kalkwiese 01.21.25	I might see them live too, that's really exciting
zakalwe 01.21.25	I’ve heard they’re unimoressive
kalkwiese 01.21.25	I would say they take couple of listens, but whatever phrasing you prefer, I guess :D
Zac124 01.21.25	My ranking is almost opposite to yours lol. 5, 4, 2, 1, 3. But yeah, this is a band I really want to see live too. Their theatrics just seems so fun.
kalkwiese 01.21.25	Did you do a ranking? I would be interested in why you like the debut so much. Maybe another perspective can help me to appreciate it more
Dewinged 01.21.25	1 is 1 for me too, yeah, it also made me a fan. Prequelle Meliora Opus Impera Infestissuman Would be my ranking
someone 01.21.25	Meliora at 4 is crazy but ok
kalkwiese 01.21.25	Idk I found it a bit boring tbh. Maybe the revelation will hit me one day
Drifter 01.21.25	i would agree with dewi's ranking but i haven't heard impera. and maybe i would swap meliora for number 1 out of nostalgia but i remember really digging prequelle when i finally got around to it
someguest 01.21.25	false metal
iHaveSex 01.21.25	Bring back seventies true rock
Balerion 01.21.25	I bet rankings for these guys are all over the place but Meliora is definitely 1 for me personally
Wildcardbitchesss 01.21.25	“ false meta” who gives a shit. Meliora is 1 for me but after that I don’t really give a shit lol
Wildcardbitchesss 01.21.25	“ I bet rankings for these guys are all over the place” yep i agree. Reckon people that have been into them for a while probably will put Meliora or Opus at 1, those that got into them when they started getting poppier probably like the other 3 more. All are quality records imo
Christbait 01.21.25	Meliora is 1 for me too. Front-to-back great album.
Wildcardbitchesss 01.21.25	It just has it all and does it all so fucking well. He Is is such a ridiculous song and it’s insane that it came out so good
Wildcardbitchesss 01.21.25	Personally 5. Prequelle 4. Infest 3. Impera 2. Opus 1. Meliora And tbh 7” of Satanic Panic is probably better than Prequelle for me lol, those two tracks are better than literally everything on that record no joke
Balerion 01.21.25	@Wildcard no doubt. I saw them live first on a small stage at Lolla in 2013. Crazy to see how far Tobias has taken this project. Pumped to see where they go next
Egarran 01.21.25	Infestissumam is all about Ghuleh and Year Zero.
Wildcardbitchesss 01.21.25	[2] Monstrance Clock as well, all three are among their best.
neekafat 01.21.25	4 is 1 now they just do bad 80s riffs
someone 01.21.25	ima horny fuck and a basic bitch anyway here it is 5. Impera 4. Infestissumam 3. Opus 2. Prequelle 1. Meliora
someone 01.21.25	"And tbh 7” of Satanic Panic is probably better than" most music ever made? yes
Wildcardbitchesss 01.21.25	yeah true true Both are honestly top 10 ghost tracks
Zac124 01.21.25	@kalkwiese The debut just sounds like early Candlemass-lite (I mean this as a compliment even though it doesn't like it) and it is super solid and consistent at achieving that sound. So many amazing riffs, especially in Prime Mover. And the choruses are just so catchy without ever trying too hard which I think is what the problem is with their newer records for me. Just got in the mood to spin this album again actually.
Tundra 01.21.25	Zenith is their best song
Wildcardbitchesss 01.21.25	honestly good take tundra respect, not my favorite but it’s a good un
Zac124 01.21.25	Never heard of that song before. Need to check.
Wildcardbitchesss 01.21.25	B side from the Meliora sessions. If you have Spotify it’s on the 13 Commandments comp
Zac124 01.21.25	On first impression it sounds exactly what I expect a B side from Meliora to sound like. Kinda average so I think it was best left out, although I can see it growing on me. Anyway, their best song is probably Prime Mover.
JDubb 01.22.25	Need to add in the EPs! Popestar is pretty damn awesome.
rockarollacola 01.22.25	1. Meliora 2. Prequelle 3. Opus Eponymous 4. Infestissumam 5. Impera Meliora is hands down one of the best metal records of the past 20 years.
Wildcardbitchesss 01.22.25	[2] Meliora is flat out incredible and I hope that they make another record just as good but they haven’t really come close imo and it’s been nearly a decade now.
Christbait 01.23.25	I think he's sort of moved on from the 70s style proto-metal influences that drove Meliora. Or, he still dabbles in it but doesn't write whole albums meant to mimic that sound. I dunno, he's been hit or miss since that album for me.
LucretiaMyReflection 01.23.25	Having been a fan since 2013, my ranking is totally the opposite. Opus is always #1
Wildcardbitchesss 01.23.25	I just wish it were a little more diverse. Every single song is killer but they all start to blend together in my head after Elizabeth
Egarran 01.23.25	That's weird.
