Solid album with a straight up 90s sound. I like the whole album. Nothing bad but nothing top tier for me. Also, it's much better than that cover art.   Dec 18, 2022

I was disappointed with this EP. It's still so-so, but their later releases are so much better in every way. Following Ivy suffers by sounding like metalcore; the vocals are vomit, and the heaviness is more annoying, and not invigorating like their other releases. I don't enough fun complicated djent. It's their, but usually they cram in more. I guess this is for metalcore people.   Dec 18, 2022

I love this album, but it's absolutely not for everyone. It's harsh & jarring. It's like they took a time machine and hung out with The Who and Led Zeppelin as they were writing those early 70s songs that verge on metal, except Boris warped them into something weird with disturbing saxophone. Later in the album it's more stoner, sludge, and then extremely punky. What a wild ride.   Dec 18, 2022

Cool music. It's very playful and he really commits to the alien theme. This album sounds like it could be the score to a really unnerving sci-fi movie, and played like that for 10 or 15 minutes at a time without much fading out or cutting out. It looks like this artist has a bunch of one-man-bands. I'll check them out some day.   Dec 18, 2022

Totally mesmerizing. What I learned is that Christian Death is not death metal. Also, they're not metal. For me it's one of those names I heard decades ago, but never heard the music. Anyway, I bet a lot of the best gothic metal bands listen to this album often. It's beautiful.   Dec 18, 2022

Somebody forgot to tell these guys that it breaks the laws of physics when your debut release is this good and totally changes the future of music forever.   Dec 18, 2022

Death metal album of 2022 for me, even though Exocrine's album is more my style. 劇變 is played with total precision, and I loved every second of it. It's as heavy as anyone could ask for. I did not expect I was going to love it this much; I thought I was listening just to find out what other people are talking about. Congrats to Ripped to Shreds.   Dec 18, 2022

I really love each song's sound. I think the compositions and structure could improve and get more imaginative. Overall good quality & it's nice and soothing atmospheric BM.   Dec 18, 2022

Great sunny feeling to these awesome bluesy stoner riffs. They channel the feel of the 70s without being retro or phony. It makes me want to play it repeatedly and I get more & more into it. Also, the band says they're giving all money from sales to support volunteers in Ukraine. They have all my respect.   Dec 18, 2022

This is a truly wonderful album with highly charged melodies. These guys have complete control over the feelings they imbue the songs with, and this shows in the quality. It's great black metal, and at some parts they even wander into Joy Division territory. A real highlight of 2022.   Dec 15, 2022

Great consistent sound to this record, but it has just enough variety in song structure and melody to make it work from start to finish. Actually, it's a very commercial sound, but in a fun way. Also, I think the singer is more or less rapping a lot, in case that matters to you. If that's no problem, then I recommend it.   Dec 15, 2022

Well composed songs full of attitude atmosphere.   Dec 15, 2022

Very well played and I love the guitar sound. Thank you Metal Meltdown for the recommendation.   Dec 15, 2022

I really loved the evil and dangerous mood of this highly impassioned album. I picture dark caverns and stone halls with some smoke in the air. This is blackened thrash that makes me really love the genre - much more than that Deströyer 666 album from this year.   Dec 15, 2022

This album's stellar reputation and that extremely evocative cover had me wondering if it could live up to the hype, For me it did; everything about it is great!   Dec 15, 2022

This one starts off so heavy and angry, but soon it drops the anger and keeps 100% of the heaviness. That's where I started really loving it. Nice and hypnotic grooves.   Dec 15, 2022

Good & trippy in an ethereal & spacey kind of way.   Dec 15, 2022

This sounds like a fat man in leather with a beard who is about to punch another man who looks pretty similar, and they're in a dark bar. Anyway, it's good & bluesy, with some influence from Clutch I bet. These guys are pretty well established, so I'll try their other albums.   Dec 15, 2022

Good but not great. Did you ever notice me mentioning that enormous horde of good atmospheric releases from 2021? I remembered liking this one, but couldn't remember what it sounded like. Some good dungeon synth for variety. Not as good as their 2022 release but definitely worth a listen.   Dec 15, 2022

I wanted a straight up drone album, and it just happened there's a brand new one from boris. Well, they actually put out 17 billion releases a year... Anyway, I was feeling it the whole time and my mood improved quite a bit in the process. Definitely only if you like drone, but I recommend it.   Dec 15, 2022

7 good and enjoyable songs. Ash, track 7, is totally top-tier though. It's extremely memorable, and I still just want to keep hearing it after 10 months. One of the best songs of this year.   Dec 13, 2022

For some reason I was in the mood to call something low quality. This EP fought back and didn't let me do that. It's rather good, and playful too.   Dec 13, 2022

2 albums in 2022! Hail Geistlicht. This one I liked a slight bit better. Also, recognize this artist for being brave enough to take that photo of a Pillager Mansion for this album cover.   Dec 12, 2022

Good album. Not great, but definitely better than Lux Mundi   Dec 10, 2022

Very obvious Drudkh influence on this. Solid & enjoyable.   Dec 10, 2022

Top-tier singing and mostly well-composed songs. It's metal, but it sounds like it's safe to listen to this around grandmas and the general public. I'm kinda worried somebody might see me listening to this. How will my reputation recover?   Dec 10, 2022

Really heart-wrenching melancholic black metal. I loved every song. Also, this is a brand-spanking new artist.   Dec 10, 2022

An album of covers and reworked previous material is a recipe for awkward songs that don't work as well as the originals. Passive, the one original song is the best on the album. Imagine & People are People are okay.   Dec 10, 2022

At one moment it's the most rocking black metal, then it's similar to Daft Punk, then it sounds like Nororious B.I.G. is going to start rapping. Also all these different styles are done perfectly. Amazing album.   Dec 10, 2022

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
