Dan, what's "special" about the Norwegian edition?

 

[Tranquillian]

Some sort of "clamshell digipak" a poster and a videoclip.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

Oh, cool. Just wondering. I wasn't sure if it came with a DVD or something.

My last batch of eBay orders just came:

 

[JayKeeley]

Now I KNOW you didn't buy that because of the cover.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

that's actually NOT the cover of the copy I got; it's a just black w/ the logo & album name on it, but I can't find that one online anywhere

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

though if you look carefully at the center of the artwork, there's a naked bint with something being shoved up her ass

so maybe I DID buy it 'cause of the cover

 

[Ellestin]

Gugs ever heard of Obsidian Gate?

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

I have not Mr. Ellestin, but MA tells me they're "symphonic" BM? I immediately get skeptical.

 

[Ellestin]

kthx bye

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

Well, tell me if they're not, or if they're worth checking out. You should know by now that I don't dismiss any band without at least checking them out. Hell, I came around on Isis & (some) Neurosis, so...

The vocal performance on this disc is stunning, IMO it rivals 'dictius te necare' in terms of complete despair put to vocals. See 2:30 into "le revenant'......greatness.

 

[Ellestin]

Well, tell me if they're not, or if they're worth checking out.

No I won't.

Forget them.

Please.

It's not nearly as sick, but it's fucking raw and extreme, and suits the downhearted Ildjarn-ish mood of the riffs perfectly well.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

Alright then.

Tickets to the Coachella festival this year, finally gonna go. Why? Because Tool is headlining.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

I would LOVE to go to Coachella one year.
