follow-up:
baroness - this is a bit of an oddball in the baroness discography, its their only album that feels more album-oriented than song-oriented. there's like 7 full songs out of 12 tracks lol. but then a lot of those tracks are great tracks. jake leg and the gnashing especially, like hot damn.
canvas solaris - i was actually surprised, i figured it would be weaker than cortical tectonics but, no, i like this around as much as the atomized dream, maybe even more. the weird folky track is cool, and the two long tracks are great as well, especially the jazzy motif of the closer
jesu - i like this more than their debut mostly on the basis of it being shorter and not having a bad track like man/woman. it's fine. dunno if it's that memorable but it's pleasant.
thy catafalque - this is probably my least favorite of the three thy catafalque albums i have and neath waters is definitely a weaker epic but it's still pretty good overall. the opener especially is really vicious, and i like the idm flavor of the third track, and the doom metal fifth track, and the somber closer... yeah, it's still really good, just not as good
