Aeternus - "Warrior of the Crescent Moon" is 11/10 buy or just kill yourself quality

[Krilons Resa]

"Hexaeon", the brand new album, is now available at TER. Has anyone heard it?

 

[JayKeeley]

No. I haven't heard any Aeternus past their first 3 releases. Just not a big fan of straight up death metal.

[Dick Sirloin]

Or the latest brilliant and boundary-pushing release from Graveland...

 

[J.]

"boundary pushing" is sooooooooo overrated. give me something i like even if it is tried and true formula as opposed to some nincumpoop playing with "off beat rhythms" or trying to be "dark and evil" by sounding "coldly mechanical" or some other buzz shit word that people come up with to convince themselves they've found something "different" even if it is diarreah (sp?) metal

dark metal my ass

Aeternus is flat-out death metal for their last 3 or 4 albums. And while it's played well, it's still less than interesting.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Does it get any better than their first two albums? Nope.

Listening to these albums today for the first time in a while. Kicks my dick in every single damn time.

 

[Krilons Resa]

What is supposed to be the best Death Metal release from these guys? I still havent really listened to anything after And So The Night Became.

 

[J.]

Shadows of Old

I really like Ascension of Terror.

 

[Ellestin]

Though I dig the two first ones, I place Shadows of Old above any of their other material, as it retains most of the foreboding, dark metal-ish atmosphere while introducing a distinct death metal flavour (pouding mid-tempo, deep growls, sharper riffage...). So I guess it's the place to go for you right now.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Thanks.

I reviewed it too.

this band still rules.

been playing ascension of terror, and the song denial of salvation is so metal

i do agree that ASTNB is their best album, but sworn revenge is their best song
