I really don't understand what's so bad about the past 2 Drudkh albums..

Let's start this off with a quick summation: there is exactly one memorable riff on this record and it occurs on the very first track. The rest of A Furrow Cut Short is lethargic and in dire need of some invigorating lift to bring the muddy, grey riffing back to life. It's a ceaseless dirge of cyclical guitar patterns and monochromatic moods that runs its course before the album escapes from its opener. The production is heavy and loud, swallowing the once-legendary bass lines Drudkh unleashed as recently as a few albums ago and opting to replace them with thundering drumming that envelop any attempt at dissidence to the one-dimensional songwriting. To put it in plain words, A Furrow Cut Short is Drudkh's worst album to date, supplanting even A Handful of Stars which, unlike the alarming display of stagnation here, at least attempted to try to achieve more than this...this...pure mediocrity. The only melancholy here is that instilled in the listener by the fact that Roman Saenko, who is capable of so, so much more, appears a fragment of his former self.

Not a return to form but rather, the same stripped down atmospheric bm played on "Eternal Turn of the Wheel". A waste of my time and yours too!
Edit: and this piece of shit just keeps on slipping down the ratings. Like I said to Crysis, the album is the equivalent of talking to an old person who tells the same story over and over again.

Don't get the recent Drudkh hate. Definitely not at the same level as they were towards the
start
of their career, but these tracks still do some alright melancholy even with the
atmosphere more diminished.

Their fastest, most chaotic, heaviest (?) album. But by no means their best.
