Any fans of Tiamat?

I have to say - Wildhoney has grown on me. I found it a little slow-paced the first time around, but now that I've adjusted to it, I'm beginning to appreciate the unique moods they put forth in the album.

I think "Gaia" stands out above the other tracks in terms of songwriting quality and emotional impact, though "Whatever That Hurts" and "The Ar" have a very haunting, meditative quality to them.

Anyway, cool album. I've tried Clouds and A Deeper Kind of Slumber, but neither has had the effect on me that Wildhoney has.

Sumerian Cry is hardly Tiamat's best.

Clouds and Wildhoney are my favorites. I also enjoy Deeper Kind of SLumber

Agreed. I heard "In a Dream" on the college radio station back in 95. Other than King Diamond, that was the first time I heard a metal band use atmosphere like that.

Wildhoney = great album.

Has anyone heard Johan Edlund's solo project Lucyfire? If you have, and didn't immediately jump out of a window, well done. I have to keep this album quarantined from the rest of my collection in case its putrid shitness is infectious.

I've never really listened to them, but I've just ordered Sumerian Cry.

I saw Wildhoney the other day, and I really should've bought it. God knows when I'll see it again...

 

[Dazed and Brutal]

Sumerian Cry, The Astral Sleep, and Wildhoney are all very cool.
