What did you think of Foxtrot, Luke? Watcher of the Skies is such a great opener...

Also, Das Seelenbrechen is the only Ihsahn record I've never checked out. Not sure why. I need to remedy that.

I've heard the album a few times before but I definitely enjoyed it more yesterday. I think I was paying attention more than I had done with previous listens. Supper's Ready in particular caught my attention. I know it's regarded as a great prog epic but yea, I definitely dug it. I left the album on my regular rotation playlist, so will circle back to it this week or next.

As for Das Seelenbrechen, it's not the strongest Ihsahn, but it does have some really standout songs. Definitely worth checking out.

Kudos for Worm above as well. Have you checked out the split with Dream Unending yet?

Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Some recent releases:

Mayfire - Cloudscapes & Silhouettes
This is really good. Progressive, a lot of variation, mostly vocals and great vocal melodies, a few great riffs and Baard Kolstad on one of the songs.
Fans of TesseracT will love this.

Morne - Engraved With Pain
Post/sludgemetal with some doomy leads. First listen followed by two more. I like it a lot. Some Cult of Luna influences mainly in the vocals and tribal drumming.


Quoting yourself is always a good idea  ::)

These albums are in standard rotation over the last few days. Might end up in my top 10 this year.

Also:
Psychonaut - Violate Consensus Reality
Aeonian Sorrow - Katara

Aeonian Sorrow - Katara

This one is good, but a step back from their previous EP.  Rutanen had a much more unique growl that I miss.

Picked this one from a review that mentioned them similar to bands like Clouds and Shape of Despair.
Will check their earlier releases. Perfect time of year for some (funeral) doom.

Tried giving Milliontown by Frost* a spin again and while I enjoyed I still can't get behind the vocals.

When was the last time you checked out an album based purely on the album artwork?

This is my latest...



Czech Republic metal band Master's Hammer. I mean, look at it!

Yea, I'm probably once every few months as well. But if something catches me eye, I gotta hear it.

One of my favourites I discovered that way was Meta by Thy Catafalque.

Since we recently discussed covers that are not easily identifiable...first row is Blood Incantation (left) and Kauan - Ice Fleet (right)

Oh, and I have to say the Helloween s/t is not losing an ounce of its charm...if anything, it's getting better with time for me. I don't disagree that, overall, it's not a huge stylistic departure from other Deris-era album, but the songwriting is very, very inspired. To me, it's way better than, say, 7 Sinners, Straight Out of Hell and My God-Given Right (which I all generally enjoy, btw), to mention some recent ones. Even the "lesser" track are much more enjoyable than the typical Helloween throwaway songs.
