Amenra - Mass V is streaming here: http://www.cvltnation.com/cvlt-nation-streaming-amenra-mass-v/

Anyone ever watch this kid's reviews on youtube? FUcking hilarious. He actually reviews a lot of great albums and even does a pretty good job at reviewing/explaining. I guess the labels are actually sending him promos now seeing his hit counts on youtube.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Hey! He even reviewed our very own Agalloch's Temple album!

[Krilons Resa]

Wow, he has to clean himself up after that Amenra review. AOTY says he. Can't wait.

this kind of stuff I call wok metal by now, throw together every pretentious shit you can muster, stir up and watch the suckers flocking at the door yeeling AOTY.

 

[einride]

wok metal

lol

drop them a line saying they should maybe consider replacing their current catchy tagline "HARD TO CLASSIFY HEAVY MUSIC WITH PLENTY OF CONTRAST"

 

[Krilons Resa]

right on. I was thinking to myself "this is the type of album RC would have a complete circle jerk over 8 years ago." These dudes actually are pretty good though. I can't believe that aren't signed yet.

Ellestin, did you check out that Sonance?

Ellestin, did you check out that Sonance?

Ha yeah it's a pretty good review. The only thing I didn't like how was how often he described us as "post metal". I couldn't disagree more.

Nasheim-Solens Vemod DigiCD (No idea if this will ever be released. Dead silence from Nasheim since months.)

I can see how people would throw that term out when trying to describe your band's sound but I would agree that it is ill-informed.
