..someone please confirm if Black Pyramid is as good as that metal archives review and i'll get off my butt and order it.

 

[En Vind Av Sorg]

Yes, it is definitely awesome. Order away.

 

[Climb Thar Hill]

Whoa fuck. New griftegard album was released a few days ago. "solemn, sacred, severe" must find now

 

[rms]

yeah haven't heard much about a US distro or the release itself, but I think Tim said he would try and stock it at SKR

 

[Plastic Nathrakh]

Anyone heard of Chilean band Procession? Pretty intense trad doom, the strings are so lush and crisp they could be made out of Swizzlenuts' beard offcuts.

A Warning vibe all over though slightly more epic and "alive". Digging this right now.

I usually like your recos but this shit is boring! Bias as I may be.

 

[Vittra]

Procession is the furthest thing from boring.

Pretty interesting new doom group. It drags on a bit and the vocalist doesn't hit all the notes, but it has potential.

 

[Krilons Resa]

new griftegard rules.

the new centurions ghost is gonna bludgeon the FUCK out of everyone.

 

[swizzlenuts]

The new Gates of Slumber is extremely mediocre. I was hoping that when I saw them live the songs just didn't come across very well, but after one listen, I'm completely unimpressed.

Lord Vicar is cool. New Unorthodox is ace. Altar of Oblivion is ace. The Lamp of Thoth is ace as always.

 

[Koude Haat]

the gates of slumber album rules, but i don't really like the production.

 

[KILL TULLY]

This has definitly already been mentioned but I don't care:


Sleep - Sleep's Holy Mountain


Awweessoommee.

 

[Demilich]

Thats fucking right it is! Now I have to go put that LP on and jam to those heavy ass riffs

 

[Mr_Haze]

Part way through Black Pyramid's s/t right now, it has a real energy to it, like The Ethereal Mirror, except with a vocal delivery close to that from Holy Mountain. It's pretty good.

Timbo at SKR just stocked the new Griftegard

 

[Krilons Resa]

No he didnt. Unless it's a typo?

 

[swizzlenuts]

It's in the store now. I'm going to pick it up tonight!

 

[Krilons Resa]

[swizzlenuts]

[Krilons Resa]
