"Julie Christmas will ruin this "

id agree with this if cult of luna was still any good these days either but they arent so she's just going to make a pretty average thing even worse.

@relinquished look at me with a straight face and say that Vertikal is even remotely as good as Eternal Kingdom, SATH and Salvation dude.

Its a good album but its literally got shit on their last 3 releases. post-metal is a decaying genre and its abundantly clear through the fact that isis is defunct, cult of lulu is slowly running out of steam, and neurosis' last album was their worst in like two and a half decades by a long shot. not to mention literally any other post-metal giant i can think of is releasing an abundance of crap lately.

pelican with the queef vocals, rosetta with the scenecore album art and all the derivative glory, intronaut is softcock now, russian circles lol red sparowes lol we could go all day

I can respect if you like Julie Christmas, thats perfectly fine and dandy. I personally find her to be one of the most insufferable singers of all time, opinions and what-not, but the fact alone that post-metal is dying makes me pretty not wrong regardless of whether or not Christmas floats your boat.

I'll say I like SATH and Salvation more than Eternal Kingdom and that EK is on par to Vertikal

straight face like I just came back from war

you're right bout p-m shitting on itself, trust me I remember when it blossomed and decayed into pelican delay pedal jackoffs

but hey we still have Amenra

I am biased towards EK, its my fav Cult of Lulu due to sentiment/nostalgia all that cheeseball shit

also the fact that i've been moving away from the genre since probably impacts my opinion on vertikal as well, maybe if i had heard it a few years ago i wouldnt think it was as inferior as i do.

but yeah true i have nothing bad to say about amenra

I got that same sentistalgia with EK but stronger with the previous 4.

I championed sludge and doom from the start but thought post-metal would be interesting while it lasted. that's what happens when you take away the hardcore element of it all and put more longwinded passages filled with nothing.

i mean idc about godspeed either, but their last 2 albs had a bit of buzz. more to do with reuniting, and being p4k/hipster darlings. love sigur ros tho

well the news of the record got leaked hard by a hacker so at the least the band can do is release a trailer for an album that's still a couple months from being released.

"2 years ago? barber's more on point."

I mean I can remember being kind of into a battle of mice two or so years ago, and at that time she was all over "favorite vocalists" lists on here, now she's apparently the female Chad Kroger.


Also this teaser was useless.

I think they just tossed out the teaser asap because the info was leaked. I doubt they took much time on it but yes they could have thrown something more substantial in.

@gmork 2 years ago Julie Christmas sucked just as much as she does now. 4 years ago she also sucked just as much.

Haha I'm not saying this as a huge fan or debating whether she sucks or not, I was just surprised to see all of the hate in this thread given how people used to talk about her here.

I don't hate or love her vocals, sometimes they work for me and sometimes they don't.

Well I guess you're all in for a treat. Julie's basically a non-presence on the track that just got released.
