Deathspell Omega - Fas- Ite, Maledicti, in Ignem Aeternum

[EricT]

This album is insanely awesome. I don't know what else to say.

 

[Dark One]

I'm afraid they've gone too far for me..

Care to elaborate?

 

[Dev]

Well, let's just say that Kénôse is an easy-listening record....now

 

[Claws of Perdition]

^^ yeh that sums it up right there... wow is all i can say after one listen.

 

[Demilich]

SO AWEESOME.... STONED. YEAH!

I'm prepared to mimic this sentiment and state of mind later this evening.

Downloading now, and stepping out to blaze in 5...4...3...2...

 

[Evil?]

I am listening to it now. Not sure what I think yet. It is definitely a different album. Very strange.

Heh. The album was nuts in that state of mind... smoked some of the old mans thai shit. Felt like I was gonna rip my own heart out at one point, haha.

 

[Sadguru]

1st impression:
- too chaotic
- the riffs seems to go nowhere
- the dynamics are too obvious
- no matter how much echo and reverb are added to the vocals, they still sounds lame
- the vocal lines need more variations.

 

[Tranquillian]

I'm disappointed.

 

[Claws of Perdition]

Yeh after two listens, im kind of uncertain on it. It's chaotic but seems like they have tried to hard to do so. I need to give it more listening time i'll give it it has its moments, but after i listened to it a second time i turned on SMR'C and was far more impressed.

 

[Agalloch]

I'm loving it so far.

I'm disappointed.

Yep.

 

[Dark One]

Looks to be a very polarizing disc based on the comments so far - I'm anxious to check it out.

 

[Caelum Adustum]

Still waiting for my copy to come in the mail.

 

[Ars Magna]

I've resisted the urge to listen until I receive my copies from Ajna. I didn't care much for Kenose so I'm very interested to see where they take this one. Aside from your comments here, I have also avoided all reviews.

On a side note: I just farted and it sounded like this noise you hear on cartoons all the time but I can't place when you would normally hear it. Damn.

 

[General Zod]

I'll give it a spin, for shits and giggles. I fully expect to hate it.

me too. of course, with a band like DsO you might come to expect that kind of polarized reaction to any new release...it's either going to fulfill or not fulfill high expectations, and that's just setting it up for a "love it or hate it" reaction.

pretty much all their stuff is new to me though, so i think i benefit from having few expectations as to what it'll sound like. can't wait

LOL - that's the spirit.

I would think that if they go more for atmosphere than necro-overkill you'd probably dig them more - it sounds like the new one doesn't go in that direction though. Worth a shot though I guess.

New Drudkh coming soon.

 

[General Zod]

LOL - that's the spirit.

Well, I thought the last one was total shit.

New Drudkh coming soon.

I've got my fingers crossed I can get a hold of this before we leave for Europe.

Just ordered the vinyl version, even though I haven't got any money to spend on records atm
