* The Metal Thread *

[Somnambulist]

I think calling this metal is a bit tenuous for obvious reasons, but it's dark and foreboding enough to be worthy... caveat - listen late, in the dark, for max feels.

Every felt like you've been missing a band who pretend they're from the Iron Age?

Similar vibe except ancient Norse culture/tradition flex (ft. cameo from up and coming elfin pop starlet)

I'm going to see Heilung in November at the Roundhouse in London, am really excited to see them as it will be better to see them there in a dark venue that late afternoon at a festival in France when I saw them the first time. Really unique sound to them, and Maria got a really amazing voice.

bohren and the club of gore

You are rewarded for your patience with the most atmospheric music you will ever hear, relax and turn off the lights maybe light a fatty

I might go to that gig too if there’s tickets, not been to one for a while and they’ve got some new material out soon I think soooo.

Was listening to them today and they just seem a little too contrived for my liking. Wardruna they ain’t...

Will listen on the way home from work and review. I kinda enjoyed the tracks they released so far compared to their recent output, so here's hoping...

I'm a big fan clearly... but I am not liking the new album at all.

Meh the album is growing on me.

Time to find a new church

 

[Somnambulist]

Yeah... a solid 'meh' unfortunately, overall. Seemed to be over in a flash too, which was just as well probably.

 

[neviditelny]

Listening to the new Opeth album now, only a few songs in but it is indeed quite proggy this far Will be interesting to see how the rest goes.

every time I listen to one of their new albums since Watershed creates the same reaction; Blackwaterpark is immediately played after!

Interesting. Dude at work mentioned this band to me today as well.

Mad time sigs, interesting use of ring modulation and other effects, damn heavy, I like. Only thing is they suffer from 'generic sounding singer' syndrome, to me anyway.
