You do listen to a ton of music, so that’s probably good going, haha. Love Yellow Eyes and Falls of Rauros as well, but this speaks to me on an (almost) spiritual level. That looks wanky written down.

Sounds fine man. I feel the same way

Yellow Eyes and Falls of Rauros are my top 2 at the moment lol.

Nice picks. Still gotta give that Yellow Eyes album a few more spins.

Album Rating: 4.5

It’s my metal AOTY so far and second overall after State Faults. So damn amazing.

Album Rating: 3.5

The song-writing is so subtly creative on that Yellow Eyes album, I bumped it earlier Hawks. Tut tut tut. Thought you lived here? I won’t have ‘sleeping’ as an excuse.

Andy Marshall signed with Season Of Mist

Album Rating: 4.0

:c

what's bad about that?

Good thing this is 4 tracks long. Don't think I could stand more than that. Good album overall

Album Rating: 4.5

Season of Mist gets shit because they have some problematic bands like Inquisition. Personally I don’t freak out too much about this stuff because all just capitalism stuff. Bands put their livelihoods first in these situations. Props if a band can afford to turn down SoM but not everyone can.

Aren’t most bands on there clean tho?

Drudkh, Destroyer 666, Shining have some pretty bad stuff in their history

Album Rating: 4.5

Tis a minority though for sure, albeit more than I immediately thought

Album Rating: 4.0

I find Drudkh to be somewhat questionable honestly. I mean they could have changed, but they have some shady stuff.

yea yea because dudes with a cultural heritage of casual antisemitism are known to spontaneously do a "oop my bad" for no reason when there's no evidence for it.

I mean, Sayenko himself came out and gave a statement saying the band had no connections to fringe politics. Make of that what you will

Album Rating: 4.5

Which means fucking nothing to me and should mean nothing to anyone. When a band says “we have no connections to politics” they’re just trying to dodge the accurate accusations of nazism. If they said “we condemn nazism and condemn our actions/associations with nazis in the past” then Id fucking believe them but they NEVER do that for a very specific reason.

^ that

to satisfy the masses every questionable metal musician is required to do the Neige:

"I never was involved in any way with any political, racist or xenophobic ideologies. I was just a musician in Peste Noire, most of the time session musician, I never took part of the lyrics or philisophy of the band. At the "Aryan Supremacy" period I was 15 years old and I didn't think about the consequence of recording some music with that band, it always was just musical participation for me. Alcest has NOTHING to do with any hate-based philosophy like racism and as a person I am absolutely NOT into nazism, racism and such ideologies."
