Arkha Sva - Gloria Satanae

[JayKeeley]

I presume few here have heard this band. (Nothing came up on a search). Anyway, this stuff is UNRULY. Even NADatar should blow his load over this.

These guys are a bunch of Japs and so they're eccentric as fuck. They probably grew up listening to SIGH and MEADS and watching Yakuza and Samurai films am i rite.

Anyway, they now live in France and are paying some serious tribute to the French Black Legions.

Melodies are AMAZING. Vocals are guttural, screams, and high pitched falsetto which is so fucking out there you will laugh and then headband uncontrollably.

Listen to this now -> "49 Evil Spirits" for and and

[Krigloch the Furious]

oh my fucking god!

 

[JayKeeley]

It's addictive too. I've listened to this a bunch of times tonight already.

that riff at 2:50m is utterly

 

[Dark One]

That falsetto is so amazingly horrible and out of place that it completely rules.

 

[JayKeeley]

Exactly. And I give them more leeway for being Japanese. This is what happens when you are raised in the fallout of a hydrogen bombing campaign.

It's fucking awesome is it not?!?! Holy shit, I'm so glad we bombed the common sense out of these japs, the end result is incredible.

Good heavens I can't stop listening. This is simply genius.

yeah it's fucking unreal

aside from the novelty of the vocals, it's really solid BM, some of the best I've heard in a while

 

[Doom]

lmao

 

[Ellestin]

This is absolutely great, the falsetto would be ridiculous on 99.99% of bands, but here it melts just accurately into those guys' cold, yet extravagant mood. Good chance I'll buy this album.

[EDIT] holy poop, I'm literally falling in love with this song!!!

[EDIT II] JK, you're my sweet something special, you know...

[EDIT III] just d/l the album, halfway through, I'm so fucking BUYING this. Haven't been so excited about a BM album since Lunar Aurora's latest.

 

[Reign in Acai]

Dled the album? Up another track or two!

 

[spaffe]

Haha I agree, this is great. Kind of reminds of Peste Noir in it's avant-gardre-I-don't-give-a-shit attitude, very cool indeed
