‘check dodheimsgard‘

On topic / confessional time, I’d checked 666 a while back and decided to stick it on again recently… had to turn it off after like 7 mins because it was just that unsatisfying (played this instead, 😆)

Album Rating: 4.0

for clarity, I didn’t like it the first time either

Album Rating: 4.0

was there anything in particular that turned you off it

Album Rating: 4.5

Unsolicited opinion, I found 666 a bit higgeldy-piggeldy

Yeah, the combination of sounds really didn’t do much for me at all initially, whereas last week’s ‘attempt’ failed to get going as I lost patience quickly. I might try again, but don’t want to force it at this stage.

forcing it is never the right call

first two rule but Eld is where it's at

Album Rating: 5.0

eld fucks yes, listen to more from their catalogue demon

Album Rating: 4.0

RIITIIR and Heimdal are above all of their post-Eld shit. Still didn't listen to the first 3 albums as I understand it's not really the "same band"

Album Rating: 4.0

I've heard 11 of their albums Flug, lol (but yes, there are more). Incidentally RIITIIR was my least fave of the entire selection... well either that or Utgard.

Album Rating: 5.0

gotta let my newfound elitism hang out on enslaved lol.

idk why they would be a different band on the first 3 though, its a pretty logical progression from those.

Album Rating: 2.0

Yeah I think so too. They develop step by step between albums, which, I'd say, is a very rewarding journey to follow along.



Also Mardraum/Isa for best two Enslaved.



Also also a 2.0!!!? I must revisit this. But maybe it indeed is where I lost interest in them, post-Isa, with Ruun still being enjoyable but Vertebrae and this one not doing it for me. Hmmmm, something to look into 🤔

Album Rating: 4.0

Whoa, that is low Trif. I don't enjoy this as much as I used to, as I'm more interested in mid-era Enslaved these days (whereas I'd classify this as 'latter-day' or something). Hmm.

Album Rating: 2.0

Same, mid-era is where it's at for me. They were untouchable during that stretch.
