Agalloch vs. Empyrium

[Reign in Acai]

Phillip no offense, but that music was ghastly!!! ---- > ---->

 

[Sadguru]

Well that needs to be fixed!

Best song ever?

One of...definitely.

 

[Six-winged Seraph]

Agalloch.

 

[NAD]

I'm surprised I voted for Empyrium because The Mantle > everything else both bands have released.

Well, I haven't heard Ashes Against the Grain yet though. My shirt is in the hamper and the box is in my bedroom though, the weather just isn't fitting right now.

 

[Claws of Perdition]

Agalloch.

.

 

[Thanatopsis123]

Well, after listening to the new Agalloch a bunch I voted Empyrium. Agalloch has two great albums and one near masterpiece. Empyrium has two great albums, one near masterpiece, and one absolute masterpiece.

 

[swizzlenuts]

I'm actually going to go smoke and listen to Empyrium!

 

[J.]

ive come to appreciate empyrium more. i think their best is Weiland. wintersunset is cool as is songs of moors. where at night the wood moose shits is boring.

their main problem is their clean vocals.

Which one are you referring to as "absolute masterpiece"?

 

[Guthrum]

I always enjoyed Where at Night... the most out of everything they've done.

 

[Thanatopsis123]

Songs of Moors and Misty Fields

Songs of Moors and Misty Fields

I absolutely love that album....

I just got done smoking pipe to it, perfect for a night like this....

 

[dill_the_devil]

Philip no offense, but Backstabbers Inc. owns me!

Fixed.

ok old thread but i had to voice my opinion.
i have never found agolloch in the least interesting , i think their songs are boring , their lyrics are ok at best and they sound pretty repetitive , whereas empyrium is my favorite band of all time , forget weiland , weiland is not even close to being their best album , songs of moors & misty fields is in my humble opinion the best album in history , NOTHING will ever surpass the emotions and desperation found on that album , just read the lyrics on songs of moors & misty fields and tell me where agolloch is ??? they could never write something like that , agalloch lyrics are not on the same level AND their songs are just downright uninspired at times , i think it all comes down to personal preference , i prefer empyrium and some of you guys may prefer agolloch , but you have to admit empyrium lyrics were way SUPERIOR , markus would put shakespeare to shame

That has to be the single most worthwile bump ever.

 

[Climb Thar Hill]

yar, he's like bizarro EVERLOST

 

[EricT]

Everfound?

Although, I can't say I agree with him. I always found Empyrium's lyrics, just as Agalloch's, quite a bit pretentious.

 

[empyriumman]

just my opinion , there is no comparison , empyrium is just better , i've always found agalloch boring , they're not even in my top 100 , seriously , i tried listening to them once but agalloch can lull me to sleep i like tons of bands but agalloch is not one of them , period .

 

[Climb Thar Hill]

Both of their lyrics are hit and miss with me personally.

New EVERFOUNDLOSTINEMPYRIUM keep posting you beast.

Not familiar with the band's material much, but you can seriously go suck a dick for this one.
