| artiswar hey, sorry for saying edgy s***. it was bad timing and in poor taste probably. I'm probably going to say more stupid s*** in the future cause I'm dumb but I'll try to be more careful homie
|
| zaruyache you know I already had it wishlisted somehow but had no idea what it was lmao.
|
| Jots Oh I didn?t actually know you made stuff. Link?
|
| Jots or some of planning for burial?s heavier stuff
|
| Jots I think there?s bands in my vein that have black metal projects. For example, Nahvalr (the have a nice life project)
|
| garas That one from 2015 is amazing, and the new one is also just as perfect - in my opinion. Everything was given for me: atmosphere, super polished post-black riffs and the expected weirdness.
|
| garas I believe my AOTY will be Black Medium Current by Dodheimsgard. But I do love the new BAN a lot as well! Shame on me though, because I did not listen to that much stuff this year than I wanted to.
|
| Hawks Damn son your Horrendous soundoff has me pumped. m/
|
| Toondude10 that's cool, yeah Yellowstone is a great place to hang around for the most part
|
| Toondude10 Went to Yellowstone with the family for a week, was a really nice vacation, aside from the stupid amount of traffic lmao
|
| Toondude10 also sorry for the very late reply, just got back from vacation :P
|
| Toondude10 sup dude, doing alright. trying to get back to being active on the site lmao. what about you?
|
| Gnocchi You'd probably find the Sunny's how to review music blog post engaging.
|
| DungeonBoy Well I was actually thinking when I wrote it that the track would come in right on the last note of the intro song, so it's like bomp bomp BOMP (song starts). But it's kinda cool how it starts as is as well, it's a bit jarring but works if that makes sense.
|
| DungeonBoy Sorry man! This week has been busy as hell, but I meant to email you back. That song is an absolute ripper, I love it. Send me an email or message on here if you want to chat about something. Again, sorry, I meant to respond.
|
| peartnoy I entered it as a full length because it works as a full album split into two parts (Chapter I and II). As an LP it's short but idk Novelist's new release is like 5 minutes longer. Both make sense I guess.
|
| peartnoy It's all good man, I don't expect people to put my band at the center of their musical life lol. Glad you enjoyed it :)
|
| peartnoy Hey mister. New Eternal Closure album is out now. If you wanted to check it out please tell me what you think :)
|
| ToSmokMuzyki behind the ben n jerrys 12 pm be there be square
|
| TheNotrap Cheers, as I mentioned, I was trying to keep the thread from becoming a sewer, but things are what they are and we have to move on as a community. Keep rocking
|
| ToSmokMuzyki haha didnt realize it was your band. yeah that solo was tight af sometimes the best things just happen when they need to be done
|
| DungeonBoy oh hell yeah brother this is sick as s*** \\m/ really loving the sound on this and filthy old school vibe. Sick riffs, vox, drums, and the production is perfect. Very impressed my dude. Upcoming Tomb split when?
|
| Hyperion1001 check the entry on Drudkh in this list: https://rateyourmusic.com/list/HelloInquisitor/black-metal-bands-and-their-politics/a better way to say it would be ?they?ve tried to distance themselves from the NS ties?. Whether or not they?ve successfully done that is up to you. i like and listen to Drudkh, but I wouldn?t be comfortable providing a platform for the band.
|
| Sowing haha I'm sure it's not bad. just shoot me the basics: artist bio, genre(s), band lineup, official website/bandcamp, most recent release, and any other sput user(s) in the project if applicable. the email is sowingsputnik@gmail.com
|
| DungeonBoy Hey dude! I just released a new track from my upcoming death metal EP. I'd love to hear your thoughts on it: https://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?listid=198117
|
| Jots sorta like early Low or Codeine or Red House Painters in general feel
|
| Jots ay thx for the support - hope you don?t h8 it :)
|
| DungeonBoy dude, i'd gladly record some acoustic for Dark Watcher if you had some ideas, I can go a lot darker and or western than RF :)
|
| lalchimiste Hey man, nice to see your really prolific and as usual thanks for sharing. Really digging the compositions and the with plenty of recurring melodic patterns, cohesion and americana vibes. Great mixing as well, everything sounds balanced(mids high) with a nice low end. Great atuff man you should be very proud. Orb is a monster jam
|
| DungeonBoy Nice, dude, just gave it a full listen. Sounds good, you guys are starting to sound a lot more cohesive. A Devil on Yonder Ridge was my favorite track on here, I found it the most interesting and best sounding, really dug the vox on it and that verse riff is sick. Good stuff
|
| Dedes G ****ing G Devil on Yonder Ridge certified country bad boy anthem
|
| Dedes Hell yeah I will dude! I loved the first Dark Watcher ep you did, perfect balance of kvlt and yeehaw. Lol I'll jam it later today!
|
| Gnocchi And as far as the music is concerned, consider it added to my playlist : ]
|
| Gnocchi Yeah thanks dude. Some seriously big shoes to fill as far as staffdom goes. m/
|
| garas Dark Watcher has an unique atmosphere - if you could "extend" that to a full length, then I'm sure the result will be satisfying!
|
| garas Congrats, man! I really liked the EP, and I wish I can enjoy something lengthier in the future! ;] An extra comment: the album cover was a most excellent choice, love it!
|
| Atari sweet, will check for sure!
|
| garas Oh, that's really great news! I will check it very soon! Thanks for the notif'! :]
|
| CaliggyJack Thanks. If I hadn't been banned on twitter I daresay it never would have happened.
|
| zaruyache sometimes they are nice :P tho they are a bit wacky.
|
| zaruyache i mean they're like radical commie war metal so it's kinda funny is all
|
| zaruyache lmao you got the baneblade guy for vox? XD
|
| zaruyache Yessssss. What's your war metal band?
|
| zaruyache i just checked the new Vital Spirit wew boyo they're comin for you, cowboy. get workin on them riffs 'afore they steal ya whole ranch i tellya what
|
| lalchimiste Damn man some pretty nasty black/death riffing going on man with the super low end 7string and sick pinched harmonics. You got some nice guitar chops man
|
| Pon Forgot to tell you I got around to Skaphe3. Worth hearing if you're into the disso sound like I am, but they still sound like DsO-lite to me.
|
| Pon Yeah I couldn't stand the reverb-soaked woofy drums but the EP fixed that. Neither did anything all that interesting song-writing-wise so I've not been super keen to check their new one even tho I was aware of it. But if you think it's worth listening to then I'll make sure to get around to it.
|
| Pon I haven't but then again I've been slacking on new releases for a couple weeks. I remember digging their 2017 EP way way more than Skaphe2 so is it more in the direction of the the former?
|
| DungeonBoy Thanks Game, I want to give your release a proper listen, but i'm excited from what I checked out
|
| DungeonBoy Nice dude, Mark Riddick is the dude who did all of the Arsis artwork, and definitely influenced your dude. You play guitar right?
|
| DungeonBoy Dude, what?! is that Mark Riddick artwork? sweet, will check now. I just dropped a new jam too, very different than your stuff, but maybe give it a listen if you like Vali, Musk Ox, October Falls, type stuff: https://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?memberid=594971
|
| Mythodea Yeah, from what I read, it's a sub-genre I wouldn't like, but it's good knowing things, regardless! But who knows, maybe one day I want to take revenge and drink blood from the skull of my enemies, so I need the perfect soundtrack
|
| Mythodea thanks dude ;) will check this uncharted territory of metal!
|
| Atari yeah, the toxic environment on the net surrounding the game was too much for me, especially with all the other crap going on in the world. dude, doesn't that ruin the game for you watching the whole thing before you play it lmao
|
| Atari nah, you are correct. Id it because it was a dumb idea and just became a thread for s*** posting and spoilers, lol. happy to discuss the game tho if you wanted to. you playing it?
|
| lalchimiste Hey man, I did an interview in Decibel for the Allelic project. I mentioned Dark Watcher in an answer. I hope this will bring attention to your project man! https://www.decibelmagazine.com/2020/06/19/album-stream-allelic-a-contre-vent/
|
| Gnocchi Hey bro, you going to go for the Sojourner trifecta?
|
| lalchimiste Wow, thanks man I really appreciate the feedback :)
|
| parksungjoon brother im not the one keeping up with new releases, sorry to disappoint :c . revisiting a ton of old metal again working on a list anddd also digging up other obscure oddities. ill say from what little i have heard, the new caustic wound is quite good.
|
| parksungjoon dunno how you got on that warfare noise v/a comp but cheers mate! its a good one innit
|
| lalchimiste Hey man, I have a new track streaming from my upcoming album if you want to check it out : https://www.heavyblogisheavy.com/2020/04/08/exclusive-premiere-allelic-is-back-with-des-ames-tissees-sur-terre/
|
| parksungjoon if you like the meme ones then basically everything else lmao. i like them too thats why i publish
|
| parksungjoon the flares and bt one are serious but old. the alex reece one is the best serious one. the burzum demo is technically serious but super sloppy ranting
|
| parksungjoon read my reviews mr memeritus i want to know what u think
|
| parksungjoon https://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?listid=190800
|
| Gallantin I have all my old lists on my computer. Might repost them soon.
|
| Dedes Bro your ep RULES and makes me wanna play Red Dead Redemption lmao
|
| Atari seriously keep it up man. looking forward to hearing what you come up with next!
|
| Atari Not sure if you saw but I rated your album ;) good s*** man!
|
| CaptainDooRight Not really but it came out like that naturally. I thought it had mainly western vibes on the vocals only which had a slight western accent. But the music was just mid paced metal. But I?ll def jam your music, I remember liking what you did in the past
|
| CaptainDooRight Cool I definitely will. You?re the western bm style right? Do you think ?What on Earth? is a little western?
|
| CaptainDooRight oh dang sweet! youre next level mate, im glad youre enjoying it ::]]]]]
|
| CaptainDooRight hey bro jam my new trvth album, you will def dig! https://trvth.bandcamp.com/album/inordinate-and-surpassing
|
| Atari I'm on it!! my bad on the late reply
|
| DungeonBoy Super vague dude, I saw them live recently with Falls of Rauros, and I didn't get any sort of western vibes from them at all. I don't really get it, they are really good live, but I feel like they kinda miss the mark on what they are conveying, or at least how i interpret how they should sound lol.
|
| DungeonBoy Yeah man, for sure! it was surprisingly good, and not in a "I expected it to suck" kinda way, but with the aim of fusing these two ideas black metal and the wild west, together. It's more wild west than Wayfarer imo. good stuff, need to rejam it
|
| Dedes I will dude! Hopefully I'll remind myself and won't let it get buried in the mire of other stuff I gotta check lol. Btw hows s*** going man?
|
| Gnocchi Consider me on top of your shameless self promotion. Just kidding. Definitely I'll give it a spin today.
|
| Gnocchi Can completely understand. Best of luck with all that anyways.
|
| Gnocchi How long have you been Emeritus?? I thought you were staffing strong.
|
| Xenophanes Unfortunately I couldn?t find a ?good? source so perhaps I?m just talking out of my ass but I did find this blog lol: https://www.google.com/amp/s/antiblackmetal.wordpress.com/2018/07/06/alcest-is-racist/amp/
|
| Dedes Czech new Bloodred Hourglass. Really good Children of Bodom-esque melodeath
|
| hogan900 Oooooo I see ur rating, mayb it climbs will have to see :D
|
| hogan900 ive been jizzing on it for the past week now tbh
|
| hogan900 STATE FAULTS LISTEN LISTEN LISTEN
|
| Hawks It will my friend, don?t you worry!!
|
| Hawks Hey bro. So I talked to Sowing and Treb about this already but if you have any pull to possibly promote me to contrib I?d greatly appreciate it. I love writing for this site and I think I deserve the opportunity and I think I can contribute so much. I plan on calming the s*** posts and focusing solely on my writing and making this site a better place. You?re one of my closest boys here so I just wanted to state my intentions to you. :]
|
| Dedes Nah I haven't, Akasha is a part of that weird Twilight Black Circle s*** right?
|
| Dedes Idk figure it's been a hot minute just catchin' up with the homies. Boutta' jam new DsO and I'm stoked as ****
|
| CaptainDooRight Hey bro here?s my new bm album, please jam: https://trvth.bandcamp.com/album/a-galvanizing-derivation
|
| lalchimiste Sure man, you can write me up on my email and tell me what you have in mind :)
|
| lalchimiste I don't know what style your going for with your other project, but I'm down to throw in some guitar/vox/whatever and even help with the mixing (limited mixing skills, but I'm always learning new things especially with my second LP I'm working on atm). I can give you my email if your interested
|
| lalchimiste My harmonica playing is really meh and I haven't been practicing in a while. I play spoons and feet percussion pretty OK, but as far as folk instruments go I'm best at acoustic guitar. I've been practicing my harsh vox a lot lately and I've gotten quite good at it. I've been practicing drums also so my drum programming has gotten miles better as well
|
| lalchimiste Hey man, I know you got your whole thing all setup but if you ever need some vox for your project I'd be happy to help man. I've improved a bit since my first release (especially the harsh bm/dm style vox since; not much improvement for clean vox lol). Anyways I'm just throwing that out there :)
|
| Hawks Niiiiiice keep me posted!
|
| Hawks Put out an EP or something. The production was a little thin but the riffage/atmosphere were def spot on.
|
| Hawks Bro that bm track is solid as ****kkkkkkk. m/
|
| Toondude10 yeah I saw that, haven't listened to it yet
|
| Toondude10 yeah I enjoyed it. it's really just another CoB album which is fine if you really like them.
|
| Toondude10 here's a band for you https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FjQ18ykkn_U
|
| Hawks **** no I missed that, where can I jam???
|
| Atari I?ll check it out tomorrow at work ;)
|
| Toondude10 so I literally just found a band that sounds like if Hands Like Houses went a more djent sound: https://open.spotify.com/album/11OIOz5a5MgnoDWjI0VoXS
|
| Atari lol, good luck re: the new job!
|
| Atari that's pretty much where I'm at. nice profile pic haha
|
| Atari just out of curiosity, how far are you in RDR2?
|
| lalchimiste Hey Game, it seems a lot of my Sput fellow metalheads haven't checked out my project. I know you dig black/folk so if you want check out my debut LP, thanks!: https://allelic.bandcamp.com/album/the-smoke-of-atavistic-fires
|
| Pon Post the Horrendous one, celebrate the century, a review you're not fond of, post CDG review, celebrate again. Repeat for an infinite feedback loop e-festivity.
|
| Pon lol damn. I knew it was coming but didn't know it leaked. Sucks for the band and I would hate to be the person who did it.
|
| DDDeftoneDDD ahah fair enough. That was pretty much the only line I caught tbh X)
|
| DDDeftoneDDD behind a mask another mask - taken from the ending of Thou's track The Chalenging Prince I think X) rock on friend m/
|
| Desdinova men,, can you reccommend some metal of the time?
|
| Toondude10 yeah I checked out Serpents and it was pretty cool. the new one is kinda more my thing I guess though.
|
| Toondude10 well it's the first album I've heard from them so I'm not too sure how it compares to the rest of their discog, still though I enjoyed the hell out of it.
|
| Toondude10 just started listening to this band and I think you would approve https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZdeKg109ig
|
| Britch2tiger You know who I could talk to about album updating? I'm on a personal project to the reggae catalogues on this site.
|
| BlackMalachite Refuge in Indifference is my s***. That was a great EP dude, Embrace the Bomb and Filling the Trench both riff for days.
|
| Sowing Most people got into them with Boxer and regard it as a classic, so I'd say there. Personally I prefer High Violet.
|
| Nocturtle ayyy not bad the vocals were a little whack if I'm being honest but the instrumentals were nice. Should have had more br00tal breakdowns too :p
|
| Toondude10 News Flash: the new Parkway Drive album is a piece of ass
|
| Toondude10 I only heard of them about two weeks ago when their latest album dropped (the one I sent you), pretty kick ass stuff if you ask me.
|
| Toondude10 here's a band you might be interested in https://open.spotify.com/album/0AZgzaIon0lmhLjIE9ymTr
|
| TheNemeton91 Hell yeah, 4.5! Glad You enjoyed Lunn's new album!
|
| hogan900 hopesfall droppin an album too life is 2 gr8
|
| Gnocchi Tell me about it, I?ve got 4-5 I?m tossing up between. It?s only April... he users nest of lists are going to be a doozy to work on this year. Can?t wait haha
|
| hogan900 JAmming the panopticon album tn holy Lessgo
|
| Gnocchi Not as much as I want to. I?ve been catching up on dark/black/folk with some help from Atari and then the new Panopticon dropped so... still behind haha
|
| Gnocchi That Winterfylleth rating : ]
|
| hogan900 bout time you checked out Rolo !!
|
| Dedes Suck my DICK. I was on a good streak too waaa
|
| Toondude10 new Amorphis, it f*cking slaps https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xf_4uvymwRw
|
| betray https://discord.gg/vX9EAs
|
| betray you should hang out in our discord server. lots of cool people, lots of metalheads, a lot of good sput users, and me of coursei think you?d enjoy it
|
| Toondude10 the new Rivers of Nihil kicks ass, you should check it out
|
| Atari looking forward to that Sojourner write-up!
|
| manosg Really? Not a big Enya fan (I'm a huge Loreena McKennitt fan) so I didn't pick that. I did get though some mid-'90s doom/death vibes and melodies which I love and really made a big difference in how I perceived their album.
|
| manosg haha oh man, been jamming it since Saturday and really loving it. It sounds to me as more developed and diverse than their debut.
|
| XfingTheSullen Okay, thanks for the cooperation, glad you're happy :P I wonder who's gonna write a Sput review :P
|
| XfingTheSullen Well for one thing - the vox are indeed a bit too loud, especially compared to those in "delusion". Maybe turning them down a couple decibels would be better.
|
| XfingTheSullen Oh, and there some word endings cut off in some words. Wonder what purpose that was done for. Nothing too bothersome. As for the cleans then well, I personally don't think there's much wrong with them as a listener. I've heard worse performances of mine, nothing to be ashamed of here I feel :D
|
| XfingTheSullen Ok, I listened through all the six songs and I gotta say it was a veritable pleasure! Your producer has mad skills, he's really made the vox sound amazing. This is a legit 3.0-3.5 EP we have here I think. To be fair though, after listening to the clean section in the last trakc, I feel it fits quite well and builds up well for the finale. I'd actually lobby for keeping it in, but it's your call of course
|
| XfingTheSullen Did two takes, no limiting compression and considerably louder than what I had before, tell your man he can cherry-pick whatever he needs from both of them, hopefully he'll be happy this time. If need be I can record more tomorrow.
|
| XfingTheSullen yeah, overall I was pleasantly surprised with the job your man did. I'll try to record the cleans with higher mic gain, since they were indeed a good deal too quiet compared to the rest, and boosting them would have exposed way too much hiss
|
| XfingTheSullen As for the tracks that are already up - they sound good, alright! Not sure how I feel about each track being basically doubled, which gives them a weird echo-like quality, but if you're fine with it then I'm too, obviously
|
| XfingTheSullen I can redo it, no problem, though I'll have to do it tomorrow in the evening.
|
| Gnocchi Just means you?ve got a natural knack for this mate. Keep it up
|
| Dedes The Mourning Sun- Fields of the NephilimReally cool dark/hypnotic goth
|
| Dedes Dude i have a JAM for you
|
| XfingTheSullen No worries man, I'm just stoked and impatient, as always in these situations. We're kinda taking it slow with Icarus right now so I'm in a craving mood. Are you happy with my input tho, overall? I'm sure you've had a while to listen at least :D
|
| Toondude10 I saw them with on the Trivium tour a couple of months ago. They were killer. The vocalist is a pretty chill dude too. I chat with him and play games with him sometimes.
|
| Toondude10 Just noticed you liked that Fit For An Autopsy record. That's a pretty great album.
|
| TalonsOfFire The National are the ultimate grower band, it took me and many others months for their music to click. Try some of the albums they made before Sleep Well Beast, they might be a little more immediate
|
| TalonsOfFire Yeah it's been pretty dry for a few months now in terms of new releases
|
| TalonsOfFire Hey there pal hope you're having fun. I've been jamming lots of Tangerine Dream and David Sylvian lately, wbu?
|
| Jacob818Hollows Thanks again for the feedback on my list. Let me know what you think of Slow. Oceans is killer.
|
| BlackMalachite For sure man I'll go download it right now, oh yeah did you check my new album?
|
| BlackMalachite Cause those three albums kept popping up on the main sput feed and I had to check them out, eventually I'm going to listen to their other music.
|
| BlackMalachite Haha believe it or not I kept it entirely to one style, Chillwave mixed with Classical. The whole album's consistent, which is probably why it's sitting at a 3.5.
|
| BlackMalachite Hey babe, you gonna check my new album? The average is literally a whole point higher than my entire discography right now. People are actually really enjoying it - https://blackmalachite.bandcamp.com/album/motion
