Cosmicism 75/100
Unbreakable is a very good song, but nothing else on this album comes close to it. It's the first full-length of the band, so this is understandable. Mar 10, 2024

Very good conveying of emotion, and a good use of the atmospheric BM sub-genre. Mar 10, 2024

Did I become stuck in a Murphy's Law rut? I expected this album not to take the metal seriously enough. Good thing I was wrong. That excellent first track is exactly what I want from doomgaze. Now there's some variety on the album, and it's not like each song is on the same level, but it's good music throughout, and the singer has the perfect touch. Mar 10, 2024

Now I'm learning about this veteran band by trying this excellent black metal album. Lost Momentum is especially excellent, and the rest is good too. Mar 10, 2024

Wow, I love this album with a passion. It's very Motörhead, and it sounds exactly like that cover art. Mar 10, 2024

Simple in a way that just makes all the songs work so efficiently, while creating the perfect space for thrash riffing. I prefer this one over Cause for Alarm. Their shows in the late 80s must've been insane. Mar 10, 2024

Fun, and it makes me feel cool. There's a lot of electronica, and the vocals have a robot effect on them. I can enjoy that formula. Now it's time for Vvon Dogma I to write better material because a more powerful album along these lines would be just fantastic. Mar 10, 2024

Piano & trap beats for an intro to a slam album? Now I've heard everything. He does go too far with the zany clips/samples, but I can forgive that when it's done in the name of fun and when the music is this good. Though it's playful & humorous, the slam is brutal & delectable, and that cover art fits perfectly. Good new project to watch in a vibrant sub-genre. Mar 10, 2024

Better than their 2017 album. The doom parts and the death metal parts are both top tier. I really like this one, and I'd bet anything it'll be a new favorite among metalheads. Mar 10, 2024

Mathcore & deathgrind, which is an excellent choice by this band because it's as viscerally engaging as good deathgrind, and as technical & as challenging as mathcore should be. It's also a frantic spewing of endless-feeling aggression. I totally loved it. Mar 10, 2024

Commenced with a scream, and just so captivating. Yet another inspired work by a great artist. Mar 10, 2024
Cosmicism 80/100
The worst I can describe Hopiumforthemasses is that it's sticking completely to a formula that has worked very well for Minsitry for decades, and that the songs are essentially good but could've used a little retooling or maybe just a couple more takes with the intent to push it as far as it goes. Anyway, I was into it the whole way through, and the last track is the highlight. Mar 10, 2024

Just beautiful, but I expect that from YOB. There hypnotic moments, and some sludge too. Mar 10, 2024
Cosmicism 85/100
Matthew Bell's Burzum-worship project. This album in particular dunkelheits from start to finish. The 2023 album, Skogshypnos, is noticeably better to my ear, but Whispers of Ancient Spells is still good. Mar 10, 2024
Cosmicism 85/100
Kinda deathcore too, and that element brings a very rich heaviness with none of the cringe and phoniness that deathcore and metalcore are often cursed with. If you are interested in those genres and/or mathcore, I highly recommend this. Mar 10, 2024
Cosmicism 80/100
Zany scrambled insanity as those genre's promise. It's good music, but those track titles are just pure gold. Mar 10, 2024

Extremely solid all the way through, and the seething passion and adrenaline are gloriously apparent. Mar 10, 2024

Similar to Rage Against the Machine as I expected, but without the phenomenal rhythmic quality. The choruses here are mostly so plain Jane. It's okay to try once, but I can't say this music is good. Mar 10, 2024
Cosmicism 80/100
That last track was the high point for me. I really loved it. I wish the singer would just get a little more playful. Still good all around. Mar 5, 2024
Cosmicism 75/100
This is a sadistically painful experience, but it's also fun to a certain degree. That's not to say it's inaccessible; this is percussive drone metal, and it's pretty gratifying as well. Mar 5, 2024

It's uncanny how good this album is, considering how young the band was. Epic all the way through. Mar 5, 2024

Some doom on here, but whether it's at a doom moment or a death metal moment these songs are all impressive & exciting. Great work. Mar 5, 2024
Cosmicism 85/100
Really soaring doom & heavy metal melodies. Out of all the mistakes that can show up on an album, Lucifer has made none here. That fact makes the songs extremely replayable even though I won't rank it at the highest level. Also, it's better to skip the alternate versions of tracks 2 and 6; no need to hear them more often than the other tracks. Mar 5, 2024
Cosmicism 85/100
Catching up on recent war metal / blackdeath has been a very rewarding experience. There are some sinister vibes and gloom here, but mostly it's an overbearing frenzy of pummeling. I'm not always in the mood for that but, for some reason, today I was in the mood so I was able to hear how great this recording is. Mar 2, 2024
Cosmicism 100/100
2021 was an amazing year for atmospheric black metal, and this masterpiece could have topped the genre on some other years. It's an improvement on his 2020 debut. The ambient interludes are better, the melodies & transitions are even more astounding, and that guitar sound is perfect. Nature worship with melancholy but it's full of energy and danger as well. This album has everything. Mar 2, 2024

Amazing for his first full-length album. Tons of inspiration are apparent here. Mar 2, 2024

군터 베르노의 부재가 오히려 곡의 diversity가 증가하는 방향으로 귀결되어 조금 변화된 VP를 느낄수있다. 그 와중에 코어는 전혀 흔들리지 않고 너무나 탄탄한 장르의 전형을 보여주는 뛰어난 앨범이다. 이들 특유의 늘어짐이 가끔은 지루하기도 하지만, 이정도 내공에 이정도 앨범을 찍어내는 이들은 결코 없으므로, 이제 당연히 명예의 전당에 입성해야 한다. May 10, 2024

간만에 듣는 수작 프로그레시브 젠트 앨범. 개인적으로 프록을 좋아하지 않음에도 불구하고 리프가 살아있고 복잡한 연주보다는 분위기나 리듬이 강조되어 듣는 재미가 배가 되었다. 보컬이 그로울링이었더라면 취향 100점 짜리 앨범이 되었지 않을까라는 생각도 드는 앨범. Apr 29, 2024

DT와 더불어 가장 활발한 활동을 하는 스틸 얼라이브 프록메탈 밴드로 영국의 대표밴드 스래쉬홀드와 더불어 독일을 대표하는 프록메탈밴드로 아주 훌륭한 연주력과 작곡력이 이번 앨범에도 퍼포먼스에 광을 내고 있다 May 3, 2024

1990년도에 대체 무슨 일이 있었길래... rust in peace, painkiller, spiritual healing, cowboys from hell까지... 가슴이 웅장해진다. 나머지 앨범들도 손에 꼽을 정도로 좋아하는 앨범이지만 거의 모든 곡이 취향 저격인 앨범은 이것 밖에 없다. May 7, 2024

드디어 이들의 약점이었던 절제된 기타솔로가 어느정도 해금되었습니다. 지난 앨범도 만족스러웠는데 역시나 이번에도 실망하지 않게 해주네요. 나이가 들어감에 따라 내가 좋아하는 밴드들도 하나둘씩 늙어가고 멤버들도 세상을 떠나는 걸 보니 매우 슬프네요. 반덴플라스는 계속 음악활동 왕성히 해주었으면 좋겠습니다 May 8, 2024

3인조 코로너의 전 앨범 특히 2,3,4집을 좋아합니다. 옛날에 3집을 LP로 구입했었는데 속지에 시계, 스위스, 큰 글자로 '그로테스크' 라고 적힌 기억이.. 이후 90년대 중후반에 걸쳐서 전 앨범을 시디로 하나씩 모았죠. 30년간 신보를 안 내고 재결성 후에 아직도 활동하는 것도 특이한데, 그만큼 고정팬들이 많다는거 거겠죠. Apr 25, 2024

이름값에 걸맞는 앨범. 특히 유럽 내에서 그들의 인기는 타의 추종을 불허한다. 처음부터 끝까지 단단한 구성과 강력한 연주가 여전하다. 하지만 들은 후 이렇다할 임팩트나 싱글지향적 멜로디 부재의 한끝이 아쉽다. May 5, 2024

밀레니엄 시기의 소위 '팝수성' 가득한 사운드로 청자를 타격한다. 특기할만한 것은 그 타격 지점이 RATM도, Limp Bizkit과 Korn, Slipknot도 내딛지 않았던 공간이라는 사실. May 10, 2024

이 앨범 그냥 시대를 관통했습니다. 2030 고독사가 늘어나고 점점 사람들과의 관계가 멀어져 가는 요즘 시대에 살아가는 우리들에게 받아야할 위로를 이 앨범이 하나의 동화처럼 들려주기 때문입니다. 그리고 이 앨범의 모티브가 된 실화는 현 우리나라의 문제점을 그대로 나타나는 게 더 소름돋습니다. 7 days ago
