Recommendation: Knut - Challenger (and their other stuff too)

[Agalloch]

Challenger by Knut is a beast. Think Converge with a bit more metal thrown in the mix. One of my favorite gym albums and for anytime you want something with lots of energy. Nobody here will be disappointed with this. Just listen and bang your head to a track like Ice Will. It's hard to find good quality youtube tracks of this but I found a couple:





Also check their other albums Terraformer and Wonder for similar quality. These two albums are like half crushing and half lighter post metal type stuff. Dig it:

I'm gonna have to grab this and give it a dedicated listen.

Agalloch - any way you can upload this for me?

 

[Krilons Resa]

Most of this album is badass but some of it is...eeehhh.

I really love the way it sounds specifically the bass playing. Blast the middle section of El Nino to see what I mean.

 

[Krilons Resa]

It's definitely good shit. It just falls short in some parts.

I prefer Botch - We Are The Romans.

That song rules. I know what you're talking about and love that shit too. I do love how the band has weight to it's sound and not the typical sharp edginess tot it like many within the genre. That shit can be headache inducing.

This sounded great until the dude started yapping.

Upon further review, I'm starting to come around to the stuff that made me think it was an uneven album. Now to find it for a decent price.
