Haven't listened yet but I bet it djents.

OH SHIT! stoked as fuck to jam this

downloading now. fuckin amped

lfg boys

This so goood...

Is this on Beacons' level? I can only hope. I'd settle for Subsume though.

It's more similar to Fade. Post metal + post rock sound with no djent. On first listen I'd say it's almost as good as Fade too.

definitely not on beacons level but really damn solid. sitars right I hear lots of Fade and even Subsume in this

Beacons and Subsume are on the same level tho

hes no devin townsend thats for sure

"Beacons and Subsume are on the same level tho"

subsume is damn close, but falls a little short imo

beacons has those really great sad parts, but Subsume is just so solid.

great to see him back again

he was a huge influence in my early 20s

nice to see ya still pop your head out for a cloudkicker release scoot m/

I love cloudkicker this was unexpected for me

this is as peter griffin would say: frickin sweet

So far I only have Fade and The Discovery, both are great even with nice atmosphere. but Unending has a great colourful album cover so I might check it out.

He is consistently brilliant

wow this project still alive?
NEATO

Awesome surprise. It's great

'It's more similar to Fade. Post metal + post rock sound with no djent.'

Never heard any of this guy's stuff, but this is how you pique my interest.

'It's more similar to Fade. Post metal + post rock sound with no djent.'

Really? Fade is amazing, I would like some more post metal + post rock.

"Never heard any of this guy's stuff"

Holy shit, get on it Demon! The dude is brilliant, and diverse.

at least check the live record lol it has the most bass than on any of his records

his first release has tons of djent

he really branched out after releasing a string of EPs and experimented with loud/soft dynamics

beacons is his masterwork

oooh I need to jam this

HAPPY FUCKING FRIDAY TO ME

subsume [2]

I prefer both Fade and Let Yourself be Huge to Beacons, but I know I'm in a minority here.

they’re not really comparable

lybh is a complete 180 from beacons and fade is him experimenting with post-grunge

Totally

The new album could end up being my favourite of his, and that is saying a lot given how Beacons, LYBH, and Subsume have been such massive and personal albums for me. It's absolutely incredible.

"fade is him experimenting with post-grunge"

Umm...what?

i like it

Could've been cool but Ben doesn't have style when it comes to these electronic drum beats. He could've made a sleek release. Sounds like mainstream pop drums. For me, they really take from what could've been a very engaging album. I think this is a personal gripe though as most seem to enjoy it and find this cohesive. Just doesn't do it for me.

the opening minutes of Xaoc made me sigh in relief, I missed Cloudkicker

The transition from Wall into Void, sweet fucking christ

no fucking kidding

Fantastic as always apart from the opener

Never heard any of this guy's stuff [2]

But it sounds good. Although I wish I hadn't seen Animals' complaint about the drums. Cuz yeah.

I'm sure longtime listeners will disagree but I think if you're new to Cloudkicker you need to go straight to Subsume.

And Signal/Noise off the Little Histories EP

"Fantastic as always apart from the opener"

man I was so giddy when I first heard it. just reminded me of classic cloudkicker mood setting

subsume represents a synthesis of all his works so i would agree that its the best place to start

these guys are great

and this album rules

How long is Unending?

57 mins

It's around half an hour, not counting the vinyl mixes.

Prolly yall know this, but you can DL it for free.

If you go to Bandcamp, you should buy it if you can. It's name your price. Support local artists.

Goes without saying, I thought.

ye always give ben a few bucks. After actually making an account on Bandcamp I went back and bought all of his albums just so they'd always be in my library.

finally listened, pretty sweet. might bump to a 4 in time but it feels a little short/underdeveloped, especially for an LP, and just leaves me wanting more

I think the length works fine imo.
