level 14 Cosmicism   70/100
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
怪談 そして死とエロス
level 14 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

level 14 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
Lucifer V
preview  Lucifer preview  Lucifer V (2024)
level 14 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
Wombspreader
preview  Eggs of Gomorrh preview  Wombspreader (2022)
level 14 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
Pimeyttä vasten
preview  Aran preview  Pimeyttä vasten (2021)
level 14 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

Fatal Design
preview  Entwine preview  Fatal Design (2006)
level 14 Cosmicism   70/100
The vocals are mediocre & phony. The songwriting is not interesting and obscenely commercial. There are a few gothic moments, but they are outnumbered by momrock. Disappointing for me.   Mar 2, 2024

A good album. Besides black metal & death metal, there a few heavy-metal style solos.   Mar 1, 2024
Years of Lead
preview  Coffin Nail preview  Years of Lead (2022)
level 14 Cosmicism   85/100
Vigorous and truthfully great songs. The Hanged Man was noticeably better, but that honey of an album cover had me expecting a million times better. Silly me.   Mar 1, 2024
Claustrophobic Dysentery
level 14 Cosmicism   90/100
Everything is excellent on this powerful album. Sometimes field recordings and ambience just match the theme very vaguely, but here the sounds bring you to very specific times & spaces that are grimy, hopeless, & dangerous. Yes it's also viscerally gratifying war metal, but this is an intelligent & thought-provoking work as well. First time hearing this artist, and I already have a lot of respect for him.   Mar 1, 2024
The Depths
preview  Cover of Night preview  The Depths (2017)
level 14 Cosmicism   75/100
Some very good atmospheric BM parts, and some very good post-metal parts. This should be an 80/100 album at least, but it takes too long to get to the point. Field recordings and ambience can only last so long.   Mar 1, 2024
Old Man's Doom
level 14 Cosmicism   85/100
A bit better than Inner Emigration. After listening to some insanely stuff a couple of days ago, this was the perfect chill out.   Mar 1, 2024

Creeping! Crushing! Crawling!
level 14 Cosmicism   70/100
I really enjoyed the bounciness, the occasional segments of old school death metal, and the audio clips. The main negative for me is that the composition feels a bit empty, as if the other instruments expect the vocals to fill some space and make the songs feel complete, but those vocals just rumble without accomplishing much. The end result feels like background music for a movie or video game that is designed for other audio to be the main focus.   Mar 1, 2024
Vessels by which the Devil is Made Flesh
level 14 Cosmicism   85/100
Very good music. I find the 2nd track a little less enjoyable than the other two. They produced a cool series of illustrations for this album.   Mar 1, 2024
The path to the abyss of evil

Very well-played and passionate black metal.   Mar 1, 2024
Traits of the Past
preview  Agnosy preview  Traits of the Past (2014)
level 14 Cosmicism   90/100
Better than their 2019 album. The guitar sound here is just so perfect; they must be fully satisfied with the recording. The songs are all good, but that last track is a death crust epic. Definitely becoming a fan of Agnosy. Also, that cover art, in addition to being well executed, is exactly what we metal fans want to see, so double thank you for that one.   Feb 28, 2024
Cause for Alarm

More variety in the beats & rhythms would be an improvement, but this album is as invigorating as all hell.   Feb 28, 2024
The Fallen Leaves
level 14 Cosmicism   80/100
A solid good time with no weak parts. Surprise of the day: there is some deathcore on this album. Respect to Dwarrowdelf for taking Tolkienesque to different places and bringing us more variety.   Feb 28, 2024
somewhere far beyond
preview  Ammanas preview  somewhere far beyond (2024)
level 14 Cosmicism   100/100
I listen to a lot of music, but this album stands out as one to keep playing regularly. First 10/10 for me for 2024. The best vocalist from the last album is on all the tracks. It's also clear that Ammanas was determined to come up with compositions that are even better than his previous work, and that determination pays off with 36 minutes of nonstop emotional power.   Feb 28, 2024

The Passing of the Grey Company is a masterpiece diamond in the lo fi. Beautiful melodies on this album. I also notice some thinking outside the box in composing these melodies. Very good early album by a legend of a band.   Feb 28, 2024
Double Brutal
level 14 Cosmicism   85/100
It's tons of fun, the Arnold impersonation is fantastic, there're some great cover songs, and the original songs obviously have an element of comedy but they still work as enjoyable music. Recommended for humans that like to enjoy things.   Feb 28, 2024

리치 블랙모어와 로니 제임스 디오는 할 말을 잊을 정도로 훌륭하고 아름다운 작곡 실력을 보여주고 있다. 100년 후에도 촌스럽지 않고 충분히 사랑받을 만한 음악이다.   Apr 7, 2024

Innuendo

level 13 metalnrock   95/100
퀸 앨범 중 a night at opera와 더불어 제일 좋아하는 앨범이다. 메탈 팬도 들으면 생각보다 센 곡도 있다. 1LP 버전들은 길이 때문에 2, 5,10,11이 줄어서 들어갔다. 총 53분이면 음질에 영향받을 것 같지 않은데 말이다. 그래서인지 2015년에 2lp 버전도 발매했다. 1,12 진짜 좋고 12번 같은 경우에는 종종 락 보컬들이 커버하는 영상을 많이 볼 수 있다.   Apr 6, 2024

아름답고 부드럽다. 복잡한 구성의 멜로디가 유려하게 이어져 빗물처럼 시냇물처럼 아름다운 흐름을 이루어내고 있다. 음질과 드럼의 아쉬움을 제외한다면 최고의 앨범이다. 88점.   Apr 13, 2024

level 13 metalnrock   90/100
블랙모어가 딥퍼플에서 나와서 좋은 것은 rainbow식 음악도 들을 수 있게 되었다는 점이다. 아주 아주 특이한 감성을 갖고 있는 사람이다. 아주 헤비한 락이면서도 부분 부분 포크적인 느낌도 있고 쓰잔함도 갖고 있다. 당대의 3대장하고는 다른 맛을 느낄 수 있다. 1,4,6이 대표곡. 3번은 quatarmass 9번은 yardbirds 커버곡이다. 희한하게 LP의 양면 라벨이 바뀐 것도 있다.   Apr 16, 2024

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

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.   3 days ago

개인적으로 이 프론티어 레이블의 파란색 바탕 앨범 시리즈를 좋아한다. 분명 이제는 예전의 보컬이 아니기는 하나 오히려 터프한 면이 있는 보컬이 특색이라고 할 수 있다. 프론티어에서의 이 앨범이 나에게 엄청 좋은 느낌으로 다가온 것은 사실이다. 7번에서도 여전히 쉽지 않은 고역을 소화해준다. 라센반은 13번 곡 "First Love (Orchestral Version)"가 포함되었다.   Apr 3, 2024
