I think you have every right to be uncomfortable. I think lines should be drawn, and very frequently. I'm a very open-minded person musically, but open-mindedness can go horribly wrong without correctly crafted taste. That's how shitty music is made, bands that don't know exactly what sound they...
Hmm... Portal (the Australian one, obviously) Porcupine Tree Boards of Canada Paysage d'Hiver Opeth Soooo hard to not mention Rush, Burzum, Meshuggah, Gorillaz, Wold, and many others.
Vessel of Balon: A brazen head. Engraved with sigils. Emblems The essence of ancient planets sealed within When the moon is old Shall evoke the servitors I bid you enter this vessel Feast upon the essences you so desire Cast forth from the hosts That serve your master Behold your signs look...
Decrepit Birth, Odious Mortem and Braindrill are all literally from my hometown. I could probably go smoke one with Decrepit right now if I really wanted to, they're really chill dudes. My buddy used to get guitar lessons from their drummer, and my other friend used to get drum lessons from...
Pay extra attention to the riff from 1:00-1:34 and tell me that isn't the sickest riff on the fucking planet. Seriously, if I had written that riff I could die a happy man. Cheers Illogium.
Yeah dude! That part is SO heavy, I bob my head every time. Is this your first album of theirs? I agree 100%. That's why I have such a deep passion for Black Metal. You have to train your ears before you can even really hear what's going on, but once you understand it's pure bliss. I love...
Good enough. :p Werships is so sick, is was on an older EP of theirs but they slowed it down and made it way heavier. Is this your first album of theirs?
That's a perfect way to describe them, there's certainly Ambient Black in the mix, which I approve of greatly. Glad it's at least sinking in a bit though, most people just don't care. Larvae's another favorite, the boom at 1:55 is one of the sickest things I've ever heard. :yesway:
Writhen's probably my favorite track. I actually didn't really like the album my first listen, but by my second I was hooked. Give it a few tries, and if it doesn't work, oh well. :p
I disagree, Seepia and Outre differ greatly. Swarth and Outre are pretty similar, but I like Swarth a lot more. If you can manage to get your hands on The Sweyy EP, that album has 2 incredible songs on it (which are on Swarth, but they're different renditions of the songs). I would recommend...
Although the technique isn't the focus, it's fucking RIDICULOUS. It's by far the most complicated riffing I've ever heard, considering they play it exactly the same live. It's completely impossible to imitate, and fucking slays all the other Tech Death bullshit.
Do you mean figure out what they mean, or what they are? If you mean the latter, you're in luck! All of them are on metal-archives.com, Seepia's are some of the best lyrics I've ever read.
