Damn everyone on this board has excellent taste in non metal music. Strange that metal fans know more about what non metal is good than 99% of the general music fans that have no idea who most of these bands are.

On an irrelevant note, I downloaded The Work Which Transforms God yesterday (I know you rave about this) and it's one hell of an eerie album. It's unusual enough for me to struggle with judging its quality at this stage, but on first impressions it's great. At first the drum machine annoyed me (they tend to) but it isn't doing now.

Ah. It is a very unusual album, easily Blut Aus Nord's most experimental and eerie album. Though, definitely not for all tastes, even those that enjoy black metal. I don't mind the programmed drums either, it adds to the dissonance of the album. I adore the hypnotic ambience it gives off. Absolute brilliance.
