Oh yeaaaaaaaaa

[UndyingDarkness]

What is Isis like?

Sludge/Post-metal

Kind of hard to describe

Try to get the album Panopticon if you can

 

[Hatebreeder]

I ignore everyone, unless they say something that a human with an IQ over 3 would say.

I respect you. Would you like to join Ender in my Authentic Metalheads Club?

 

[hibernal_dream]

Isis rules! Way above and beyond Pelican or Agalloch

 

[MasterOLightning]

I don't see why you would compare them to Agalloch, but yeah, Isis is really good. Is there someplace to hear the new songs?

 

[Scourge of Malice]

My boner just exploded:

New song: http://www.ipecac.com/audio/081.mp3

 

[Susperia]

Ouch.


I played this band for my boyfriend last year, thinking he'd actually dig them. He didn't. As usual. Damnit.

 

[Necro Joe]

Definitely my favorite "metal" band... although metal is not a proper description.

This is my most anticipated release of the year, and judging from the three songs I heard, it will also be my favorite.

+1

That new song is amazing.

 

[Neurotic]

yeah the new song is great, that last minute rocks.

 

[Scourge of Malice]

Ya I've been listening to this song from a live bootleg a lot, but hearing a studio version is amazing. There was a lot I couldn't hear in the live bootleg and even though I saw it played live, I still didn't remember a lot of the details (like that awesome lead at the end). October 30th is so far away!

 

[Scourge of Malice]

The song is up on their myspace now: http://www.myspace.com/sgnl05

I heard the origional link wasn't working so go to their page.

 

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

Damn, it be interesting to see if they could make screamo I would like (mind you it's one of my least favorite aspects of the modern punk/metal scene)

Listen to Orchid now.

 

[WNxScythe]

Any word on who's releasing the vinyl version and when?

 

[Scourge of Malice]

Haven't heard anything about vinyl yet, but I assume they will release one as they have for all of their other albums. The last one had awesome artwork, I wish I picked it up

 

[WNxScythe]

Check out ebay, I got it for $18.

[UndyingDarkness]

whoa, that song was sweet.

The droning, doomy heavy music innovators ISIS have totally finished their latest opus, leaving the one-word album titles behind and calling this one In The Absence of Truth. It follows the logical path of their progression into extremely exciting waters and we're proud to be the ones releasing the 2xLP of this beast (Ipecac will once again do the CD version). However, true to form they throw in unexpended elements on this one and not only are there more vocals (overall), but there is more actual singing. We embrace and appreciate these changes, and hope you will too. No release date is set for the 2xLP quite yet, but you can hear a MP3 from this monster here.

 

[Necro Joe]

Did they really need to call it a beast and a monster?

 

[Killbot]

Did they really need to call it a beast and a monster?

It was more necessary than you can possibly imagine.

 

[Necro Joe]

It kind of reminds me of a dubbed french porn film I once saw, and I'd rather not have that in my head while listening to the new Isis.
