A Black Malachite Returns!

2017-06-01 by zaruyache | 57 Comments
American solo artist Black Malachite has returned from his self-imposed isolation to reveal the completion of his fourth full-length album, "Nightfall".

Taking longer to complete than any of his previous releases, "Nightfall" boasts a combination of post-rock and electronic-oriented instrumental pieces, with influences ranging from southern acoustic to ambient music.

Running a cool 49 minutes in length, "Nightfall" includes 12 tracks showcasing the California-based artist at the top of his artistic game.

Stream the album through Bandcamp:

"showcasing the California-based artist at the top of his artistic game."

He's standing a top a very small hill
or perhaps the top of the slide at a playground

@Game: I'm not ready to fully come back to Sputnik yet, so I'm not gonna log onto my main. Only reason I'm on here right now is because I just released Nightfall. I'm probably gonna go off the site again in a couple days to start working on new music / other music related material.

He's not ready to fully come back to Sputnik, so he makes an alt account just to receive more attention for his shit-post of an album.

Dude, are you really that desperate?

I was trying to give him the benefit of the doubt, but goddamn is Snide a sad, sad, sad creature.

It's an alt I made back in 2014, and basically never use. I don't feel like logging onto my main because I'm not ready to post in anything other than Black Malachite threads.

Still dont get why you cant just use your main for that, but alright.

@Adolf: It's a personal way of counteracting my need for attention. If I'm on my main account, I'll feel the need to post a lot, but if I'm on an alt, I won't really care about posting because it's an alt. I'll post on my main when I'm ready to be active on the site again.

it's possible to post internet comments without fawning for attention. it doesn't have to be a huge ordeal.

You guys are the ones making a huge ordeal about me posting on an alt, so in essence you're the ones fawning for attention here.

Your review was dank Zaru, I really dug it.

Agreed, this is subpar for a snide thread.

BlackMalachite

It's probably a subpar thread because Nightfall is far better than Rage (aka the last Black Malachite news article)

Deathconscious
June 6th 2017
27349 Comments


Possibly. Usually your threads turn into shitstorms.

BlackMalachite
June 6th 2017

Reasons why this one isn't a shitstorm:

1. This album is far better than my previous efforts; the shittier the release, the more attention it gets on here, hence why Rage and the self titled have the most attention wise, while so far this album and my second album Void are proving to be my least paid attention to on here.

2. I didn't post a list / whore it out on other Sputnik threads, which I usually do. I wasn't even gonna post a news article honestly but Zaru was kind enough to review it and post about it so it got some attention in a natural way instead of the Snide way.

3. The time difference between my last release (not counting the debut remaster) and this, is the longest out of any, and people can't do the (snide releases albums quicker than I finish in bed) meme for this one.
