Dynamic songwriting, riffz, atmosphere, and minor post-rock experimentation to boot. Eat your heart out

Norway.





Now that I think about it someone in Norway probably already tried to eat someone else's heart. Black

metal.

Two Hunters never had enough content for me. The style and implementation is great, but its only 3 full songs and an ambient intro piece, and one of those songs is half ambient too. Wish they woulda kept "To Reveal" on the nomal edition of the album.

Two hunters was on the shorter side but this albums a bit lengthy and tends to drag a bit. Both albums rule but Two Hunters takes the prize for best cascadian bm

Well yeah. Does have competition from Fauna's Avifauna, though.



And yes Cleansing is originally ~5 mins longer. The full version was also vinyl only for some reason, but it's also on youtube and filesharing sites.

"Does have competition from Fauna's Avifauna, though."



I was sort of lukewarm on Avifauna. Might have to give it another go.

It rules so much tho! It's basically just three giant slabs of the same style, but it's got great melodies and nice stomping heavy drumz.

idk, it just doesn't have much oomph. lots of pretty acoustic guitar and stuff but it takes forever to move between sections. Soaring Into Earth's last half is the same pattern repeated ad nauseum. and it's a nice pattern, but...yeah.

I wish their songs would be more dynamic and structured than basic acoustic/blackmetal/acoustic/black metal, but they still really pulled it off well on that record. Here's hoping the next one they release in another five years will be even more experimental. I thought there was a soundcloud file of their performing the next album live, but I've since lost it.

on that note I started listening to Avifauna again and apparently I ripped the CD at 128 kbps instead of 320 ughh. Now I have to unwrap myself from my snuggy and go upstairs to re-rip it :/
