Turambar posted:Sleep Token have released their new album Take Me Back To Eden yesterday. This is probably my album of the year. I wanted to like this more than I do. There's definitely some successes (first two tracks, Vore, Ascensionism, last two tracks) but overall I don't feel like the parts all gel together super well. The formual's getting a bit predictable too. When it all goes together it really does rule but so much of it is waiting for the juicy bit

That Sleep Token is just boring djent with extra steps that also aren't that interesting I finally sat down and watched and relived Obsequiae's set from Fire in the Mountains last summer and it's still one of the best memories of any band I've seen

YOB/Elder/Khemmis tonight. Managed to snag a last minute sold out ticket from a guy who couldn't make it. I saw YOB open for Enslaved a few years back, but I've never seen Elder live and I'm stoked.

quote:Robin Staps explains about the writing process behind Holocene: “The writing process of every album we’ve ever made started with me coming up with a guitar riff, a drumbeat or a vocal idea. This album is different since every single song is based on a musical idea that was originally written by Peter (Voigtmann, synths). He came up with these amazing synth parts that were already sounding huge in pre-production, and he sent me some of those raw, unfinished ideas during mid lockdown 2020… and while it was all electronic, it had that definite Ocean vibe to it. It made me want to pick up my guitar instantly… and so I did, and it didn’t take long until we had an inspiring creative exchange that was heading towards totally unforeseen but very exciting places.” That explains a lot actually. I've been listening to Limbus, and it sounds good. Real ominous mood. https://shrvl.bandcamp.com/album/limbus

I actually bought a shirt. I always wanted one tbh just never occured to me to order, esp since they had disbanded and noone expected them to return. Now is the perfect time. I found Khanate around 2005 and was blasting them in my late teens early 20s to cope with all the hosed up poo poo. This is one of the bands that picks you up and carries you through anything. Real music even though its more of a sonic attack than actual music. All of their albums are AAA to me, every single one. My personal fave is Capture/Release but that's just because it was the first one I listened to.

I'd agree I think they are absolutely untouchable, on one hand I think they're the next step on from Burning Witch and on the other just something unique I think I'm least familiar with Capture & Release, but I should change that. The outro to Skin Coat is never too far from my consciousness though I love that song. The squelchy electronic sounds are not usually my thing but they are so good in any Khanate song.

Roasted Donut posted:They're coming here this weekend (as is Moonspell) and I'd had both shows as definite must gos. But then I went to the venue they're performing at for the first time earlier this week to see Harakiri for the Sky, Ghost Bath, and Unreqvited and the venue was an absolute poo poo hole in a bad way with the worst acoustics and sound mixing i've ever born witness to. I'm just going to save my money instead of going and having a lovely time because the only audible thing is the god drat drums. This place is now hoovering up like 80% of the metal shows coming to the city and it's a really depressing future to think about. That's a shame, it was a really fun show. UADA's a band that I want to see do weird, unique shows now, like a mid-eclipse set in the middle of a forest clearing or something. poo poo, there's one next summer. Maybe I'll send an email to the band and a prayer Almost the same kinda venue problem here, tbh, it's a super small space and kinda muddy/awkward stage sizing. The club is actually part of a two-fer, there's a smaller "Underground" venue and a bigger upstairs club that mitigates a lot of the sound issues. But with unknown/uncertain shows, they start with the small club as the venue and upsize if needed to the bigger space, so Possessed & crew couldn't sell enough tickets to get into the better space

Haven’t kept up with their latest stuff though. Where’d you see them? Headliners? Phoenix Hill? Jillian’s? If that place is even still around.

Hulk Krogan posted:I've got a pretty high tolerance for silly metal vocals--I loving love me some King Diamond--but I absolutely can't get over how much the high screams in Cattle Decapitation sound like Donald Duck. I feel the same but for Lorna Shore, the small amount I've listened to them, the music seems ok but the vocals turn me off. I've enjoyed a lot of black metal with arguably worse vocals but something about their vocals doesn't click with me. Any recommendations for new metal? Constantly searching for new stuff and rare that something grabs me, relatively new bands that I've enjoyed a lot are Vektor, Slugdge and Archspire

Looking for a recommendation! I really love early Exhumed's energy and tone on Gore Metal and Slaughtercult, and I'm hoping there's a few bands who just straight up ripped off those specific albums but with a twist. The twist can be anything honestly, whether it's splashes of slammy rhythmic drums, chugs, and a breakdown or two in the right place, or an additional exotic instrument, whatever. Is there anything that matches the above?

Passed on NW Terror Fest because I didn't want to spend $70+ to see like four bands by myself on a Friday night but trying to make up for it with Cattle Decap/200 Stab Wounds/Blackbraid for half that on my birthday. Curious what the live version of Blackbraid is like in particular.

The newest Lamp of Murmuur does Immortal better than Immortal lately https://lampofmurmuur.bandcamp.com/album/saturnian-bloodstorm I'm in Baltimore for Hell in the Harbor replacement MDF fest for this year, pre-fest show today was real cool, Candlemass up close and personal owned, every band was cool and good. Devil Master won me over tonight as I wasn't super into them at first but that was a great show from them
