The Melancholy Spirit and She Painted Fire Across the Skyline.

yet, if i were introducing agalloch to someone i'd show them 'desolation song"

I wouldn't..again. The first song my boyfriend heard by them was A Desolation Song and he thought it was the most boring shit ever and refused to listen to any more.

If I were to pick a favorite it would probably be And the Great Cold Death of the Earth.

If I were to pick a song to introduce someone to Agalloch with it would SURELY be Falling Snow.

Finally somebody gets it right.

Can't choose a favourite.

What's with the Agalloch hype?

 

[Astrum]

People are having a hard time thinking up threads lately, eh?

Eh, shut up. You can't hide your own shady past behind a new name and classy avatar.

This thread isn't bad. Basically everyone has heard Agalloch.

They're pretty much the best band around nowadays

HAH! I haven't!

I noticed in another forum some people made a thread about recieving their album in the mail and they were all spunking all over the place because they got the super special box with stuff in it and it was suposedly awesome. What genre is it?

 

[Mort Divine]

They're hard to pin down into one genre, but depending on the album they have influences ranging from Doom/Black/Folk metal, neo-folk, and post-rock.

bleh doom

Go there and sample a song or two. Genres don't work incredibly well with describing them, elements of all of them are present surely (depending on the album and of course song) but it all works and meshes together perfectly.

 

[PanzerKunt]

Reminds me of a mix between Opeth and Falkenbach. Not too bad.

 

[PanzerKunt]

Conclusion:
2 of 3 samples were boring as fuck, Ashes Against the Grain was cool though.

 

[Mort Divine]

Odal should be listened to in context of the entire album, The Mantle. I find it only listenable when listening to the entire album honestly, because it flows very well.

Dead Winter Days, well I can't say much about it I love it but if you don't like it oh well

Not Unlike The Waves though, killer song

Agalloch is fine. I just think Favorite_____song threads are crappy, and pointless.

I don't get it either. I don't mind some of the music but the clean vocals ruin everything. I would rather just listen too a european band.
