Erm... Well I haven't been too impressed. It's quite boring really. There are some good instrumental bits, but it's nothing too special, imnsho.


Well imelho it was rather good. Each to their own I suppose...

Black Sabbath - Symptom Of The Universe <-- a song that really doesn't need to be 6 1/2 minutes long.

Well, it's just... I can't decide if they are trying to be soft rock or black metal? It's frustrating to listen to cos it's not fast or heavy, but he still does the black metal shriek over everything. Like I said before, there are some really good riffs and solos, but they would suit a good rock band (like Alterbridge or someone) more than a band trying to be Black Metal... That's just what I thought anyways.

A song with a name that takes as long to say as the track lasts. -_-

Neither am I. We'll both watch out for them, then. -_-

Just so you know, Extol, Saviour Machine, Horde and Aletheian are all Christian bands... just thought you might be interested. :D

Aletheian - Burnt Offerings

Changed to

Turisas - Battle Metal

OK, finished listening to my long list of new stuff. In case anyone cares, here is a quick breakdown of each one:

Extol - Synergy Another good melo-death/thrash album by Extol. Their second best, imo.

Dark Tranquillity - Character also The Gallery I've decided that I much prefer their later work to their earlier stuff - it has a much more melodic and nicer sound overall. Their earlier stuff doesn't sound half as good (similar to very early In Flames, which wasn't brilliant, musically...) Character is awesome, whereas the Gallery wasn't amazing (same as Skydancer...)

Agalloch - Pale Folklore As I said on another post, I have no idea what this band is trying to do. It's annoying to listen to because they just seem to be a confusing mix of genres. Normally I like experimental stuff, with a blend of styles, but this is just jumbled together. Are they black metal? Are they folk rock? Are they soft rock? It doesn't make any sense. Didn't really enjoy it too much...

Necrophagist - Onset of Putrefecation Love this band! Both this album and Epitaph are brilliant, showing much skill.

Saviour Machine - Saviour Machine II I read that this band is prog metal. Now they definitely aren't that, but what they are is a sort of piano-heavy, experimental, post-modern version of Pink Floyd. It's weird. Where most rock groups would use guitars as their main melody instrument, these guys use the piano, only using one guitar doing backup riffs and solos. His voice is very rich as well. At first I was a bit like "what?" but then I really got into it by the end of the album, and it is pretty enjoyable.

Horde - Hellig Usvart This album reinforced my thought that I don't really like black metal, as a general rule. The music doesn't really go anywhere and it gets fairly boring. However there are a couple of good tracks on there, and I reckon that I will like it a bit more after a couple more listen-throughs.

Turisas - The Varangian Way Awesome stuff. Think Finntroll meets power metal meets a weird folk/symphonic metal hybrid. It's great. Although I would say that the previous album by them, "Battle Metal" is better.

Aletheian - Dying Vine Fairly bog-standard death metal, nothing outstanding. Goes in my "Meh." pile.

And there you go. -_-

NIN - With Teeth
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.
