Really loving what this has to offer, especially the beauty of that last track.

I do wish they'd use the strings a little more though

Yeah Piss Crowns is an excellent track indeed.

@taxt yeah I totally agree. the 2 drone tracks together really broke up this album poorly, even though they're decent songs

i haven't heard the whole album yet (listening now) but I have to say I really do like the drones on this, even from the first listen they are very affecting

I love the atomosphere on the drone tracks, but i wish they were more shorter. also wish they wouldn't be next to each other. just too much drone for me i guess



the last track is absolutly amazing

the last three tracks sound like one track where the two drone tracks serve as a build-up for piss crowns. i think it works really well. if one of the drone tracks would've been the opening or closing track it could've been actually rather confusing

Thing is that you could take out the second track almost completely and this would still be the same if not better

Once again, Artuma is right on the money. The pacing of this record works really well for me, but I could understand why it wouldn't for others.

I get that. You're definitely right. It's just too much drone for me

I agree with that. It's just way too slow and dry with that much for me.

2.5 mongi? I get that the drone might not be for everyone but the first and last track warrant a 3 at the very least

Nope, it doesn't. The last track is really the only part that's amazing to me. The first track is...ok but doesn't really interest me.

So that's why you didn't get into Demon. Joking, of course.
