level 14 Cosmicism   85/100
I'm almost considering moving this up to 90. It was a lot better than I expected, noticing that too idealized execution of a nice idea for an album cover. I was in it for the doomy aspect, but the more rock & post-metal parts were fantastic. At Least it's Something is the standout track for me, but the whole record is full of great moments.   Apr 29, 2024
A Certain End of Everything
level 14 Cosmicism   80/100
Cathartic & uplifting music, so it's kinda mom rock while also being gothic doom but still works well even if you assume that' a bad combo. Not a favorite, but I'm glad I listened.   Apr 29, 2024

The Metal Meltdown had me believing this would be even better. Oh well, it's still enjoyable. Good variety and execution.   Apr 24, 2024
Cosmic Keys to the Mourning Mystique
level 14 Cosmicism   75/100
Yes Mithrandir used the same painting for an album cover last year. Anyway, this EP is very old-school symphonic, so it often sounds more synth than classical. All in all, it's pretty good.   Apr 24, 2024

It pounds the room and washes over you at the same time in that shoegaze kind of way. Great for chilling out.   Apr 24, 2024
Into the Kingdom of Graves
level 14 Cosmicism   90/100
Very well played and in great taste. It's also their own kind of war metal, so it's more distinct than other bands. There is a surprising shift in style later in the album, but anyway, this is highly recommendable. My pick of the day.   Apr 24, 2024
Unleash the Carnivore
level 14 Cosmicism   85/100
This one has great energy. Devourment's kind of slam should be heard even by metalheads who don't like the sub-genre.   Apr 24, 2024
A Breath of the Wide Valley
level 14 Cosmicism   80/100
The last ambient track really stirs the emotions. This is good, but nowhere near his best. It is much more consistent than In the Stillness of the Codrii.   Apr 24, 2024
In the Stillness of the Codrii
level 14 Cosmicism   75/100
This album is half & half for me. The first 2 songs just don't work well; the elements feel just wrong together. I was pleased to discover how much better the second 2 songs are. It would be a shame to waste that brilliant album cover if the music was not so good, with that shocking black logo looking so profound against that false-night photograph. Tracks 3 & 4 save the day.   Apr 24, 2024
A Mortal Binding
level 14 Cosmicism   90/100
Wow, last week was amazing with the releases. This is very good doom, and the songs have that great quality that makes just the main melody stay in your head long after listening. Fantastic album by these veterans.   Apr 24, 2024

5 really distinct tracks. The 1st half of track is a lot more exciting than the 2nd half of it. That's the most negative thing I can say about this album. After all these years Melvins still have a lot to say musically, and here it's all played well. I thought I'd like it and it exceeded my expectations. Hats off.   Apr 24, 2024

Cometh the Storm
level 14 Cosmicism   90/100
Funny Dvne's album came out on the same day. Usually something as good as this High on Fire record would be the pick of the day. It's all really good and I feel it all throughout my body. You'll also find it goes into Sleep territory at the end. A great journey of an album.   Apr 21, 2024

Absolutely my pick of the week. Tons of passion while the compositions are actually mind-blowing and probably really hard to play. This band now has 3 master-tier albums, and they've only released 3 albums. They deserve a lot of credit for really caring about their craft and putting in the hard work to create albums this fantastic.   Apr 21, 2024

It's just their 1st album, and it's kind of plain jane, needing more dynamism in the guitarwork. It ends up being like Minsitry but less interesting. Later albums are a gigantic improvement.   Apr 21, 2024

These guys are serious musicians. Overall, it's not as good as 666 International, but it's still a mind-warping journey. Funny that the softer segments were the most amazing for me.   Apr 21, 2024

I like softer projects like Lustre and Basarabian Hills, but this album feels like it's missing something without enough blackened element in there. The lead guitar is where this artist shows his skills, but all the other instruments feel way too basic. Not particularly exciting for me.   Apr 21, 2024

Slightly better than the art of partying, but not as excellent as Electrified Brain. Anyway, this is 39 minutes of well-played music by a very dependable band, and you will bob your head!   Apr 21, 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

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

Long Live Rock 'N' Roll
level 13 metalnrock   100/100
리치가 베이스를 1–3, 6를 연주했다. 그 외의 스튜디오는 밥 데이즐리 연주. 어렸을 때에는 1,5를 굉장히 좋아했었는데 문제는 5를 라센 시기에는 듣질 못했었다. 지금은 오히려 4번 같은 곡이 애청곡이 되었다. 앨범으로 기준으로도 1,2집보다 더 좋아했던 기억이 있다. 8번은 역시나 디오의 또 다른 보컬 맛을 느끼기 좋은 곡. 디오 재적시의 앨범은 영원할 것 같다.   Apr 20, 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

개인적으로 이 앨범을 그렇게 좋아하지 않는다. 이 앨범이야 말로 방향성이 애매했던 프로듀싱과 작곡으로 생각보다 안좋네 라고 생각했던 앨범. 물론 메탈 갓이 주다스의 시그니쳐로 쓰이기는 한데 이 곡도 애매하다. 브레이킹 더 로나 리빙도 맘에 안들고 물론 관중과 싱어롱할때는 좋긴 하다고 생각은 하지만 말이다. 75-80점.6번 8번이 의외로 좋다.   May 8, 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
