[Dark One]

serious post: DsO is pretty good I like some songs like the first off Kenose and tthird prayer, I think that the rest is okay, should check out more. Drudkh is good fro, what I heard, which was blood oin our wells, ti was rocking
great atmosphere and just overall awesomeness

I just read an interview on Nightbringer ^

Then I heard samples ^^

Then I saw cover art ^^^

This is looking interesting ^^^^

 

[Trylakos]

nice artwork. Its really bleak and creepy in my opinion, but I haven't heard Nightbringer before, what kind of style is it?
note; post drunken edit

its coming of age in that its best days are far behind it wn:

If you use the letter p to replace the letter o, it's high time to get off your computer.


Edit- I'm also quite fascinated by this rocky mountain gig. However, what is the probability that it will follow the route of "Death in the Forest?"

Or simply forget the letter d, but the commentary is still on par either way.

If it does, we'll simply head over to Black Rock for some serious $5 buy in Indian Reservation casino gambling.

It's officially run it's course. I'm also happy to see Gitmo and "we're pregnant" on that list, any man who says that with a straight face deserves a kick in the stomach.

evidently you guys don't quite appreciate what level of irony i'm operating on here

note: saying "pwn" has been gay as hell for about 6 years now

What i'd appreciate, is you getting the fuck out of this forum.

From what I read in their interview, this will be the 3rd time they're doing this.

Yeah, but the first two were in the basement of one of their friend's parents' house.

I'm not sure where I stand with Drudkh, but are there any other bands that have created a similar atmosphere similar to Autumn Aurora or Blood in our Wells? I'm not talking about artists where Drudkh might have drawn inspiration -- Ulver or Burzum -- but modern, relevant bands projecting a similar soundscape? I'd be very interested in exploring this avenue further.

Neither Drudkh's sound nor approach have ever struck as being that novel, even though they admittedly have some unique characteristics. But to be honest I can't really think of any band that sounds (just) like them --- where's Erik when we need him? For now, I'll just refer to my vague feeling of not liking them very much, to conclude that I must have heard something pretty similar to their music some other time

Damn f'ing straight. That said, I've not heard anything previous to Si Monumental Circumcision.

I'd gladly upload some tracks if my computer was still functional, but as it is now I've no mp3s availible. I'll just let you know that http://www.hateful-metal.de/deathspell_inquisitors.htmlInquisitors of Satan is quite good and that the song The Suicide Curse, from their split with Clandestine Blaze, is in itself enough reason to get that disc.

 

[skeptik]

Deathspell Omega - From Unknown Lands Of Desolation from Inquisitors Of Satan
Deathspell Omega - Drink The Devil's Blood from Infernal Battles

Turns out I don't have the Clandestine Blaze split uploaded...maybe I'll get to that later, or someone else can upload the track spaffe mentioned.

Yeah, I'm just having a little difficulty buying this whole "Drudkh aren't doing anything new" challenge. I'm not suggesting that they're revolutionizing anything, but surely they've paid their dues.

Perhaps the music is reasonably 'diluted' (aka not manic or radical enough to have people perk up with immediate interest) and so people just assume that it's all being done in abundance. I don't think it is -- granted, I haven't hunted high and low -- but I'd love for someone here to list me 5 bands that are all making music like "Autumn Aurora" etc, right down to the intricate details of the magnificent drumming / percussion, surely one of the standout features.

@Necuratul - thanks for the uploads.

Hmm, Branikald were doing something quite similar to Drudkh, at least on their 96 demo "Rdjandalir". Perhaps its' just my imagination though. I'll upload some tracks soonish to see if others share my view.
