Doap

Haven't heard this yet but I can't imagine it being anything less than extraordinary. Band has an amazing track record

As a Jew, I can.

"Album is killer if you can get past it being made by nazi sympathizers"

They've made it crystal clear they aren't in interviews. Spreading those accusations doesn't help.

i mean so is varg really but nobody gives a shit

As far as i can tell it sounds like everything else they've done but without the frog vox. The one-guitar sound does still bug me, though.

At least Jon kinda said he felt bad about it later, though? Not much of an improvement but still.

KRIEG!

Shit, will have to give this a go later

Can't wait

i am ready

being offended by bm in 2016 lmao

@Xenophanes So?

@Xenophanes Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo?

Indeed, nobody here gives a fuck about the ideology of a musician.

"morally" acceptable listening


lol

like you don't have to support them but come on, if the music's good then it's fucking good

excited to jam this

"Discussions too nuanced for anyone on this site tbh so I don't know why I brought it up "

The discussion has been done to death in lists (where it belongs) and has no place on the news page for an album stream.

Also, you're a pompous idiot.

@gameofmetal exactly you can listen and be like yeah, this rules but then not give them a dime because they're bigots or whatever and fuck them lol

Definitely gonna jam this soon.

Its music not fucking politics

Get a fucking grip and this is coming from a jew ffs

"Damn this site is dumber than usual but I suppose that happens when you get a bunch of cishet white men together to talk about metal lmbo"

Did you not read the part about you being a pompous idiot?

"This has all gone too far what have we done"

Arguing with Xeno is a lose lose situation for all involved.

*insert pigeon playing chess quote*

Genuinely curious, what's your issue here, Xeno? Do the band's alleged views make them not listenable to you? I mean, if the rumors are true, I can see that but I don't think you should be critical of other listeners necessarily. There have been countless cases throughout art history where odious artists have made great works. It is up to you if you can separate the artist from the art.

We should all talk about how Inquisition managed to release a great album finally.

FINALLYYYYYYYYYYY

Idk but when the discussion about certain musicians descends to being more about ethics rather than their craft, nothing productive will come of it. If a conversation like this needs to be had, it shouldnt be initiated in a thread for a bands new album stream. It just derails everything and is disingenous to the rest of the site. Jesus

"Damn this site is dumber than usual but I suppose that happens when you get a bunch of cishet white men together"

Hahaha, oh, youre one of those people.

@ bev No fuck you

Hey so let's talk about the music now. Track 8 is unusual for them

xeno never knew you were a fruit wtf, not that theres anything wrong with that

fair enough but theres no need to talk like a tumblr feminist.

This conversation made me want to listen to Hate Forest c:

"Ugh"

my thoughts exactly.

Ugh you 5'd The Mars Volta

Yeah Xeno I definitely get what you mean, but to me, I usually just ignore it as much as I can. There's plenty of examples, as you said, but none are really a problem for me since I just enjoy the riffs. I don't usually pay much attention to the lyrics anyway.

Honestly the most challenging album for me to ignore the lyrics in lately was that Ahnoni (spelling for sure) album since they were so ham fistedly written and lacked any form of nuance yet people were claiming they were practically genius. But that's another topic and has nothing to do with the views themselves in neither her album nor metal in general.

embarrassing thread good job sputnik community

Agreed. I could have written her crap lyrics in 5 minutes. Amazing that in the context of today's political rhetoric someone could be so highly praised for being a brash one trick pony considering extremes and embellishment are par for the course, but I digress.

Excited to jam this album.

This is pretty not bad for a sput thread really.

no they reminded me of Ahnoni...

also lol KILL

I'm not really feeling it but I haven't tried it with headphones yet so hopefully that makes a difference

Lots of double bass. Riffs pretty hard.

I find their lack of dynamics via one guitar line more offensive than their potential nazism tbh. Like get a more prominent rhythm guitar ffs.

eh. fuck this Nazi band

Blegh

oh hell fuck yes

now if only arghoslent could drop something

^ word

did pop eye quit the band?

I want someone to replace their vocals with Squidward.

The vocals on this album sound lazy, I think they are a step down from Obscure Verses.. maybe I just need more time with them. The music is amazing as always.

He's not too dissimilar from Abbath most of the time [2] It took me a while to get past this since I regarded his vocals as a ripoff, but I let that go, and now I enjoy them.

Abbath actually emotes when he does his frog croaks, though. When Dagon does it he sounds like he's just pinching his nose and speaking in a monotone the whole time.

i think his vocal style here is awesome. Inquisition slay cunts as usual.
