Darkspace - Dark Space III

Needs to be on more 2008 lists. They pull off their admittedly extremely singular vision superbly. This is the only release of theirs I really bother with. Those chunky, crushing riffs are awesome.

I like small doses of it, but I get really bored listening to a full length.

I like the first two albums pretty well. The fourth album is also good aside from the weird space black metal techno rave song that totally shatters the mood.

I like the first two as well, but the third seems to take all the best elements from those and synthesises them to create what is imo their best work.

I haven’t heard the 4th one at all actually. I should check that one out. Which is it most comparable to? The song you mentioned sounds absolutely hilarious, though.

I’d really like to see Darkspace live, I imagine their shows are quite the experience.
 
The first three Darkspace albums are great. I havent listened to III I as much as I should. I remember it being delayed when it came out and I pretty much forgot about even ordering it. Avantgarde music made it up to me by sending me 3 copies of the numbered digipak. (but only one set of the picture cards sadly) I'm not sure how sending me 3 out of 500 of the pressing helped anything actually. I should probably sell the spares.
 
I haven't listened to this for a very long time, but I gave it a lot of spins when it came out, also because the style of vocals on this album somehow reminded me of Dawn Crosby (R.I.P.) - my favourite singer way back then -, though the musical direction on this album is, of course, very different from Détente and Fear of God.

Didn't know about Fear of God so I'll give their first album a shot. Détente is cool.

In a rare DM exploration mood. Still not much that differentiates most DM bands on my taste palette, but the shredding on this one keeps me a bit more entertained:
