So let's all talk about the new A Forest of Stars album

[CladInDarkness]

So Opportunistic Thieves of Spring, what does everyone think?

I'm only on my first spin and I must say this is quite good. Not completely sure where I would put it alongside Corpse of Rebirth, so I'll just count them as equals at the moment. The last couple of tracks really stand out to me.

Same here, only listened through once.. Needs more nsbm touches tbh.

Tis lovely though.

 

[S4R]

cutting-edge black metal with a hot electric violinist. i'm fancying it.

 

[BanginTheDead]

After a few listens I have determined that I like this album more than The Corpse of Rebirth. I still believe that to be a fantastic album, no doubt, but Opportunistic Thieves of Spring just seems more refined, more experimental and overall more enjoyable.

So far this one has a lot more variation than The Corpse of Rebirth
