2023
Icons of the Melancholy
level 15 Cosmicism   95/100
My pick of the day. Yes I loved the atmospheric BM, but he also combined slamming vocals with some of the BM songs. Some of the other tracks sound like blackened death metal, so it's some great variety of sub-genres all imbued with his icy suffering and sadness. I'm so close to giving this one a perfect 100. So close.   Jun 7, 2023

level 13 Harlequin   90/100
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

Handle With Care
level 15 metalnrock   85/100
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

Nightfall in Middle-Earth
level 15 metalnrock   95/100
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

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

85-95. 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

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
