New impressive death doom from "Gateway". Bandcamp up tomorrow. Jeez, not to be a complete jerk but I recognize that painting. The Magpie on the Gallows. Pieter Bruegel the Elder. 1568
Need to change the title, the black metal-death metal-art history thread! new one from Mike's fave Banger reviewer!
"Jeez, not to be a complete jerk but I recognize that painting. The Magpie on the Gallows. Pieter Bruegel the Elder. 1568" you know your art !
Speaking of history I was checking out Dio remixes and remasters and accidently infected myself with this song. Now it demands to be played four times a day.
And the latest of the trilogy of new songs: I like it and the one that Dreadnought posted just above. The other track that features Jonas Renske of Katatonia is not to my taste. Strange, as I am an unabashed fan of them...
A lot to like with this debut. I was waiting for the guitar solo to save it from being a little basic but no luck. One of the guitarists looks to be 16.
I know this is the black/death thread but Thou are certainly adjacent. Bryan from Thou dropped in a twitter reply their next album will be called Umbilical and will have reworked versions of the songs they played in their adult swim set last year plus at least 4 other songs they are sketching out. No timeline of recording/release. Here is the adult swim set: And a more recent set where they play reworked versions of House of Ideas and The Promise (can't embed more than one media link I guess?): https://youtu.be/jOUB1tM3ru0 https://youtu.be/pwNcaPW5iKc I am a total Thou fanboi and fully stoked on any news. Now if only my Myopia vinyl finally ships!
Best 14 minutes I've heard in forever. Masterclass in production. True audiophile stuff. And that is the point from what I've read
Very nice! Accomplished with good variety that wastes none of its five and a half minutes. Flickering video
I thought black metal was supposed to fill your heart with dread. Instead this fills mine with joy. The wonderfully discernable bass playing is my pacemaker.
this takes you through the roof and down into the pond and back up through the roof again. or is that only happening with me...
I was checking out this album by Finnish group Kuoleman Galleria when this song hooked me. The video is yet another slo-mo, monochromatic, dire storied bore. Bandcamp sounds much better anyway. Pedon Synty, by Kuoleman Galleria Song #5
Man I love Vader, I've had them on shuffle on Tidal all morn. Somethin about their thrashy death metal...I just love it. Anywhoo....I was reading about this one yesterday, looks like an all star band of Iceland's finest bm musicians:
Just getting around to this one, I'm finding it to be really frustrating. As you say, the guitar tone is fantastic and it's pretty impressive for a one man project, but the vocals are a big challenge for me. I don't necessarily mind this more screechy thing, but the vocals are way too prominent - both in terms of being too foregrounded in the mix (these would be suited to be pushed back lower into the overall cacophony) and that there are just so many damn vocals! Let the music breathe a little here and there.
By the narrative style I take it this is a concept album. The best parts are the progressive passages and solos. That's where Zørormr excels. The Monolith, by ZØRORMR Guitar solo 2:24
