Christian Fitness slap bass hunks
Andrew's most infectious and eclectic release thus far. The songwriting feels rushed.
The lyrical content is soberingly drunken. The bass lines are about as reminiscent of
bass lines as they are broken industrial equipment.

And bloody hell is it an entertaining release.

feels less thought out than most of its contemporaries and is thus somehow more intriguing. marred by naivete, bolstered by it simultaneously.

secretly hoping this'll be a 2/5 for the title continuity.
EDIT: it was a 4/5 so I guess I didn’t get what I hoped for so the title was correct?

a perfect record to introduce someone to more dissonant strains of black metal afaic. one of the best drum performances on a bm record this year. doesn't try anything new and doesn't really need to. very groovy, very accessible, very very fun fun time yes yes yes YES
Lakker Struggle & Emerge
Miho Hazama Dancer in Nowhere
Smokey as hell. Mid-career Snarky Puppy with a mid-20th century bent. It is like getting drugged by a seductive Italian revolutionary in an underground word-of-mouth neon-glow inner-city diner, only to wake up in a word-of-mouth neo-noir inner-city revolution; all of the fireworks and all of the molotovs are exploding in brilliant shades of black and white. A grim, lusty Jazz-fusion fever dream.

This is so much better than the debut. Glad my hype wasn't misplaced. Still a slog but there's a lot of interesting stuff to be experienced in this one.
Botanist/Oskoreien Green Metal/Deterministic Chaos
This is an excellent split. Botanist give their typical parade but the real enjoyment of the split is the stark juxtaposition of dulcimer-fueled blasts and Oskoreien's pummeling sludge progressions. Up there with Cara Neir/Wildspeaker as one of my favourite splits from this year.

Art Zoyd Armaggedon: Opérette pour Robots
Cloudkicker Unending
so much of this record feels like demo work for subsume and beacons. night, arlp 36, and wall felt awkward as interludes and didn't do anything interludes on previous albums have done better. xaoc has a great sense of momentum in the first third but every part of the song feels copied from elsewhere. better versions of every element of blackwing exist on subsume, and the song awkwardly hobbles to a close. this leaves yhwh and void, the first being a decently boring build into nothing and the second being possibly the only song on the record that houses any new ideas relative to Ben's discography with a uniquely spooky middle section. the overall melodic tone and atmosphere of the album felt inconsistent enough to prevent this from being as good a background listen as something like lybh, while simultaneously not being rapturing on a moment-to-moment basis like aforementioned records. woum deserves every lick of criticism it has earned but fuck me at least that release had a sense of identity and experimentation. couldn't help but think of that old youtube comment trend "watchmojo are running out of ideas" listening to this.
