Black Crown Initiate - Violent Portraits of Doomed Escape, out now

[Forkface]

Looked around for a thread for this, kinda surprised there wasn't one.
Album dropped today and i gotta say, straight up jumped to AOTY contender #1.
if you haven't listened do yourself a favor and pls do so. 50 mins of some of the best Metal i've heard in years.
and the solo in holy silence... damn

here's the youtube playlist for the whole thing.

I love them, can't wait to listen

 

[JD27]

Need to listen to it, bought it and downloaded just been listening to new Good Tiger all day. Really liked the singles though. With Good Tiger, BCI, and new Misery Signals there was a whole lot of new shit for me to look forward today!

 

[KnightBrolaire]

Man this album slaps hard, it's probably going to be one of my contenders for AOTY.
They bring the right blend of weird prog ideas and techy/death metal wankery.

 

[JD27]

Just listened all the way though, so good. Holy Silence... more like Holy Shit! That ending acoustic and solo are tasty!

 

[MFB]

While nothing from them will top Wreckage of Stars, this one took their #2 in the catalogue for me; seems to be a middle ground between WoS and Selves We Cannot Forgive's style.

 

[ZeroS1gnol]

This album is so good!

 

[Triple7]

I've heard about half of it so far. Might be their best yet!

 

[GunpointMetal]

So, I really like everything on this album except the intro. Probably my personal favorite since Song of the Crippled Bull.

 

[Bogner]

Pleasantly surprised. I need a few more listens but I don't think it will topple The Wreckage of Stars as my favorite...or will it?
