Shadowspawn | Cadaver Dogs | 7.4 Cognizance | In Light, No Shape | 7.41 Mire | Pale Reflection | 7.68 Mors Verum | Canvas | 7.9 The Biscuit Merchant | Golden Age | 7.77 WOAZIEKIK | | Misanthrope | Embrasement | 7.65 Juju | 44 ME | 6.23 Bloody Falls | IV | 7.3 Marianas Rest | The Bereaved | 8.25 Gaerea | Loss | 7.45 Temple of Void | The Crawl | 8.1 Monosphere | Amnesia | 7.2 Void of Light | Asymmetries | 7.59 Frozen Soul | No Place of Warmth | 7.2 Much better than I remembered from the previous albums. It's pretty groovy, also Slam infused at times. I like the meaty sound. Overall good energy and intensity. Galibot | Catabase | 7.23 Good meloblack with a rather cold and dark atmosphere (the cover fits the atmosphere well actually). I really liked the harsh female vocals in there, very powerful! Fossilization | Advent Of Wounds | 7.32 Crone | Eluna | 8.1 This not metal, but the atmosphere is just sooo good! Experimental, space-y, fast and psychedelic. Tyrannus | Mournhold | 7.41 Horn | Apokalyps 1618 | 7.45 Very cool meloblack with hints of pagan. That's totally my style, and it's very well executed, with a great atmosphere and good vocals. Funebrarum | Beckoning The Void of Eternal Silence | 6.78 Nothing exceptional, but I quite liked the production and the goth / sympho black vibes. Worm should be jealous of the production on this one, their last album could actually be good if it sounded like this one. Darklore | The Great Elven War | 6.35 Ectovoid | In Unreality's Coffin | 7.15 Harboured | We're Only The Love That We Lead | 6.2 Distorted Aura | Swarm of Insanity | The Holeum | Ensis | 7.62 Microorganizm | Eternal High | Bloody Valkyria | Requiem: Reveries Of The Dying | 7.56 Ethereal Darkness | Echoes | 8.2 Barn | Crucibles | 7.47 Six Feet Under | Next to Die | 6.8 Fateful Finality | Desolation | 6.67 Bring Me the Horizon | Count Your Blessings | Repented | 6.1 I have been headbanging throughout this listen. But overall it's still not really my style. I was expecting more melodeath ala Heaven Shall Burn when I saw that album labelled Melodeath on RYM. Mastodon | Marrow Deep | 6.8 Sounded pretty nice overall, but 1h is unfortunately way too long for me, I probably will never come back to it. It doesn't have enough impact for me to justify this length. Great cover though. Lamb of God | Into Oblivion | 6.78 Myrath | Wilderness of Mirrors | Non Est Deus | Blessings and Curses | 6.78 Monument of Misanthropy | Washington State Charm | Soen | Reliance | Immolation | Descent | 6.23 Dnd Back | The Map Room | Yoth Iria | Gone with the Devil | 7.43 Nuclear Tomb | Epoch Inhumane | 6.32 Hulder | Verbolgen | 7.78 I did not connect with Hulder's first album but really like this one. It reminds of Vermilia without the atmospheric passages. Kind of at the juncture of atmospheric / melodic / pagan black metal. Fading Aeon | Fading Aeon | 7.92 Enshine | Elevation | Mentalecho | LSBlues | Nazghor | A World Ablaze | 6.2 DoHm | Beyond Consent | 6.7 Hanging Garden | Isle of Bliss | 7.73 Archspire | Too Fast To Die | 7.2 Reeking Aura | On the Promise of the Moon | 6.58 Primordial Black | Heterotopia | 6.2 Devenial Verdict | Old Blood - Fresh Wounds | 7.08 Gladium Regis | Quest | Psycroptic | The Pulse of Annihilation | 7.43 Finsterforst | Still | 7.83 Hecate Enthroned | The Corpse of a Titan, A Lament Long Buried | 7.14 Dimmu Borgir | Grand Serpent Rising | 5.7 Pretty boring and flat. Nothing really catchy and memorable in there. Genus Ordinis Dei | The Land East Of Eden | 7.25 Tarlung | Axis Mundi | 7.1 Cnoc An Tursa | A Cry For The Slain | Ashen Horde | The Harvest | 7.22 Atavistia | Old Gods Awaken | 7.1 Antropoceno | No Ritmo da Terra | 7.2 APOLAUSTIC | No Plenitude Without Suffering | 6.57 Deliverance | The Voyager Golden Banquet | 6.89 Forsmán | Brenndar Rústir og Fuðrandi Fjörur | 6.5 The sound is big and powerful, reminding of Misþyrming and at times of Behemoth. I felt like trying it the moment I heard a snippet. Unfortunately I found the whole thing a bit flat in the end.. Nothing really wrong, but it didn't grab me. Moonspell | Far From God | 7.07 Coma Control | Shed the Sleep | 6.89 A bit less fun than their first album in my opinion. It is still a pretty good prog / death album, but at times it felt a bit too close to Opeth whereas the first one flowed more between various influences. Gorod | The Ember Gone | 8.1 Edoma | Hymns of the Ice Kingdom | HROB | Brána Chladu | 6.34 Stormkeep | The Nocturnes Of Iswylm | 6.8 Together to the Stars | Iridescence | 7.28 ZØRZA | Twilight of the Golden Star | 6.65 It's a shame the singer from the previous album seems gone now, his voice is what initially triggered my attention here. It is still a very good album, but something is missing for me now. Vafurlogi | Gneisti Af Eldi Guðs | 6.67 When I first heard extract of this album in a YouTube top video, and saw the album cover, I thought of Vukari’s latest album. Unfortunately this one didn’t manage to take me to similar heights. It is very well produced, has good melodies, but it sounds a bit monolithic and lacks clear memorable moments for me. Sojourner | Gateways | 6.8 I had much higher hopes for this I have to say, especially since I heard the very first single. In the end I felt mostly let down by the production, which didn't seem big and clean enough. It was nice hearing Heike in this context though, and I think it fits her emotionality perfectly, even more than Death/Doom imo, so I hope she continues that way, either with an improved Sojourner album or another band in the future. Namu | Wretched Spawns of Iniquitous Orders | Synthien | Mile High Club Vol. 1 | Mortal Void | Death Salvation | 6.27 Distorted Aura | Mass of Resurrection | Peut-être que Jack Lang il est sincère ? | | Green Carnation | A Dark Poem, Part II: Sanguis | 6.4 Aversio Humanitatis | To Become the Endless Static | 7.4 Angine de poitrine | Vol.II | Serpent Icon | Tombstone Stories | Elder | Through Zero | 6.3 Fires in the Distance | Circadian Promise | 7.8 A Forest of Stars | Stack Overflow In Corpse Pile Interface | 6.8 There are some very nice moments in there, and I really like the vocals. But this waaaay too long for me. I will probably never listen to it again. A 45mn runtime would have been perfect, after that I starting getting bored because it was a bit too repetitive.
