A gorgeous album cover that is also very unassuming is why the immense beauty of this album totally took me by surprise. Every song is totally excellent. Rather straight BM with some atmospheric BM songs. Respect for this band for playing together for many years until coming out with this fantastic first full-length. Yes, another great band for me to remember. Life is so hard, right?   Mar 22, 2023

Good djent, busy & energizing as it should be. This is instrumental music, which has 0% of the cringeworthy sappiness that showed up on Periphery's disappointing 2023 album. It proves vocals are a dangerous thing to play with, and I totally don't need any, especially in progressive djent. Anyway, With Different Eyes just gained a new fan. Thank you.   Mar 19, 2023

The songs all flow very well because of Dave Wyndorf's obvious commitment to well-crafted songs. The abundantly clever and playful lyrics also help. 54 minutes of good feelings & coolness.   Mar 18, 2023

I enjoyed this whole album tons more than I thought I was going to. After all these years of knowing the singles, I finally heard the whole thing. I thought it was going to be more commercial than usual and less deep & powerful. Neither of those things were true though. The songwriting was very good throughout, the musical ideas were all interesting, and I heard passion in each track.   Mar 18, 2023

Recently I discovered I love dissonant death metal a lot more than most other kinds of death metal. I was guessing I was going to love this album, and it gave me everything I was hoping for. Major respect to these guys for being so the opposite of basic. Now I see why they have such a high reputation.   Mar 18, 2023

For me, this is one of the most passionate and captivating albums from the 90s grunge and Seattle bands. The songwriting is perfect and plays off the cultural signifiers in the blues, rock, & metal melodies as well as the gospel tones in Chris's voice. The song structures make me feel like an extremely dramatic plot is unfolding. I also hear a lot of control & nuance in the execution. I fully love this one.   Mar 18, 2023

The same as the political issues in the lyrics, the music on all these songs is still a perfect depiction of our human society and what it's like to live in it, with all it's danger and evil. Every year that goes by I can find more & more power in these songs.   Mar 18, 2023

I had such a Good Music Friday today that my head is spinning. Also, the more bands' discographies I start trying, the more Hellhammer keeps jumping in and surprising me. What a nice guy. Variety, instrumentation, and composition are all very good on this album.   Mar 18, 2023

For me, instead of feeling like I'm hearing great music, I'm just having a lot of fun. That's the part of my brain that gets activated. I don't know how much you value that in scoring music, but I feel like this one's an 85.   Mar 18, 2023

Again, when they release an EP of shrieks of despair I love their music the most. For this one, the guitars and synths are turned down and the drumming and vocals dominate, though there are long breaks between vocals. This gives an extremely spacious feeling. Also, I love hearing how the composition focuses on the darkwave side, even though I'm a black metal fan.   Mar 18, 2023

I'm happy to listen to it and I enjoyed it, but I recognize the music is just a little good. Actually, now that I notice he has a long discography, I'm getting a hunch that there's something better than this one. I look forward to discovering the answer to that question.   Mar 18, 2023

A truly great album. Yes I've read Moby Dick, and the darkest undertones of the novel and its doomed crew are given a perfect match by these songs. Also, the doom-laden guitarwork sounds like the massive power of the ocean and its fauna. The music is as bogged down as I want, and the faster parts add some depth to the record. High quality in each millisecond.   Mar 18, 2023

The level of energy Kvelertak gives me is huge. Their style feels like pure gold flowing into my ears. I can't say enough good things about this band. Very close to a perfect 100 on this one.   Mar 18, 2023

Finding this album did a lot to improve my mood after mundane things were slowing down my day. Mellow psychedelic flowing songs that break into some crushing guitars for heavier stoner parts, the soundscape works very well. Though it's not top tier for me it's easy to recommend this one to anyone.   Mar 18, 2023

I definitely get the feeling of high quality from the first moments. While I prefer Ave Maria II to this by a substantial margin, while I was listening to Earth and Her Decay, 20 minutes flew right by and I thought it was only 3 or 4 minutes. Funeral doom runs the danger of time working the opposite of that, so Déhà & Marla must be doing something right.   Mar 16, 2023

This is very heavy, but I feel like it's only heavy. I mean the melodies and moods are left kind of blank. From start to finish it's also samey, and I don't get into the groove the way I do with Pantera's music. The guitarwork here is rather impressive, but I don't want to replay this.   Mar 16, 2023

Very epic music to get you ready for a medieval adventure, which is the purpose of this band. Lots of variety from song to song and in all of the different vocals. For me the vocals are hit or miss, but I commend these guys for being very ambitious. Overall good.   Mar 16, 2023

Good stuff and the guitars get more articulate than common for black metal. A couple songs end feeling not resolved enough. That's my only complaint. Well, also, I think we need at least 3 new albums named Hiraeth every month. The black metal community is getting kind of lazy it seems.   Mar 16, 2023

I really loved this album. It's rather post, but also heavy & evil, atmospheric, and deeply deeply melancholic. That's a lot of thick layers to the feeling. It also brings a smile to my face to see B.M. mixing & mastering here. Sounding this great, I'm presuming that he did a great job and that all the musicians did exactly the same. Great new bands still popping out of the atmospheric BM fog so much it's hard to keep track.   Mar 16, 2023

Their first full-length starts off with a huge bang and a mighty Euronymous as an ally. I'm figuring the piano & harpsichord are samples on this album. Either way it felt great like the rest of the album. Major respect to Sigh for giving 100% effort and dedication since the early 90s.   Mar 16, 2023

Good stuff, and I find it funny that Haken's & Polyphia's styles are kind of converging these days. The instrumentation is energizing & amusing. With such difficult-sounding instruments and great composition, the singing sticks out as not being at the same level of excellence. So it's a bit of a mismatch, but the album is still a great listen.   Mar 16, 2023

Obvious Burzum influence, and a somewhat depressive feel. This combination works very well for this new artist. Also, the ambient sections are good / they don't feel like filler. Good & passionate, and I enjoyed the whole thing.   Mar 16, 2023

Good stoner doom metal with occasional undertones of classic rock. Consistent tone throughout, but the melodic variety is enough to keep my attention 100%. Vocal style and instrument sounds are just what I want to hear. Sabbath influence shows up, thankfully. Please write a full-length soon!   Mar 16, 2023

For this album he dropped the black metal and kept all the other elements. I'm not against that, but this is not his best album. It's still good and worth a listen though, just less powerful in my opinion.   Mar 16, 2023

I'm thrilled there's a new album by these guys. I don't find it an improvement on their last album, but I'm extremely thankful they kept the same level of quality and made this longer record. I seriously need to hear just this kind of music every so often.   Mar 16, 2023

Folk black metal that is very rousing in the way that pagan black metal often is. Solid album with nothing warranting complaint.   Mar 16, 2023

A good album. Actually I find it only good; nothing's bad and nothing's great. It has a simple feel to it, which can be a great tactic in black metal, but here I just find it kind of good and nothing more. I'm curious how I'll like other releases from them.   Mar 12, 2023

This is one of the most highly rated metal albums of all time, but I think it might deserve even more praise. The melodies and the changes between them convey so much emotion and power that I get the feeling that the sound from the speakers is totally priceless. It's a great accomplishment and just so enjoyable.   Mar 12, 2023

Sometimes the flow of a song just feels so natural that you know that everything is exactly right. Dissection deserves credit for making sure their music is like this. Some other bands just come up with something and assume it's destiny, but these guys have higher standards than most people.   Mar 12, 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
