|
 | DarkNoctus it's SO good. makes their last album feel like a warm up to this one, listening to it now actually!
|
| Hawks Yes bro the most recent one! I didn't like the latest Abriction album at all, but this split is ****ing amazing.
|
| Hawks Have you heard the Sadness/Abriction split yet?
|

|

|
| Hawks Lmaooo that would be my guess!!
|
| Hawks Hell yeah bro! Sorry for the late response I was banned lmao.
|
| Hawks For sure bro. Definitely got some crustier Windir vibes also. Give the new Frail Body a jam bro. ****ing amazing blackgaze/chaotic screamo combo.
|
| Hawks Yeah bro that s*** ripz.
|
| Hawks Damn I haven't jammed that band in ages!! Gonna have to change that soon.
|
| Hawks Its friggin insane absolutely. M///
|

|
| Hawks HELL YEAH BUDDY!!!!

|
| Hawks Have not lol. Will czech today! Also so ****ing hype for new Slow. m///
|
| Hawks The hell you been at???
|
| Hawks Niiiiice will do bro!
|
| Hawks Hell yeah bro that band is amazing. I've been jamming a lot of ambient and experimental s*** lately.
|
| Hawks Me too bro and I have no ****ing clue!!!
|
| Hawks I'm heartbroken man. I cried pretty much all day yesterday. Thank god my wife was with me.
|
| Hawks Right! Came back to terrible news though. I miss Brandon. :[[[
|
 | MarsKid Don't forget to jam WRVTH my man! It is well worth the trip.
|
| Hawks Yes brother got married 6 months ago! Yeah I've been pretty preoccupied of course but I'm trying to be around more. I'll be looking out for your review for sure. :]
|
| Hawks YESSSSSSS hows it going brother???
|
 | Sevengill No, I actually haven't! The name kinda turned me off haha. I'll give it a look though, given that you dig it even more than Skyforest.
|
 | dbizzles Awesome. I'm glad you enjoyed it. It doesn't get the attention it deserves, but it's a somewhat challenging listen in that it's so.... inaccessible lol, so that's bound to happen.
|
 | Trifolium Ah nice, was already hoping more sessions would make it unravel a bit. Really sounds like it is worth the energy and the investment, seems to be a record that has much to give! I'll let you know, here or in the thread!
|
 | Atari sounds awesome. I'll add it to my list of albums to check out - cheers!
|
| Sevengill I will fight for it as it would do the same for me
|
| Hawks I?m going to try to make a new one soon lol and yes I just jammed it it?s so amazing as expected. m/
|
 | Pon thank you glad you liked it
|
| Pon https://www.sputnikmusic.com/user/sinternet I think he's okay fren
|
 | Observer Yeah its another solid one by them definitely. Destinity are like that as well. Last album they did is one of my favs
|
| Observer Hey man, check out Burden of Life's newest, my most recent review. It has a lot I think you'd enjoy. Also the new Lunarsea was released a bit back, and its another great one. Not in our database yet though.
|
 | necropig Glad to hear. Look forward to whatever shiz you'll be reviewing. Keep safe bruh
|
 | Dedes Citadel profile pic niccce
|
| necropig Haven't seen your name about in a while
|
 | DungeonBoy lol, dude, I added that Necronomidol album hoping someone would check it out. I have no idea what to rate it. It's so weird. I listen to Atarai No Tsumeato a few times a week and just laugh.. and then sing along...
|
| DungeonBoy Dude, I like it a lot! I've only heard the two songs on Bandcamp, but the melodies are really fantastic and the way it layers and builds is very well done. It definitely hit a sweet spot for me! I need to check out the whole thing.
|
 | zaruyache Unreqvited rly? It's just like Ghost Bath but prettier :3
|
 | Rastapunk Here is my review Saor, second article :)http://rastapunkreviews.blogspot.fr/Loved the album, can't wait to receive the CD :)
|
 | BallsDeep ah well ill consider it a serendipitous discovery then really enjoyed it, cheers haha
|
| Voivod I will I will, it's just that the absence of real riffs in the album's first half is a bit off-putting.
|
 | Tomstein Cool man glade you liked it. :)
|
| Sevengill https://soundcloud.com/dzo-nga/a-seventh-age-of-fire-premaster
|
 | MO man thanks for the support broseph m/ we are planning on recording something new soon and much better quality so i'll be keeping the sput posted
|
| DarkNoctus thank you! i'm hoping to have the whole album done in a few months time [:
|
| zaruyache no prob! Feel free to bump that list whenever you find something else worth adding. I kinda want to keep it up-to-date for the rest of the year if I can.
|
| MO you in Ottawa? my band is: http://www.sputnikmusic.com/bands/...From-the-Deep/68717/
|
| DarkNoctus the of solitude and solemn album is going to be uhh... very different. i have a clip of the demo of the title track on soundcloud if you're interested: https://soundcloud.com/joenoctus/of-solitude-and-solemn-falter-rough-sample
|
| DarkNoctus well the next ethereal shroud album AND the next of solitude and solemn albums are both written but i'm going to take my time with them, i'm trying to focus on work right now. i'll let the ideas mature and get myself some cash so i can upgrade my gear before recording. but i estimate the of solitude and solemn album will come out first. [:
|
| DarkNoctus idk man, listening now but it just seems like a pandering squeeky-clean copy of every other folk metal band. it's just so uninteresting. there's no identity to it.
|
| DarkNoctus it's great, right?? the vocal harmonies, riffs, interesting songwriting and nigh-on perfect execution of a totally new style of metal. i really hope it does well.
|
 | parksungjoon http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/70878/Thanatos-Emerging-from-the-Netherworlds/
|
| parksungjoon but i'm glad you like them. although i have to say i found their 2nd ep to be very lacking
|
| parksungjoon yeah i saw that actually. saw that they have an LP out now as well, which i'm going to have to check. had only heard their two EPs previously
|
 | iloveyouall nah, just need to not take sput so seriously. it makes things easier... and for real, never stop listening to new music. the music world is yours for the taking, and atm you're just scratching the surface (as am i)... enjoy! :)
|
| iloveyouall we were never not cool, my man. everyone's entitled to an opinion. :)
|
 | Asdfp277 i just naturally don't get angry, my mom's side of the family's like that. it's made better by the fact that i have strong beliefs against anger and violence, and that i take antidepressants, so...
|
| Asdfp277 i'm actually always 100% fine with everybody, i haven't felt anger since 2008 tbh, just don't try to discredit someone's opinion because of any reason outside of the music itself, that's rude, don't try to categorize and u'll be fine. Also, recognize that it's important for somebody to be honest w/ themselves if they wanna get into new genres
|
 | Gnocchi well he's almost two so the head banging is already a thing lol
|
| Gnocchi Yeah I took some time off reviewing when i had my kid and than the demotions came around and I got chopped for it. I was like well f***, if I'm not wanted which is the main reason I stayed away. But everything is coming back up Milhouse so to speak,
|
| Gnocchi Don't feel dickish dude. If you want to try again you can go smack out a discussion on the review i posted earlier. I'm trying to get back in the game. Let's see if i can get my contrib tag back
|
| Gnocchi Not all discussion ends where it starts, more often than not it will get stuck in the middle and you'll have weird feelings about the entire thing.
|
| Gnocchi It's not all bad man, at the end of the day you need to consider the fact you're talking to sixteen yr olds who don't know why they like what they like. It's a peer thing. "It must be cool to hate band A cause that guy likes it, I can't even explain why".
|
| Voivod Btw, another Greek band worth checking out is Goetic Equivalent, killer stuff!
|
| Voivod Don't mention it man! Also, thanks for reminding me of that band, I add so many outfits in Sputnikm, I'm bound to lose track of them more often than not.
|
| parksungjoon well review's done and hype vetted it. gonna wait until the staff fixes the album cover and then gonna post it. and yeah it's practically unknown on this site, the only ratings are one of my alts (which i think i might ask for a wipe on tbh) and one of my friends who never stuck around sputnik for long
|
| parksungjoon well i gone and done it... spur of the moment kinda thing. not sure when i'll be submitting it as i still want to edit some of the band details and the site is throwing some errors my way.
|
| parksungjoon eh it's been a long time since i've written so idk
|
| parksungjoon not for years but i did kind of get the drive to write a particular one last night... spooky eh? no idea when that'll transpire if ever
|
| Sevengill yo ports I remixed the album and added a new song if you're interested. Dzo-nga.
|
 | Spacesh1p All good man, yeah, not a very well known group. I put them up for Camian's obscure metal tourney recently, haha.
|
| Spacesh1p If you didn't like the transitions of Unquestionable Presence, check Creepmime "Chiaroscuro." Has a lot of progressive elements and is a bit more straight DM.
|
 | Kusangii It's been years since I listened to 1184, and I haven't heard their other stuff so I should get on that ASAP! Vocals didn't click with me first either but they grew on me a lot, and now I love them. Hopefully they'll have the same effect on you! The riffing is undeniable though
|
| Kusangii Forgot to mention that the album only consists by clean vocals, and I'm not sure how you feel about that in thrash. Hopefully you'll like 'em too.
|
| Kusangii Haha sorry man, I often forget to respond to my inbox. There's a big chance I might be suffering from Amensia, considering how awful I am at responding lol. Since you love the hell out of the new Vektor, I assume you'd love By Inheritance by Artillery as well. I was about to rec the new First Fragment as well but I saw you posted in the thread. We seem to have pretty similar taste in metal, so you can share a rec too if you'd like!
|
| Kusangii Pretty much the same here man, there are only a few thrash acts that manages to capture my attention like Vektor does. The balance between utter chaos and pretty/epic brilliance is something I often miss in the genre, but not this time! Since you're on the thrash-wagon, you wouldn't mind a rec would you?
|
| Sevengill xD sure, something br00tal like that
|
| Sevengill that makes us best friend rightright?
|
| Sevengill Awesome, thanks. I'm glad you liked it. Made some final edits and posted a news article. Hopefully the album will get some hits.
|
| Kusangii Haha, must be a cool feeling for sure. I'll follow your lead if I ever get kids lol. Yeah album is insane, I honestly can't remember the last time a thrash metal album has blown me away like Terminal Redux. And I'm not even that big on thrash honestly
|
| Sevengill https://dzo-nga.bandcamp.com/ It's like...Darkspace with bass instead of drums? I'm not sure how to describe it. Tell me what you think.
|
| Sevengill hey man I'm finishing up a blackened ambient project and could use your opinion on it. you have 35 minutes lying around?
|
| Kusangii I just read your post about your son predicting Terminal Redux being a concept album about space. Idk how he managed to do that, but one things for sure; You should be a very proud father, man. He looks like a very promising boy, both intellectually and musically!
|
| Hawks For sure bro, **** people lol. I brought it back though so we can continue our awesome music discussions Hahahaha.
|
| Hawks I did, I'll bring it back in a few days, but there's some drama on there involving my best friend and his whore ex girlfriend and her fat hippo looking friend so I'm keeping it away for a second. ****ing people man, I hate them all lol.
|
| DarkNoctus oh man, i didn't read it, haha. i'll give it a read today.
|
| DarkNoctus hell ****ing yeah! sorry about the delay in response, it didn't notify me for some reason. jumalten aika is absolutely stunning, i'm frankly jealous of their writing prowess. they were a HUGE influence on my work so to see them still making amazing records is astounding.
|
| Voivod Don't mention it man, and your description fits the album perfectly.
|
| Hawks Yeah bro I honestly can't stand it, but whatever I'll keep it around lol.
|
| Hawks I deactivated last night, but I just brought it back hahahaha. I hate Facebook, but I need it to communicate with certain people such as yourself. :]
|
| zaruyache i like good atmos bm that's up-tempo and Nhor is pretty cascadian-y which I also love
|
| Hawks It's not letting me add you for some reason....
|
| Hawks Damn I know bro, you've been around since I first joined. Crazy how long ago it was now that we're mentioning it. But yeah dude I have Facebook, send me a link for yours and I'll add you. :]
|
| Hawks Yeah bro it's one of the best bm albums I've heard this year easily, although there's been a lot of good bm that I've heard this year so far.
|
| Hawks Thanks dude. It really struck me so I had to write something up.
|
| Hawks Best rec ever bro. Album slays so ****ing hard I had to review it already, check it out. :]
|
| Hawks Coldworld cover huh? Hahaha gonna jam the album now. m/
|
 | Anthemic Good luck with that. It needs one, it only has 6k views on YT.
|
| Anthemic I KNOW RIGHT? I actually added it to Sputnik when I heard it on Youtube. It's an amazing album.
|
 | BallsToTheWall Thanks man. I like that dude's music. A Light and Blurry lights.
|
| Hawks Going to check now bro.
|
| Voivod Agreed, good and aggressive bm, that's that though.
|
| Hawks Just added the album to the system too. :]
|
| Hawks Yeah that def looks like something I'd dig. Will jam tonight bro. m/
|
| Hawks Hahahaha I feel you bro, especially about not going into the threads lol. But I pretty much disagree with you about everything when it comes to Neurosis and me and you usually agree about a lot of things hahaha.
|
| Hawks Bro are you trying to get me back for 2.5ing Citadel by giving all Neurosis albums those god awful ratings? :[
|
| Voivod A random whim; Check this German black metal band and tell me what you think - http://brannthorde.bandcamp.com/album/auf-teufel-komm-raus
|
| Voivod Thanks man, there's a lot of good obscure stuff out there.
|
| Hawks Yeah bro I'm trying to chill out though, I spend wayyyy too much money on the mary jane lol.
|
| Hawks I smoke too much reefer dude I forget a lot of s*** hahahaha. But I didn't see your review I'll check it now.
|
| Hawks Wait.... Did I know that you were AngelPhoenix? I don't remember, but I feel like you had to have told me that before hahaha.
|
| DarkNoctus i really love the first track but i can't say i'm liking the others much, we'll see what repeated listens do [:
|
| DarkNoctus releasing two new eps this year - one for of solitude and solemn and one for ethereal shroud ;]
|
| DarkNoctus i'm on an indefinite review hiatus, i'm afraid ]: i'm focussing on my own music right now, not listening to much new
|
| DarkNoctus both saor and caladan brood have a unique energy of their own, this doesn't ]:
|
| DarkNoctus already checked it out, honestly wasn't a fan, found it kind of generic ]: i would give an album of theirs a try when one comes out though. thank you for the compliment to my cd though! glad it arrived safe! [:
|
| zaruyache Pls review Falaise so I can pos you then argue about why you're wrong ^_^ I haven't done much of that in sooo long.
|
| zaruyache yeah Obsequiae rules. Haven't jammed it much, but I kinda feel like bc the guitar style is so distinct that the style gets sorta tiring after a bit. Like you know what to expect in each song--individual tracks are all great though.
|
| zaruyache The mixing is off and the drums are obviously programmed and sound of-out-place with the guitars... and because they're programmed they sound wrong (like they sound like the wrong drums are being hit during blasting sections). I mean the writing's prob decent but the production is amateurish.
|
| zaruyache That's because they're meh :3 maybe if their music was less clunky and had better producing tho!
|
| zaruyache Hopefully my article gets posted. Seems to be more likely than not if articles don't get posted then new releases by obscvre bands get mostly ignored around here.
|
| BallsToTheWall You heard Geist? They used the nautical themes and atmosphere as well in a black metal format.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOPyjtmgIvM
|
| DarkNoctus a label just offered me a cd pressing so i'll be taking that up and hopefully it'll happen in june! cassette is happening too, hopefully sooner than that.
|
| DarkNoctus exactly why i made the album free, i suppose i wanted to make a point. i did what i could with the means at my disposal and made something i'm really passionate about. i'm very proud of it!
|
| DarkNoctus thank you so much, dude! and for your email! it's all been a very humbling experience, i'm surprised anyone paid much attention to my bedroom recordings, heh!
|
 | ComeToDaddy I'll definitely check it out in a couple of weeks, but check my latest list. Wont be able to check it out for a while, and only have internet while I'm at uni so can't download anything.
|
 | CaptainDooRight Thanks man, might bump to 3.5 because I really want to but it has to come naturally from the heart.
|
| Voivod I think that their best is their debut, but hey opinions :-D
|
| Voivod the new KYPCK is a great album, but not better than the previous two. Cheers!
|
 | Amphoteric Exactly, it's better produced and it seems like I should like it more, but it just feels like there's something missing that makes me want to listen to Lucidity much more than that one.
|
| CaptainDooRight No worries mate. Yeah bro the violins and the clean sections were my fav parts. What got me was the lack of emotion in the distorted sections. It was like night and day.
|
| CaptainDooRight Right, I need to get on that rating man. But yeah I think they have an ep and a demo as well. But yeah I can promise you I'll give Citadel a fair chance. But with all things, if the music doesn't have emotion I'm usually not happy with it.
|
| CaptainDooRight Thank you sir. I already have all their stuff. But I agree, they're a great band. Thanks again for the rec!
|
| Amphoteric The last 3 tracks of that album are all killer
|
| ComeToDaddy Have been crazy busy lately and still haven't gotten around to Darkflight, but jammed Injecting Pain the other day and it was fantastic, thanks for the rec/review man
|
| Atari no problem man, i actually haven't had a chance to jam it yet but i'll be sure to drop another comment about my thoughts after I hear it. I'll definitely be making it a priority ;)
|
| ComeToDaddy I know that whenever I get criticism, I appreciate it more than any amount of praise because it helps me improve. Just trying to do the same :) I'll let you know as soon as I make the time to jam them
|
| ComeToDaddy I'll check them out then, and if I love them enough I'll throw something up and try to get some exposure (:
|
| ComeToDaddy naww mate you're ****in awesome. I've got a couple of less metal 2014 reviews lined up (TOWERS for scramz and Morning Glory for Punk/Ska) but I'll be working on some Mekong Delta and Schammasch on request from osmark. If there's something great from 2014 that I've missed and you'd like reviewed, hit me up
|
| Amphoteric Well that's how I felt about it, and the format of that comment is such crap, didn't expect it to all blend into one long looking sentence, haha
|
| Amphoteric Listens 1-2: I don't know if I'm feelin it.Listens 3-4: Huh, this is really atmospheric, and I love the acoustic parts and interludes too.Listens 5-6: HOLY ****ING s***, THE VEILED GARDEN, THE SPIRAL FOUNTAIN, AND COSMIC SIGNIFICANCE RULEListens 7 : This whole thing is awesome, I think it might be my AOTY.
|
 | Crysis as often as i can... have the new in flames and darkspace dibbed so i'll be writing about the bad and good soon
|
| Crysis angelphoenix, holy s***, good to see you again man
|
| BallsToTheWall Yeah but I've been crusing as RoyalImperial for the past few months.
|
| BallsToTheWall http://seawitchdoom.bandcamp.com/releases This is more great thematic sludge. The nautical theme works pretty smashingly.
|
 | thirdworldprophet Just go ahead and listen to the new Sammath record. Won't hurt giving it a try.
|
| DarkNoctus yeah, the gris album isn't really my thing but the actual execution and composition is really impressive, difficult to dislike it based on those grounds. will review saor!
|
| DarkNoctus nah, i'm not the biggest fan of farewell, probably my least favorite track on the record
|
| DarkNoctus either 'the awakening' or 'pillars of the earth'
|
 | SpiritCrusher2 haha yea, Ianus rules, it's probably my favourite from the album. really solid album overall. a bit generic, but I'm a sucker for good technical melodeath and it kinda reminds me of Archons (check them out if you haven't already, I think you're gonna love it)
|
| Hawks I honestly don't even remember which site I got it from lol. Just type it in on Google.
|
| Hawks Sounds awesome. I'll probably listen to it later tonight or tomorrow before work.
|
| Hawks I actually haven't. It's the only album on my list that I haven't heard yet lol. What's it like?
|
| Hawks I'll have to get on it.
|
| Hawks Glad you like it my man. And I didn't know Falls of Rauros was your favorite bm band. I've still only heard one of their albums.
|
| Hawks That's what I like to hear! Vallendusk is my favorite bm this year. Surprisingly amazing stuff imo.
|
| Hawks I see Wiz and Poet are psyched your back too. ;] Anyways, you need to hear the new Vallendusk album if you haven't yet.
|
 | Poet dude it's PoetandthePendulum
|
| Poet ANGELPHOENIX LIVES!!
|
 | Wizard WHAT THE **** IS UP? Damn, I liked you back in 08-09. Please stay for real this time.
|
| Wizard I checked your ratings to see if they were recognizable but I don't know dude. Probably gonna kick myself when your reveal your identity.
|
| DarkNoctus i'm glad you like it! i was really impressed with it, had to review it, heh
|
| Hawks Sounds cool. I'll definitely look for a download link after work tomorrow.
|
| Hawks Ahhhhh damn sorry to hear you're not feeling Vermis. Not for everyone I guess. Roots does indeed rule too agreed.
|
| Hawks Yeah they're not a regular dm band. Very, very crushing atmosphere, especially on the new one.
|
| Hawks Duuuuude you need to hear the new Ulcerate album.
|
| Hawks Haha yeah I love that album. I gotta listen to it again either today or tomorrow.
|
| Hawks You definitely will buddy!
|
| Hawks Review quality is definitely better. A lot of stuff has changed, but this site has pretty much completely molded my music taste. Don't see myself leaving permanently for quite a while haha.
|
| Hawks Hell yeah bro. So nice to see you back around these parts. ;] You were one of the people who was around back in '08/'09 that I really wanted to come back.
|
| Hawks HOLY **** ANGEL! Dude I had no idea this was you. God damn I missed your ass around here lol.
|
|
