Melechesh's Sphynx kicks my manboobs in!

Listened to Djinn again today. Love it. Best song on the album is called "Rub the Lamp", haha.

But Sphynx is still the king of the hill for me. Probably one of my fave DM albums of all time now.

Unfortunately he quit fairly recently, they are going to have a bitch of a time replacing him, if they can at all. I am a huge fan of Sphynx, haven't listened to Djinn yet, and have a hand numbered copy of their EP, The Siege of Lachish on Vinyl :).

You said it. Other than the fact that he's got that tight-as-fuck precision together with some swing/groove, he's also got some 'magical' touches that are hard to explain.

For that reason alone, I'd love to hear some Absu at some point.

Glad most people recognize its genius around here. Markgugs, you will love it to the nth degree, I'm glad I played you a sample at least.
