Cosmicism 95/100
Two fantastic & completely distinct songs from the original masters. Even though I've long admired Summoning, this excellent EP really surprised me. 1 day ago
Cosmicism 70/100
I'm not a fan of the lyrics, but there are some good & very melodic moments throughout the album. 1 day ago
Cosmicism 80/100
I especially loved track 6. This is good stuff, but still in the early years of this project, and far from its best work. 1 day ago
Cosmicism 90/100
Fantastic, but not for impatient people. The funny thing is that whenever I really enjoy what's happening on this album, I end up making a face like something smells terrible. Maybe doom has a smell.... 1 day ago
Cosmicism 90/100
I really felt this bluesy stoner doom deep down in my core. I'm glad I gave Wo Fat another try. 1 day ago

I'm not so into the singing on this one, but it's still pretty good. 1 day ago

Exactly what I wanted to hear. This super prolific artist keeps the quality level high. 1 day ago

I liked abyss a little more, but I see they're still growing as songwriters. Everything is either good or excellent. Especially excellent is the variety, ranging from clean & happy power metal to quite extreme moments as well, and it all feels natural. 1 day ago
Cosmicism 70/100
It's so-so for me. Some songs stop awkwardly in the middle, and the compositions feel a bit plain. The overall sound is really nice though. 1 day ago

Nice depressive compositions by Woods of Desolation. 1 day ago

Screaming out "I'm alive" and listening to this album give the exact same feeling. Truly great music. 3 days ago

That ray of sunshine on the cover should give you an idea of how it feels to listen to this. Some BM fans might feel there's not enough BM on the album. Keep an open mind; it's good music. 3 days ago

I love the hellish atmosphere and vigor of this album. 3 days ago
Cosmicism 90/100
I seriously needed to relax, and the wonderful atmosphere of this vicious album gave me everything I needed. A bit like 90s symphonic BM to my ear, it might be Borgne following the lead of their influences before finding ways to be more original just a couple of years later. Anyway, it's still as great as I expected. 4 days ago
Cosmicism 75/100
Maybe about 15% metal, but overall I can enjoy it a bit because of the obvious effort that went into making the ambient soundscape intriguing. 4 days ago

Lucky that this deathgrind supergroup gets together, and holy %*#@$ that drumming. 4 days ago
Cosmicism 90/100
From the opening guitar tone, I just knew this was going to be great. The energy is amazing, and the drumming is astounding. A reminder of why I listen to Misery Index, and of why I'm fond of deathgrind. 5 days ago

First I want to say that track 8 is a full-on masterpiece. Now, this album will be a challenging experience for many listeners, but it's worth it to brave the strange, maybe unnameable, feelings and unconventional song structures. This album is really about something and it matches the theme musically. My pick of the day. Something worked out right with all those veteran collaborators. 5 days ago
Cosmicism 85/100
Heavy insanity, and it sounds like it takes some serious skills to play these songs. Bonus respect for the Bosch allusion. 5 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. 5 days ago
Cosmicism 90/100
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. 5 days ago
Cosmicism 85/100
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. 5 days ago
Cosmicism 85/100
The whole album is good, but a few parts are totally fantastic. Another high-quality release by Sidus Atrum. 5 days ago
Cosmicism 85/100
Nice rousing pagan feelings from a very dependable & very busy artist. 5 days ago
Cosmicism 75/100
A good place to start for Amiensus. It's listenable, but they did progress much further than this just a couple of years later. 5 days ago
Cosmicism 90/100
Wow. This artist has been gaining experience for a number of years already, and it really shows in the swooning beauty of these melodies. 5 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. 5 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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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. 7 days ago

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. 7 days ago

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. 4 days ago
