Whiskey told me to check out Fen. I listened to them a long while ago and can hardly remember what they sound like. Will look into it.

Fen basically sounds like a more metal Agalloch. Really good stuff.

Is the new Foscor out yet?

It's supposed to be out. Haven't heard it yet, but I definitely intend to!

and yeah...that Borgne album is really good. really came out of nowhere and surprised the hell out of me

 

[~Neurotica]

Fen are very unusual. And sometimes take time to dig in.

 

[unknown]

your face is unusual to dig in to


yeah

 

[~Neurotica]

lol

 

[SkiesAtOurFeet]

Neurotica, how does the latest Bann compare to their ep?

 

[~Neurotica]

It's a bit different. More melodic or something... But it's still Bann. I seriously love it. You can check their new full tracks on myspace.

 

[SkiesAtOurFeet]

Really enjoying the Fen, may have to order it.

However, books usually have something interesting to say. I doubt that many people here care enough about Xasthur to be willing to spend the time to read such an overlong statement about his new album.

I do seeing that the new album is an interesting piece of music.
And why even snap at something as trival as a body of text on a message board about Xasthur?

Fen is phenomenal, the tracks with the cringeworthy clean vocals notwithstanding They just need some singing lessons and they'll be all set Everything else about the album is tremendous.

Haha, SERIOUSLY! What was up with that? If I was in the band I would not let those vocals make it onto the master. That totally killed the album for me.

Anyway, I think it would have been easier to read if you had separated the sections of it in some way or used a serif fontface.

I really hope you were joking because I had no problem reading MOL's post.

 

[divine_torture]

I decided I wanted to listen to Negura's 'Om'. Haven't listened to them in a bit, and now that I am, I'm suddenly very very sad that they're done... It's such a good fucking album.

 

[unknown]

definitely. it's amazing. one of my favorites of all time

 

[Srontgorrth]

Agreed, its such an awesome album.

 

[Hypnos]

^^100% true

 

[Srontgorrth]

Heres a sample from the new Drudkh album!

[divine_torture]

Fuck yes, Drudkh rules.

I'm listening Austere-'To Lay Like Old Ashes'. Fucking fantastic. If you like the suicidal bm, I highly recommend this.

 

[sevag00]

Yeah, i've been listening to Austere's latest album too recently, and it's fuckin awesome. Definitely a top 10 contender.

 

[challenge_everything]

Only thing that disappoints me about that album is the 20 min ambient track at the end. Even by BM standards it's pretty ordinary. Makes the album more like an EP than full length.

Apart from that, it's great. I don't know if I would call it suicidial BM, although it bears most of the trademarks of that style. It seems strangely uplifting in a lot of places.

Anyhow I highly doubt anyone will write a better song this year than 'This Dreadful Emptiness'. It is absolutely stunning, it honestly sends shivers down my spine every time I hear it.
