Cosmicism 85/100
Heavy insanity, and it sounds like it takes some serious skills to play these songs. Bonus respect for the Bosch allusion. 7 days ago
Cosmicism 75/100
Not the style I expected to hear and, to be honest, it doesn't hold together so well. It feels a bit awkward. Brittney's vocals keep this score from dropping to 70. Their later songwriting is so much better. 7 days ago

One of those big & omnipresent releases in recent post-rock. I liked it a bit a few years ago, but it impresses me much more now. Highly recommendable. 7 days ago

Is it cheating to raid the most legendary moments of classical music for your own metal album? Anyway, it's quite a journey, and this rendition of Chopin's piece is astounding. 7 days ago

The whole album is good, but a few parts are totally fantastic. Another high-quality release by Sidus Atrum. 7 days ago

Nice rousing pagan feelings from a very dependable & very busy artist. 7 days ago

A good place to start for Amiensus. It's listenable, but they did progress much further than this just a couple of years later. 7 days ago

Wow. This artist has been gaining experience for a number of years already, and it really shows in the swooning beauty of these melodies. 7 days ago
Cosmicism 85/100
A contemporary classic of post-rock. I used to listen to this one often, and it has just as much substance to it as I recollect. Great to escape from vocals and just feel the flow of the music. 7 days ago

Yes it's heavy, brutal, & gigantic, but I just couldn't get so excited about it. Maybe it's more for metalheads partial to brutality. May 9, 2024

Did you ever have a Slam Wednesday? Well, for me, there were some great examples of bands putting some real feeling & nuance into all the thunderous destruction. Also, though slam vocals are by design quite absurd, Analepsy makes them listenable & expressive too. Good work. May 9, 2024

Here's the danger with all these glamorous cover models posing for these albums; if she's not my type I don't want to hurt her feelings, but I might not want the album because my sense of beauty is not so typical. Also, the instrumentation is excellent on this one. May 9, 2024

I'm glad this true gem showed up on Slam Worldwide. Often slam is fun, but with the thick atmosphere, and the good taste in vocals, I take this one a bit more seriously. The cover art is a super cool concept with execution that's a bit medium, but the music is quite high-tier to my ears. May 9, 2024
Cosmicism 90/100
More passion than you could imagine on this powerful album that feels at once in dirty club somewhere but also in some fancy rehearsal space. There's a billion guest vocalists from crust and hardcore groups. Really genuine stuff from a bunch that believes in what they're saying. May 9, 2024

Thanks to wonderfully mind-warping albums like this, dissonant DM is a very happening sub-genre. I can tell a lot of work & inspiration went into making this. Great cover too. Total class act. May 9, 2024
Cosmicism 75/100
I like the style since it's similar to Cult of Luna & Julie Christmas's collaboration. However, I don't get into this Guhts album as much. The vocals feel more like performance art, which could be OK, but I just don't like it as much as some sludge fans might. It's still easy to hear how this is a fully capable band - maybe I'll like another album from them much more. May 9, 2024
Cosmicism 75/100
I can imagine the nostalgia many fans must feel for when this was a brand new style, but most of these songs are too basic. Please vary some riffs & beats... maybe a key change or tempo change. Anyway, it is a super early release from a towering discography, so who am I to complain. May 9, 2024
Cosmicism 85/100
I feel like each song has a purpose. Real passion behind these well written songs. One of many good Darkthrone albums. May 9, 2024
Cosmicism 80/100
Barely anything grinding on this one. It's more like very angry and not melodic metalcore alongside 8-bit & 16-bit music. As far as that goes, it's pretty good. May 9, 2024
Cosmicism 80/100
I really can't wait for Distant Dream's new album and I was trying to find something similar. This album's pretty good. The like-but-not-love category. May 9, 2024
Cosmicism 85/100
Good space ambient album even for people like me who don't want to hear much ambient. May 9, 2024
Cosmicism 95/100
Another quite new group with a totally top-tier black metal album. This is my pick of the last few days, and the music is worthy of that awesome & evocative cover art that matches the title so perfectly. Very meaty sound, and the melodies are gripping. You must not miss this album. May 9, 2024
Cosmicism 90/100
Great songs full of drama and perfect vocals. While they were active they had the quality dial turned way up. May 9, 2024

Maybe it's supposed to be a joke. If that's true that helps a tiny bit, but it's still bad. May 6, 2024

The 1st couple of tracks felt kind of luke warm to me, but the album started winning me over quickly after those ones. Some great songs on this, and the attitude soaked into the whole thing is just so perfect. Definitely enjoyable. May 6, 2024

The symphonic element is pretty prominent on this extremely dramatic album. Very good all around. May 6, 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

군제대 후 이 앨범을 듣고 충격을 받았던 기억이 생생...토비아스의 천재성이 드러난 앨범 바이올린을 전공했던 큰 애가 요즘도 가끔 연주하는 "Vain Glory Opera" Apr 25, 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

Stradivarius 85/100
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
