Man...you know, I was going to say Plague of Procreation or The Final Sin but that isn't a bad choice either.

While I could live with "Plague of Procreation" I like "The Final Sin" definitely less. Could we agree on my choice, if the next time it should be up to us both to pick a song from an album, I'd leave it up to you to have the final say? (OK, there's no guarantee that this situation will happen again.)
I won't be able to discuss this further (if necessary) right now, because it's already past midnight here and I've got to get up early.

I think Plague of Procreation is one of the weaker songs on the album personally. I'd definitely go with Seeds of the Desolate or It Came Upon One Night.

Went back and listened to the three albums I hadn't heard. Psychotic Waltz didn't leave much of an impression. Solitude Aeturnus seems like the token traditional doom snooze-fest that each list is gonna have imposed on it. The Demolition Hammer album was actually worthwhile. I'll give that one another listen.

Just catching up here ,so yeah a little late but
I'd go with the opening track/skull fracturing nightmare
or the closing track/aborticide
Skull fracturing nightmare probably my first choice unless the other guy prefers something different? Not really a bad track on there so.........

Lol what. It's much more in the vein of epic doom like Candlemass and has some power metal leanings and even some convincing thrash sections. In fact, the 2 bands it is mostly compared with are Candlemass and Fates Warning. Your assessment sucks.

I'll admit it was based on one listen, so there certainly could have been a lot that I missed out on, and there have been plenty of albums that took more than one listen to click. That said, I was bored while listening to it. I do like both of your comps though, so I'll give it another listen.

Are these your objective statements of artistic intent or just your opinions? It's hard to tell sometimes.

Still bored on second listen. Will give it 1-2 more shots over the next few weeks, to be fair.

My post had nothing to do with you disliking it, obviously I can't help that. It was more about you calling it "token trad doom" which is a totally unfair assessment of it for the reasons I explained.

The thing is it's not engaging me, so I'm not picking up on most of the particulars you mentioned. Thus far it's background music. Hence the need for a few more listens.

"I am a perfect objective judge of art, as long as I enjoy it"
lmao. Even if you dislike that Solitude Aeturnus album, I think you'd have to be deaf (or just entirely unfamiliar with metal riffing, possible considering your usual proclivities) to not notice that there are a lot of things about it different from most other trad doom.
