Pretty excited to hear the full album. Will likely review.

Sounds like StS all right.
Doesn't seem like the recent band drama had any impact on the sound
|
| |
Sounds promising. V was kind of a let down imo.

band drama?

Hoping this is more like their earlier stuff. More grit, less shine.
|
| |
they're not teasing my cucc thats for sure
|
| |
v was indeed more lukewarm than expected. The Migration is magnifiscent, though.
Band drama? [2]

Enjoy, my friends!
|
| |
Looks like islnds sound is coming through more with the synth. 1:15 reminds me of Atlas Novus, would rather have more chill STS, their juggy stuff doesn't interest me too much.
|
| |
Production quality is slick AF too.
|
| |
Sounds much closer to their The Collective sound. Promising.
|
| |
Wonder if the guests got paid.
*zing*
|
| |
sure sounds like chris letchford
|
| |
this sounds really good
|
| |
The band drama made me lose all respect for Chris
|
| |
Same here
|
| |
Me too. Plus this new business of pulling in lots of guests on songs (the unmentioned ones probably being clowns from generic djent bands) and the trendy hyper-clean production with fakey drum sound means STS is probably dead to me. Shame too, because they were my favorite band for years

link to drama please?
|

Am I the only one that could give a fuck less? What- he didn't pay them enough? Sounds like that's the case, so ask for more and if you don't get more then quit. They did. Situation resolved.
I don't get how people get so wrapped up in the business of band members like they are personal acquaintances so much so that shit like this would ruin a band for you. Did you lose respect for the music, too? You guys act like musicians are all great human beings.
BRB while I go 5 some Burzum.
|
| |
DAMN I read up, this guy seems like a miser and a terror to tour with
|
| |
"link to drama please?"
TL;DR The main guitarist didn't pay the rest of his bandmates whilst he lived in luxury, apparently he's an asshole according to most people who've toured with him too. He makes cool music tho so I couldn't give less of a fuck.
|
| |
Honestly, Christ Letchford's solos are the least interesting part of Scale the Summit. His sense of melody is just so all over the place. Scale the Summit excels with sweet riffs, grooves and chord progressions. The solos feel like exercises.
|
| |
lol drummerboy, pretty shitty description.
@Sandor, there's a link in the comments.
|
| |
or you know, you could not take sides and vilify a guy when you have absolutely no certainty of what even transpired
it doesn't look good for chris, but i'm not gonna take sides because whats the fucking point, I don't know shit I'll stay out of it
also, christ letchfords solos are fucking bomb stfu jfc, his phrasing is incredible
of course chris lives in luxury, his wife is a fucking best selling author
|
| |
And on top of it all he left Strandberg and went to Kiesel whaaaaaat
|
| |
scale the budget lol
|
| |
^Can't remember who originally said that but it's the best thing to come out of all this. Laughed for a solid minute the first time I read it.
|
| |
If any of that info is remotely true, then I suggest Chris and Jari (of Wintersun) team up sometime in the near-future.
|
| |
It's true
|
| |
Eh he’s obviously an ass but which of us wouldn’t be a bit of an ass in his position. Stoked on the album.
|
| |
He's definitely an ass and honestly, a lot of us would not be that much of an ass in his position. This is coming from a longtime STS fan. He has a line of personal products that he solely profits off of, and with what shared profits there are, doesn't share with his bandmates? Not remotely equitable.

New song
https://youtu.be/DmqVNgfIoOA
|
| |
It's lame as hell. Go figure
|
| |
It's pretty bad yeah
|
| |
Just like 3/4 of V it feels like Chris wrote 9 licks and then was too busy going through Tosin's trash to organize or transition between them and so leaves that up to the listener.
|
| |
lol rip sts, not that i didnt see this coming but holy fuck that song is brutal
mix is weird, bass is just flat w/ no groove wtf, jumpy weird transitions all over
|
| |
I love V though, Migration and Collective are better, but V is solid af to me
|
| |
Song sounds like it was written in Guitar Pro and then the DI was run into an amp simulator. Very disjointed.
|
| |
Guitar nerds composing music to impress other guitar nerds is a blossoming musical tradition.
|
| |
its called prog bud
|
| |
I happen to think prog is at its finest when songwriting is a focus. When technical savagery is an ingredient, not the whole recipe.
|
| |
i was joking
|
| |
Thought you might have been a guitar nerd. I've been told by people that AAL and Polyphia are better than any artist that ever was. People be havin opinions and shit. I dun like it
|
| |
"New song
https://youtu.be/DmqVNgfIoOA"
What a blatant ripoff of Physical Education.
|
| |
Haha yeah, it easily reminded me of recent AAL
|
| |
yeah it reminded me of AAL and I think AAL are pretty bland so no wonder I don't like it
|
| |
boring af
|
| |
Another new song. I would say it is a clear improvement over the previous one (or at least the opening solo is nice)
