New Cult of Luna - Salvation

[Victim of Deception]

I've only heard the first track, Echoes. Sounds good so far. Neurosis, Isis, Cult of Luna and Mastodon all released at nearly the same time...quite a pleasing coincidence.

 

[Scourge of Malice]

[V.V.V.V.V.]

If they are, then metal deserves to die.

[AjDeath]

Just to see if someone would say that these bands are the future of metal.

 

[Scourge of Malice]

just you wait and see!!!

I'm deffo looking forward to the new Mastdadon, Cult of Luna and Isis stuff, but not as much as i'm looking forward to the new Bloodbath album!

 

[stefan86]

Saw them live as an opening band a year ago, boring crap.

 

[Scourge of Malice]

hmm, maybe you should check out their studio stuff.... or maybe this kind of music just isnt for you... definitely give "The Beyond" a chance... great album.

 

[thefuzmixman]

i dunno i downloaded a couple songs from this group a while ago, and i kinda like em.

 

[Oceanic Motion]

To me it sounds a lot like Isis.

 

[Necro Joe]

I far prefer Isis, 'The Beyond' didn't do much for me at all really. They have some interesting atmospheric parts and the build ups are usually promising but when the riffs are supposed to be crushing they just don't do the job and you end up waiting for a climax which never comes. If I was being unkind I might say that they try to emulate the subtle approach Isis uses but without the songwriting skills needed to carry it off. Just my two cents.

Mastodon are on whole different level of awesomeness and I'm not much for Neurosis these days. If there is a specific mood needed to appreciate their newest album I'm not in it very often.
