I Want to Be with You is absolutely perfect

Sadness continues to work from his base of depressive black metal to meld his style with blackgaze and create an interesting brand of fuzzy, depressing, epicly uplifting blackened post-metal.

It's a really great album. This is the kinda melancholic music that makes me feel somehow hopeful.rFave tracks: "i want to be with you", "in the distant travels"

this is genuinely a masterpiece
touching, heartfelt, dreamy - lightning in a bottle to capture the very essence of blackgaze
so perfectly

Fusing depressive bm with Deafheavenism and other blackgaze aesthetics, Sadness delivers one fucking effing great song ("I Want to Be With You") with other tunes that scratch the "uplifting but sad ):" vibe without quite attaining the magnum opus' exhilaration ("Somewhere" is not too far off).

21st February, 2022: Sadness - I Want to Be There (blackgaze, 2019)
It's pretty clear why this is the breakout record for Sadness - I mean, look at that title
and that album art. I saw this being played by a younger sister of a friend on spotify and
realised that somehow this project shot into the underground mainstream without me even
noticing, and honestly the guy deserves it, with all his work ethic and consistency. But on
the actual release, well, I'm not so sure. It's good, and it's probably the most hazey of the
Sadness releases of this era, but it's no Circle of Veins is it? The ingredients that Damien
has honed over the years are all there - in particular those spinechilling clean vocals, but
it all seems fairly run of the mill for him. Maybe I'm just not getting it yet.

It sounds like other sadness but I feel a more cheerful and hopeful atmosphere.
