Self Destructive Pattern
level 14 Cosmicism   85/100
Another nice solid album by Spineshank. There are a few very commercial moments that had me saying, "Oh, shut up." The vast majority was fine though, with the same bright energy as The Height of Callousness. I'll give them the same score, but if either one is better, I'd say it's this one.   Oct 6, 2023

First I recognize that this is electronic music. Then I can really enjoy it. I just love the neoclassical feel to the compositions. darkwave and chiptune work very well with this kind of cyber metal. I want more.   Oct 5, 2023

The Height of Callousness
level 14 Cosmicism   85/100
Rebellious & in-your-face in an enjoyable way. The vocals are the weakest part of the sound, but even the singing has some very nice moments throughout the record. End result - I had a good time.   Oct 4, 2023

For me, a good experience. Probably hard for many people to listen to, but there's tons of atmosphere. Similar in style to 2022's albums like Chat Pile and the even better Ashenspire. This KEN mode album isn't quite as powerful though. I think you'll feel some sludge in addition to the hardcore & noise rock.   Oct 4, 2023

Through the Spheres of Darkness
level 14 Cosmicism   90/100
Foreboding sounds of some cult opening a portal to a dimension of planet destroying demons; well that's the feeling I get. This album deserves a high score for the excellent drum accents. Everything else is good too.   Oct 2, 2023

Und die H​ö​rner des Sommers verstummten​.​.​.
level 14 Cosmicism   90/100
The 1st full-length, and it's super high quality like his EP. If every song was as good as the last track, this would be a perfect score for sure. Brilliant songwriting and exquisite sadness. If you don't expect much speed or fury from this album, you'll enjoy the 39 minutes of melancholy.   Sep 30, 2023

I really get lost in the dissonance with this wonderful band. Not as good as their Obscura album, but I'm still just elated to listen to this. 1 hour & 2 minutes go by in a flash.   Sep 30, 2023
Reclaimer
preview  Shadow of Intent preview  Reclaimer (2017)
level 14 Cosmicism   90/100
Great music by a dependable band. I don't find it particularly better than their later albums, but the symphonic sections on this one are their most evocative ones, I find. Shadow of Intent; Deathcore yankees keeping it real since 2014.   Sep 30, 2023
Crypt of Ancestral Knowledge
level 14 Cosmicism   95/100
I can't count how many times I listened to this on the release day alone. I'm almost tempted to give it a perfect score, but the last 2 tracks pull down the number a little. Anyway, I love how the first song starts off like Elffor and ends just like Wolves in the Throne Room. Captivating music that makes my mind wander, and a fantastic album cover.   Sep 30, 2023

The first track is a bit too repetitive, but it's still enjoyable for the whole EP. Nice dark & grimy feelings, but nothing that compares to their 2022 album.   Sep 30, 2023

So glad I've learned this band exists! This album also has a blackened element, so people who want more bass in their black metal will be satisfied with Celeste. Anyway, I was in bliss for 41 minutes. Without a doubt, my pick of the day.   Sep 28, 2023
Post Orgasmic Chill
level 14 Cosmicism   90/100
Great execution and tons of passion. There is gothic metal, pop, rap, drum & bass, R&B, and even some obvious Rage Against the Machine influence. The vocals take center stage, and they deserve it. The last couple of songs are a little less amazing than the rest, so I won't give it a 95. Anyway, this is gorgeous music.   Sep 28, 2023
Human Target
level 14 Cosmicism   80/100
Overall good album. It makes me wish there was more variety in feeling and vocals. Also, it's nice to see the execution on that cover art, which is a concept we see a lot in death metal and some other genres, but usually not as well done as this one.   Sep 28, 2023
A Better Dystopia
level 14 Cosmicism   90/100
I was going to give this a 95, but since it's a cover album I'll move it down to 90. They deserve credit though; all these songs sound like Monster Magnet songs. Also, all the band members have a chance to shine. I recommend this one, but you should probably be wearing sunglasses for your own safety.   Sep 28, 2023

level 14 Cosmicism   90/100
This is a great mix of black metal's variety in one short EP. The most surprising for me was the swagger in the riffs at some points, which is not typical for BM. Another BM band to watch for sure!   Sep 28, 2023
Confessions of the Fallen
level 14 Cosmicism   55/100
I expected cringe, but what I got was a bunch of very weak songs with no motivation. The lyrics have so many clichés, that some tracks are 100% cliché. Track 2 is a NIN style song but is still totally boring. Track 6 stands out as the only kinda good song; if it came on the radio, I might not turn it off.   Sep 28, 2023

I tried a lot of sludge today, and I loved this one the most. It has such a bleak atmosphere, and the emotions are so powerful the whole 48 minutes feel like a great drama unfolding. The blend of genres is a real pleasure too. I do feel a little post-hardcore peeking out of the sludge throughout. Anyway, now I'm very curious how their other albums sound.   Sep 27, 2023
At the Gates of Adversarial Darkness
level 14 Cosmicism   85/100
Tolkien-inspired black metal, but not atmospheric BM or anything medieval or folky - just straight BM. Well done, and the vocals switch to death growls at times for variety.   Sep 27, 2023

The spacious feeling and nazzzty bogged-down distortion were pure bliss for me. More impressive than their 2023 album. Also, on Canyons, the distant feeling to the clean vocals and their delivery were also a lot more enjoyable. This album really captured my heart.   Sep 27, 2023

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

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
