Well actually we were starting a whole new debate. But if you want to let something go, don't rebut me and then say to move on! If you want to let something go, just move on without a rebuttal!

I quite like debating though so I didn't want to move on. Commenting over and over again about how much I like an album is much less interesting to me.

I think it is due to the chaotic layering of guitars. We'll never really know the techniques the band uses, I guess. There's a cool technique on the song 'The Crackled Book of Life' on the Drought EP that has this winding sort of circular riff that's hard to explain.

The guitarist's greatest talent, in my opinion, is his ability to make the guitar sort of 'speak' and he does a lot of riffs where it's almost like a conversation. He'll play one riff then the next riff he plays sort of responds to that one. I'm sure there's some term for this, but I'm not a guitarist, so.

"Well don't comment over and over about how you like the album and instead explain how they got that guitar tone on this thing."

Why the hell should I give a damn about how they got a guitar tone?
If there's one thing I've ever learnt about life, it's that knowing more about things I love usually tends to break down the walls of mysticism that allude me to begin with. Let's just agree that they did it with magic and move on.

Yeah, the scream in 'Wings of Predation' is one of pure agony and suffering. It sounds like he is literally falling to hell or something. Also, the song 'Devouring Famine' has a beautiful riff in the second part that's downright sorrowful sounding. A lot of people probably miss it because the song is so chaotic. In a music video I made for the song, there was a lot of famine and suffering included in the video, but at that part of the song to the end I included a sort of reprieve in imagery. Everything was sort of burning and destroyed therefore the suffering was destroyed, too.

I believe you will find if you look more into this bands guitar playing, that it is very hard to replicate it as it's his playing style that you hear more than anything. You could probably recreate a riffs tone or use the same effects (if you can guess what they used or get somewhat close) but it's very tough to capture someone's style of playing. I don't believe it's a worthy goal, anyway, it's very disrespectful, in a way, to do so.

"Lol if it stops your dick going floppy go for it but no-one ever made that argument to that extreme so you're going to have to keep posting"



Youre making the argument that music is objective, so shouldnt you be able to prove whether its good or bad?

there is no proving, only hypothesizing and supporting

I think believing music is objectively good or bad is as dumb as believing in objective morality.

Theres no can to be opened. Good and bad are not factual, period.

Granted, discussing a topic like that with someone called AdolfChrist on a Deathspell Omega thread is not a desirable point to be in life.

Once I listened to this album while falling asleep and my heart went to 250bpm and I had to go to the emergency room to get it checked out and then it never did it again.



Album triggers SVT confirmed
