9th January 2021: Al-Kamar - Karetakenkadai (avant-garde blackgaze, 2013)
I can see why people struggle with this, and I did too for similar reasons - the production is
absolutely horrific. Not just an on-trend black metal kind of lo-fi, it's actually just recorded
poorly, with bad mics and bad takes. Adding to that all the genre hopping and it ends up as an
utter mess, but somehow I don't fully despise it - because it's creative. Blackgaze has become
saturated with samey sounding projects and this certainly sounds nothing like any other kind of
blackgaze. There melodies are j-pop influenced and the heavy parts pull from noise rock and drone
as much as black metal. It's a fascinating release that sounds like utter garbage, and it's a pity
this band kind of dropped off because I would have liked to have heard where they could take this
sound.
