Holy crap, taste is subjective

Thanks for this eye opening revelation

My whole life is a lie.

Their best album is Damage Done

I'm sure you mean worst. All their albums are at least good, everything before Haven could be called 'great'. I'd place them above ATG for consistency, even if ATG had a slightly better album they released 2 pieces of shit.

I like Damage Done the best out of the albums I've heard, which are:

Damage Done
Character
Haven
Fiction
The Gallery

I really need to dig deeper into Heavy/Prog Rock.

You sure do.

My whole life is a lie.

Well we've all known this for a while now anyway

 

[IntoPhagist]

Is there anything better?

7 songs all godly. Gets better with age too..I'll never get sick of this album.

 

[Zephyrus]

It is Arcturus' best, just edging out LMI.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Agree. Fucking epic album.

 

[CF87]

The Sham Mirrors is really gay.

 

[fates warning 666]

yeah who would've thought

 

[fates warning 666]

actually i like the my angel EP i suppose

 

[DarkBliss]

LOL Damage Done is so godawful.

@DarkBliss: Actually, that's the only one from them I've heard thus far. I really need to dig deeper into Heavy/Prog Rock.

Yea, I'd say Godbluff is a lot more controlled and better written as whole, while still remaining complex and intersting throughout. So get it first. Songs like Scorched Earth and The Sleepwalkers are pure gold.

Pawn Hearts still loses me in its most hysterical, chaotic moments, but I've definitely come a long way in appreciating it.
Man-Erg is a favorite track.

Anyway, I'm thinking of picking up their Still Life album soon.

 

[black blood]

Master Of The Pit is quite possibly the best song ever, the riffs give me brain orgasms.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

The Sham Mirrors is really gay.

so is yr mum

LMI is by far my favourite Arcturus.

Get 'The Least We Can Do Is Wave to Each Other' too if you can

 

[DarkBliss]

Sure thing.Do you know of any other bands like VDGG?

 

[username345]

Not really. The closest I can think of is King Crimson, but VdGG are pretty unique. I think I've heard Änglagård being compared to VdGG, but I've never listened to them so I'm not sure. You might also be interested in Anekdoten, but they're more King Crimsonesque than VdG really.

 

[Alter]

Checking out Kénôse for the first time. I am loving this. Good EP.

 

[The Ozzman]

Yes. Kenose is pretty good
