Ansia

level 15 Cosmicism   90/100
Get into the groove and the beat while feeling the pain & despair of the vocals. It's a solid 25 minutes, and I'm thankful that the depressive stuff is worked in without doing too much or sounding embarrassing.   Jul 5, 2022

I can feel the effort that went into this, and it makes it a good listen. Also, it's quite Agalloch . Well, that's a great band to emulate.   Jul 4, 2022

A Conscious Creation From the Isolated Domain - Phase I
level 15 Cosmicism   90/100
The whole thing was energized and interesting. At points it's close to thrash and heavy metal, and a few songs have some blackened parts. I think more bands with singers should just write an instrumental album more often.   Jul 4, 2022

The same concept as the Περσεφόνη EP, but not as powerful for me. It's still pretty and spooky. If you're wondering, the title Αγγελος is Aggelos, which unsurprisingly means Angel.   Jul 4, 2022

Very very very very very very raw. Also it is raw. This is not for everyone, but its dark foreboding mood is breathtaking. Recently I heard Kvad's 2022 album and I thought, 'This is not the right way to make raw work.' Transcending Rites has the right way.   Jul 4, 2022

Vicious music here. The album cover is surely giving you the wrong idea. The title is too. This is 26 minutes of pure wailing ecstasy. It's a little post, but post never writhes in this much searing pain. Also, it goes to 80s new wave at one point, sounding like it's from London, but it still feels right, proving the musical genius. This album ends too quickly, and then the play button doesn't work soon enough.   Jul 3, 2022

A Fleur De Peau - IV - No More Dawn
level 15 Cosmicism   95/100
Beautiful with masterful playing as usual for Déhà. Surprisingly catchy for blackened doom metal. At times I'm wondering if some parts are post-black metal or melancholic metal blended in. Whatever you feel about the sub-genre, the sadness and pain in on full blast here and it's amazing.   Jul 3, 2022

Great progressive djent. This album has a subdued slower part in the middle, which might be a minus for some of us. The album goes out in beautiful style, with this plodding yet triumphant yet sad movement. This is a good one for us fans of instrumental djent.   Jul 2, 2022

Of Terror and the Supernatural

It's a good album with a few standout moments. I found the last track to end in the most spectacular way that made me think, 'This is why doom exists!' This is their first album very early in their career, which already has a bunch of very good albums at nine years as I write this.   Jul 2, 2022

You're guessing it's kinda like Darkspace because of the covert art, and you're right. You're also guessing it's done extremely well with the unique personal sound of this artist because you noticed this is a project by Severoth. You're right again. You're so great at guessing. I'm really proud of you.   Jul 1, 2022

Sacrificial Baptism in Murky Waters
level 15 Cosmicism   95/100
When I listened to their extremely atmospheric, raw, and evil 1st album in 2021, I definitely did not think they needed to increase the evil feeling even 1 percent. Then, they released this album, which is astoundingly more evil still, and I love it even more. Be warned though, raw means lo-fi. In other words, intentional fuzz. If you're like me you'll love it like that.   Jun 30, 2022

I think when he recorded this album he really had good inspiration and he really could feel there was a way to make it work well. Inspired by his time in the wilderness, he made a great album to begin this project with. Out of the first 2 albums, they have just enough difference in character to make them distinct for the listener, and they're both just as good,   Jun 30, 2022
Deterioration of Minds
level 15 Cosmicism   75/100
I got my energized heavy feeling from listening to this. I also got the 'just visiting' feeling that I'll probably just try it this one time. Maybe Deterioration of Minds is more for people who are really focused on death metal.   Jun 30, 2022

level 15 Cosmicism   75/100
A big mix of very strong points and annoying weak points. Bad first, the album cover is cringeworthy and I think you can figure out why. The drums are recorded not so great. There's way too much narration and extra stuff after each song. Good stuff includes guitar solos, singing, and symphonic arrangement. I'm glad these guys like their own style, and they used their style much better on their 2022 album.   Jun 30, 2022

Their bandcamp says they've all been in black metal bands for many years, and from the 1st second to the last of this album it sounds exactly like that, like the true veterans using their experience to make the genre as powerful as they can. They identify their music simply as black metal, but some songs have some rich atmosphere, and others are super melodic. No need to squabble about sub-genres, it's all great music.   Jun 29, 2022

Mind you, the crust punk element is still in this album, but kinda diminished. Anyway, the percentages in the mix changed, but with this 2021 album, their quality is still there. This is beautifully melodic with that rebellious real-working-people feel especially in the drums. Fantastic album.   Jun 29, 2022

This is my kind of tech death. It's also my kind of prog. Apparently these Frenchmen were tuned into my kind of everything because they made a whole album of it, all the way to the cover art. The recording has nice thick guitars with a rich stack of layers of sound. Whereas their 2020 album is one I appreciate as good but for death metal guys more than me, this time I just plain love the album. Energy, intricacy, beauty & the beast - all awesome.   Jun 29, 2022

The songs build up so nicely, and once you're in the thick of it, there are so many emotions coming through all at once with some apparent, and others effecting you covertly. There's a lot of nostalgia, despair, regret, anger, and bravery, but there's a deep sadness that's usually hiding in the doom genre. This album also gets an A+ for sound, just raw enough. Beautiful album.   Jun 28, 2022

For me, every song starts off sounding like it's going to be great, but it never fulfills that. By the end of the album, I figured out that I just don't like the singing melodies. The singers are good, but I didn't like the melodies they wrote for the singing.   Jun 28, 2022

Another very good atmospheric black metal release from a new project. This guy has been in other bands though. Anyway, stylewise it's post and a little blackgaze but in an Alcest way instead of a Deafheaven way. Also, usually somber piano-only tracks at the end are the low point, here it's one of the high points.   Jun 27, 2022

To be honest, I totally love the all the Paysage d'Hiver kind of stuff in the first half of the album. The ambient stuff on the 2nd half is pretty good, not as bad as Burzum, but if I play this album my motivation is to hear the atmospheric black metal, and maybe skip the other stuff.   Jun 26, 2022

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

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
