The 2023 Thread

Here's a thread where I share the occasional thing from 2023 that J. might like.

Excellent Atmospheric Black/Folk Metal.

i had one or two of their albums back when i lived in dallas in 2017ish. not bad at all. i think one was very acoustic-y

def cool cover art

i pre-ordered the new Esoctrilihum...a 3 CD album

 

[Doom]

How about that Majesties - Vast Reaches Unclaimed album, old school melodic death metal. Saw it getting a fair bit of hype for sounding like early Gothenburg stuff, I like it.

Ive played it a few times. It hasnt stuck with me as much as the guys' main bands, especially Obsequiae, but its not offensive. I might just be tired of that sound.

Yeah, I mostly listen to Death Metal now (again), but I've been enjoying some of this year's atmospheric black metal and this Blaze of Sorrow is at the top for me. The acoustic passages are reminiscent of Empyrium.

I like it a lot though I need to spend more time with it. There's so much good stuff coming out this year.
