  • cylinder And yeah the Blowtorch side is kinda hilarious lol, I love how it's not even on the album's bandcamp page, there's just a link to the youtube video for it. I guess Blowtorch might not have a bandcamp- i dunno, kinda funny tho. And ah, Mulholland Dr, that's what it's from! I knew I recognized it but I haven't seen that in a while. Very cool thing to sample from

  • cylinder Yeah you're right, we don't have to switch off. That was Sput-mentality acting up, I guess. Like "no, I wanted to be the one to review that one!" lol. You're right, the more the merrier. And yeah that LDOH album ****in slays. Goregrind has been clicking hard for me lately. It used to all sound so homogenous but now that I've heard so much bdm, slam, grind, and noisecore, I feel like I'm getting a lot more discerning of all the subtle differences in technique between bands.

  • cylinder Maybe we could take turns with Effluence, considering he's got a bunch more on the way XD I'm gonna start checking his other projects too.

  • cylinder sense he tries to do that with his concepts too. Given dm's preoccupation with death in its concepts tho, I'm just surprised I haven't seen another dm band arrive at this concept before, at least not in such a direct way. I feel like if a dm band tried to do this concept back in the 90s, they would've been laughed at. Like, "how can plants be brutal?" Well, Effluence found a way lol. Now I'm inspired, maybe I'll try to write a review too.

  • cylinder Agreed. I think it's becoming my favorite too, topping both Spawning and Sarmat. It's just so satisfying, addicting and replayable. More compact and digestible than Sarmat and even more strange, esoteric layers to it than Spawning or Liquified. I love the concept so much too. 'Necrobiology,' as in the life... of dead things? It's a paradox and yet it also makes sense in a weird way. I think it's perfect for Effluence's aesthetic too- he's reimagined what dm can be musically so it only makes
