I forget that one black metal chip tune band that was themed off of computer coding. Yeah this sounds vague, but it was kind of trendy on bandcamp a couple months ago.



EDIT: Ahh. Master Boot Record.

ehh I've always found that "not unlike" involves a lesser degree of similitude than just saying "like"

just like "not bad" involves less enjoyment than "good"

The snow has fallen and raised this white mountain on which you will die and fade away in silence...

I used to play it thru the speakers at work, a few times it would get to the grain 'hey mate I think there's something wrong with the speakers'



'speakers are fine mate you just cant appreciate a powerful stylistic shift to conclude a dark blackened neo post folk cascadian doom metal classic you pleb'



'yeah well i'm not ever renting from here again you pretentious wanker'



and several months later blockbuster was gone and I was unemployed rip

The first half to 2/3s of this album is a 6/5. 'Limbs' & 'Fire Above, Ice Below' espeially are mind-blowing.

Only real negative was my initial boredom during the last track, does it really need to be 18 minutes long? Could be a grower but seemed unecessarily drawn out on first listen. Think it's my favourite Agalloch so far though (heard 'The Mantle/Pale Folklore' as well).
