For a self-released CD this one is packaged especially beautifully. The trio Scald hails from Ireland and what they are delivering here surely requires some time to grow. It concerns a mix between crust, black, doom and punk, with the emphasis on continuously returning riffs. This reminds me...

A great *album* to die with, IMO, would be Elend - Les Ténèbres Du Dehors.

I have the ASMZ album He Has Left Us Alone... and indeed think, that it is at least as good as the GYBE material, maybe even better... But it all depends on the mood, as well. At some moments the huge majestic, apocalyptic, sound of GYBE fits better, whereas at some other moments, I would...

to name a few...: Godspeed You Black Emperor! Queen Änglagård Fields Of The Nephilim Rush Camel Hawkwind Jethro Tull After Crying White Wilow

In The Woods... Ulver The 3rd And The Mortal White Willow Madrugada

Änglagård are absolutely incredible! Hybris and Epilog are both incredibly great albums, which, I think, might appeal to many Opeth fans who are not hesitant to go into a much softer kind of music: just like Opeth, both of those albums have a great mixture of progressiveness, innovation, and...

You're not the only one at that... Esp. the part where the lyrics in my signature are from, is one of the more beautiful parts of music i have ever heard... (maybe that was actually the reason why i chose to use that part as my sig ;) )

oh, and Lethe of course... and probably quite a few others as well :)

...Of Melancholy Burning (esp. the parts with the female vocalist) Insanity Crescendo The Sun Fired Blanks

...when I saw the topic name, and saw that you started this topic, I knew that is was going to be something like this... :grin:

lyrics: for the incredible beauty: A Bolt Of Blazing Gold for the depth and meaning: Skywards

in some maybe-meaningful order (i.e. the bands more at the top might more likely be my favourite band at any given moment than the bands at the bottom): Dark Tranquillity Queen Devil Doll In The Woods... Anathema Nightwish Blind Guardian Agalloch Amorphis Savatage
