Recommendation: The Unconscious Mind - Where Philosophers Fall

[dill_the_devil]

So, I just randomly picked an album from the OneMetal review queue that I hadn't listened to yet, and ended up clapping my ears what I considered to be a thoroughly awesome blackened death metal band called The Unconscious Mind. Haven't done any research into their background or anything yet, and am in fact still currently listening to the album for the first time, but this soon in I'm already liking what I'm hearing a lot. They're not sonically similar bands, but I'm getting a similar tingle listening to this as I did when I first heard Ne Obliviscaris' 'Portal of I' last year.

Basically, to my ears it manages to blend melodic, yet technical riffs, black metal atmospherics and death metal bludgeon to great effect. Here's a track;

 

[Reign in Acai]

Decent as a one off or as support at a gig, but nothing I'd spend more than a kopeck on. Not very much in to merry melody nowadays.

I love this type of stuff, thanks for the reco
