 | Mongi123 You should listen to Slift man. They are so crazy creative and incredible.
|
| Mongi123 To be fair, it?s super difficult to come of a marvel of an action movie that is Fallout on all fronts. I may not ever watch that movie due to its length. I suffered through The Way Of Water which is enough lol Saltburn was?.fine?? I guess?? It was just kind of like?fine. A little gross but fine. I have nothing to really say about that one. Barry what?s his name was great.
|
| Mongi123 You DARE leave out Mission Impossible? I looove it haha yeah John Wick 4, Oppy and Guardians and Spiderverse slay
|
| Mongi123 Ooooo all the stuff I mentioned and to an extent the Mario and Spider Man 2 game you gotta play me. Such a time to be a gamer in 2023. And RDR2 will always be god tier.
|
| Mongi123 Regarding art in general though. On the gaming front, 2023 was one of the most vibrant, creative and stacked years ever for me :D RE4 and Dead Space remake, Lies Of P, Alan Wake 2, Zelda, Mario, spider man 2, Pikmin 4, Jedi Survivor, just what an inspiring year. It?s calming down a little bit finally
|
| Mongi123 Oh god the milquetoast stuff. Earthside kinda disappointed lol but There Will Be Fireworks ruled and it?s growing. Though I did just start listening to this new Slift album and it?s amazing and unique. Sort of like a cross between Devin Townsend and Night Verses with a stoner edge it?s massive.
|
| Mongi123 My bands seem to be at a stand still or broken up at the moment so I need new muuusic. Kinda why I?m getting back into hip hop type stuff
|
| Mongi123 I don?t like when artists abandon their superior project in service of a mid one. Like cmooooon give us more Radioheeeeead.
|
| Mongi123 You should try Poets Of The Fall. They?re in the Remedy games as Old Gods Of Asgard and they?re good in real life. Carnival Of Rust is a simple but really creative rock album.
|
| Mongi123 Man The Smile in their debut is so painfully mid until the last couple of tracks I?m so surprised
|
| Mongi123 Nice yah I?ve never really listened to him
|
| Mongi123 Hey man I?ve been fine. And I have not. I?ve been into black metal(trying to avoid the nazi ones ugh) and getting back into hip hop and reevaluating it. Weird combo but still haha.
|
| Mongi123 The new Spiritbox and Invent Animate slap as well. I think Jaded by Spiritbox is my song of the year.
|
| Mongi123 So far I think the new Tim Hecker is my favorite of the year
|
| Mongi123 Yo man try some Sundrowned give a little unknown rec some much needed love
|
| Mongi123 You even listen to Spiritbox? A little djenty but they?ve grown on me and I suggest you try the song Constance by them. Absolutely gorgeous. And Courtney is an amazing vocalist.
|
| Mongi123 I?ve never really been the biggest fan of TN but they?re great stuff is great. The last album was like a totally different Coldplay like band
|
| Mongi123 I have not haha I don?t really have lots of interest in them anymore xD
|
| Mongi123 Is The Beggar any good? I?m gonna go their a pre 2010s binge now haha they?re a great band.
|
| Mongi123 Im halfway through Leaving Maining. The title track was amazing.
|
| Mongi123 I must be one of the only people to prefer The Glowing Man over To Be Kind by eons. I find lots of TBK to be annoying whereas TGM is downright gripping most of the time.
|
 | Feather Much appreciated Talons. Brought to the Water has always been a favorite of mine!
|
| Mongi123 Lol they?re not like Coldplay. Infinitely more magical.
|
| Mongi123 You like Duster? They?re kinda a cross between space rock and slowcore their first two albums are amazing. So unique.
|
| Mongi123 Yeah Replica is strange but I enjoy a lot of it albeit a little forgettable. Not usually my cup of tea but I love branching out.
|
| Mongi123 Nice, the song In BlueBerry Memories is incredible
|
| Mongi123 The quotes came up as question marks lol those are the lyrics to eucalyptus. It?s like what are these nickelback lyrics? That whole song reminded me of photograph hahaha I wonder what made them go down boring pop rock build territory.
|
| Mongi123 ?If you don?t take it, I?m gonna take it.? Lol or whatever he says. I wonder what happened with this album.
|
| Mongi123 Yeah that one?s a must. I can?t believe shoegaze has grown into like a top 2 genre for me haha
|
| Mongi123 You ever listen to Nothing? The Great Dismal is amazing.
|
| Mongi123 I'm trying to write a piece about why post rocks critical love has gone downhill as of late. Where would be a good place to post that once it's done?
|
| Mongi123 I also wrote a review for Holy Fawns Realm if you wanna check it out
|
| Mongi123 Thank you man! I love The Verve and Ride. Man I friggin love shoegaze and all things related and combined with it.
|
| Mongi123 Also you got any personal gaze recs for me? Really trying to broaden my gaze/dream pop horizons.
|
| Mongi123 You listen to Tim Hecker at all? He is sooooo good. Virgins is an all timer.
|
| Mongi123 Did you ever end up trying Suffocate For **** Sake??? They are incredible man. Truly something special.
|
 | Sowing If you want a link to where we're at let me know and I'll shoot you an email. All the details can be obtained there.
|
| Mongi123 New Hammock bro, and great news it?s more like EAN and their earlier stuff
|
| Mongi123 What does gotd mean lol and what exactly got hacked and what did they do?
|
| Mongi123 My god why must musicians do this lol but yes that record is amazing. I listened to Velocity half way through today and loved it. Funny because i remember not liking it a while back
|
| Mongi123 Lmao I know it?s an ironic name for a folk project
|
| Mongi123 Oh ok I thought they were folk. I just remember loooking up Ethel Cain and went down a rabbit hole of long new releases and they all happened to be folk ones lol. But I haven?t listened to them. I did try Skullcrusher though and that album was gorgeous.
|
| Mongi123 Also question: why do modern folk releases have to be 11 million hours long lol I?m sure that Ethel Cain rules but I?m sure it doesn?t have to be that long lol
|
| Mongi123 Awesome man! They?re amazing to me and endlessly replayable. DB has been like a comfort album lately and I can find very few flaws in their work.
|
| Mongi123 For real though that new Ashenspire album is brilliant. Weirdly enough Anthony Fantano turned me onto that. His end of year lists always suck because they are extremely bloated with taste, which basically consists of hip hop music. It's like I get hip hop is super on point right now and its not my cup of tea but jeez branch out a bit. I listened to some have his recs like Xiu Xiu and Black Midi and Death Grips that he worships and they suuuuuuucked lol
|
| Mongi123 Tough to say anymore because it's been like since they came out but i remember them being very mediocre 70s prog worship. The new PT really disappointed me too it felt like a drabby after thought and some of the melodies make me cringe.
|
| Mongi123 I listened to Heritage the other day after many years and woooow it was dreadfully boring and I have no earthly idea what he was trying to do on that album. Too much of the loud-then nothing-loud-then nothing trope in prog music ?
|
| Mongi123 Nice man I gotcha. Yeah modern radio music is absolutely trash because of that. As far as metal music goes, Holy Fawn has some perfect genre bending that honestly Deafheaven wishes they could do so well. And they already are efficient at it. I?ve mainly focused on branching out. I?ve been trying to get into some more electronic stuff lately.
|
| Mongi123 I?m glad things are starting to work out for you. Getting laid off for no reason sucks ass. But sometimes things are for the best.
|
| Mongi123 The pandemic exasperated ALL of the qualities I never liked about myself ten fold. So that started the necessary rabbit hole.
|
| Mongi123 What do you mean by ?specialized?? Also, if I?m diagnosed I?d be able to get the correct help I need, find the right therapists so I can get on the right medication and find out what a good line of work I could find success in. Also, most importantly Id feel so validated for feeling so different my whole life. Very tough to explain to people why it?s essential I know haha
|
| Mongi123 Also the new Rolo Tomassi and Cult Of Luna. I gotta try a lot more but I?ve had more disappointments than likes this year for new releases lol
|
| Mongi123 Well I?ve been better. Getting an ASD diagnosis and on leave from work but still jamming! My AOTY is the new Holy Fawn Record which I don?t believe you?ve listened to. Now is the time! Lift Your Head is my most jammed song this year.
|
 | pizzamachine I had an old account called kintups in which I was banned, probably for being a whiny sensitive child, but I?ve been pizzamachine since then.
|
| pizzamachine Haha I?m not Lloyd, that?s someone else I keep quoting. No idea what happened to my shoutbox.
|
| Mongi123 Dude I just want a whole album of .3
|
| Mongi123 I did really enjoy the bass heavy vibe of Harridan the most
|
| Mongi123 It?s pretty good! I can?t say I?m not disappointed and it kinda felt like an after thought compared to their others but I enjoyed it.
|
 | JohnnyoftheWell Heya yeah, I've got that dibs - wasn't wowed by it on first listen, but nothing disastrous either (and how good is Dignity??). There is q a lot of other stuff I'm interested in covering from the last/incoming few days, so if you want to take it feel free!
|
| Mongi123 That?s good to hear! I?m not gonna listen to the leak and I haven?t heard any singles so I?m gonna wait until Friday and be surprised
|
| Mongi123 Yeah I mean overall not my thing but I know I?m in the tiniest minority. Meanwhile I?m gonna start listening to more Nick Cave tomorrow!
|
| Mongi123 Idk man Carrie and Lowell is way more my style. Illinois seems waaaay too old timey and full of show tunes lol which isn?t really for me ?
|
| Mongi123 Hey I was wondering what?s your opinion on Illinois by Sufhan Stevens? Cause man I?m half way through it and idk if I can get through the whole thing lmao
|
| Mongi123 Try my dig man. You will not regret it!
|
 | Artuma hey man, thanks! a lot of great songs in there
|
 | ChoccyPhilly Ah man, great list. So many of your top 50s would definitely fit in mine too, especially some of the PT and Opeth songs. So does this mean you'll be a lurker from now on? So many people have disappeared but was still good to see you around
|
| Mongi123 That?s a quality list. Good pick for number 1. We?re indeed the ?Sputnik taste? duo lol I don?t hate it.
|
| Mongi123 Oh dope ok I?m working I?ll take a good look later while jamming Turnover cause I?m itching for some PV.
|
 | Jom Step 1: request retirement; Step 2: realize all your staff permissions get taken away due to janky coding; Step 3: reconsider retirement? Ha. Now you know for next time if/when you want to return that you have to do everything you want first before riding off into the sunset. All the best to you and congrats on the new job -- cheers!
|
| Mongi123 Good stuff man yeah I honestly think no metal band that?s been going for as long or as consistently as them are this good anymore. Or still trying new things and succeeding.
|
| Mongi123 Do you like Cult Of Luna at all? Maybe the new one isn?t the best place to start but you gotta give A Dawn To Fear a chance if you haven?t already. It?s such pinnacle metal and powerful.
|
| Mongi123 Get on that new Rolo Tomassi my friend. It?s thrilling as hell!
|
| Mongi123 That?s a great list man. I think I?d switch out part 1 with 2 as number 1 but they?re such a perfect band.
|
| Mongi123 That?s so much stuff I listen to lol
|
| Mongi123 Idk just been in a bm mood lately haha
|
| Mongi123 Yeah same, like idk if you?ve heard The Ruins of Beverat but that album had a 4.4 and sput seems to think the harsher the better with bm and their are parts I ****ing love on the album but there are so many points where the distortion is so abrasive and the overall volume of the production is so low lol
|
| Mongi123 Ayo man. Curious what you?d think. Do you think some BM artists try a little too hard at being raw to the point their production just sounds disgusting at times? Like we get it?s the aesthetic, but there?s a fine line between that aesthetic that?s done right and when it?s so harsh you can?t even make out what?s going on lol
|
| Jom Understood -- just because something was claimed doesn't mean people with 3 pieces wouldn't relinquish something, but thank you for your benevolence and good cheer through it all. Cheers!
|
| Mongi123 Yeah they remind me of Insomnium a bit, which is a good thing! I?ll listen to the whole thing this weekend.
|
| Mongi123 Yeah the first track of Swallow The Suns debut is incredible
|
| Mongi123 Ooo no dang that sucks. She?s so friggin talented.
|
| Mongi123 I?ve been eyeing them recently I should. Btw do you listen to Fiona Apple at all. She?s amaaaazing, if not you should.
|
| Mongi123 Yeah I will soon. Been really trying to stack up on new stuff lately. I?ve been really loving I could live in hope by Low.
|
| Mongi123 Dude it?s like?fine and anything?but it?s a case of the first of its kind it?s always the best for me. It?s only 48 minutes but feels sooo much longer.
|
| Mongi123 I feel like all the tempos kinda sound the same and the whole reason Lost In The Dream was so amazing was because the music had time to breath and his voice wasn?t the focus, the atmosphere was. Here, his voice sounds super thin here idk. None of the melodies are memorable either.
|
| Mongi123 I started the new War On Drugs and oomph it?s kinda rough lol
|
| Mongi123 Yeahhhh man I?m so excited. And plus new Hammock on Friday! XD
|
| Mongi123 Oh whoa a new War on Drugs. Dooope. And new Hammock in November omg (:
|
| Mongi123 Let me tell you man it?s been such a great summer and fall for new releases. Omg so much good s***.
|
| Mongi123 Really glad you like it man! But daaaang that Kayo Dot rating xD
|
| JohnnyoftheWell ...I'll add some more to that ranking tomoz and you'll hopefully get a more detailed picture :///!!!
|
| JohnnyoftheWell hi hi hi, lots of good qs - Get Out of the Tower is the most representative of the singles imo, and Void probs the least. the album as a whole has this really doomy presence that kinda evokes Psychobells era motw with big time occult fantasy vibes and none of the same goofish whimsy, but it's also v different in ways you've already picked up on. it's, uh, tough to map out and I'm having more trouble with the rev than i expected ngl (1 messy first draft down, ugh), but...
|
| Mongi123 So ayyy how's that Illusory Walls listen going? For the album that's proving musical creativity still exists huh? (;
|
 | jimthefish the new Self Insert ep might be up ur alley for a review, its this fresh mix of electronic, experimental, hip-hop and rock that's very futuristic in feel. my fav song is Technophilia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbIlkN-iFb0
|
| Mongi123 Dude you GOTTA try the new The World Is A Beautiful Place?It?s blowing me away it?s like a different band in the best way
|
 | chemicalmarriage Hey man I really loved your tool list. I made a cover of disposition awhile ago and thought you may be interested in hearing a fans interpretation of this amazing song. If you are interested it can be heard here https://joshcoy.bandcamp.com/track/disposition
|
| Mongi123 Oh I gotcha I thought it was out. We shall see haha
|
| Mongi123 So question: would I like the new Kayo Dot do you think? Lol
|
| Mongi123 Yooo man you need to try some Blazing Helicoptors omg this is absolutely stunning genre bending music. Their band description seems pretentious but it?s shockingly earned.
|
 | SharpsRevenge Im surprised he wanted to get dibbs on it because it doesn't seem like he really likes the band lol Right on thanks for responding though! I appreciate it. enjoy your reviews
|
| Mongi123 Yo the new Wolves In The Throne room bro? Hell yeah it?s Atmospheric BMtastic!
|
| SharpsRevenge Can you please review infinite granite so the 2.9 review goes away as the featured review? haha i don't want the 2.9 on metacritic. if not i understand. Figured it was worth a try!
|
| Mongi123 Mombasa omg what a gorgeously written song that is. So genuinely propulsive and emotional. They?re really expects at making loud distorted harsh walls of sound sound so clear (:
|
| Mongi123 Dude Mombasa and The Gnashing blows me away. I?m stoked for the new Leprous on Friday and also Rolo Tommasi released a dope single so happy happy day!
|
| Mongi123 Hey man. Happy with Infinite Granite too? It?s pretty bottom heavy for me but overall it?s a pretty sublime detour to take things in.
|
| Mongi123 Yea i feel you. I wish i could love everything I hear and be like Sowing but i simply don't have that superpower haha
|
| Mongi123 Haha more power to you. Gonna have to say seriously not my cup of tea. Not bad music or anything, at times the glitchiness is mildly irritating, but it's a pleasant listen, with a few songs I liked.
|
| Mongi123 Hey man i've been pretty good. Finally found a new job i'm starting soon so things are looking up. Just kinda avoiding the internet altogether. Just finished Homeland and watching Banshee now. You?
|
 | AnimalsAsSummit Totally agree! Came out better than I could have ever hoped
|
| AnimalsAsSummit But yeah homie doing great, hope you are too! Me and my band have a new album out if you get bored: https://millicentwaffles.bandcamp.com/album/lotus-peace-processor
|
| AnimalsAsSummit I?ve heard both just don?t have them rated but I will have to give them another jam and rate ASAP
|
 | Mythodea ... add much meat and flesh into it. Having said all that, I do believe ''Self'', ''King Ghost'' and ''Eminent Sleaze'' have some strong parts, and the Broadway-esque choir on ''Personal Shopper'' is a nice touch, but can be also seen as gimmicks (and he can't hide his Prince-worship). Are you baking a review for it? I was asking Dewi about you just last night and today I saw your inbox!
|
| Mythodea Hi there! New Steven Wilson is giving me mixed feelings. On the one hand I do like some of the things he's put into it, but on the other, it feels devoid of any true songs. I listened to it once yesterday, and it felt flat throughout. Like a compilation of songs, rather than an album project (which is the entire philosophy behind albums like H.C.E.). A lyrical concept is not enough to redeem it from its inconsistency, and I feel like the short duration is evidence of his awkwardness to....
|
| Mongi123 Yea Envy would be my number 1 followed by Fiona Apple. Opinions and all but apparently their number pick is better than an important album like Fetch The Bolt Cutters or Run The Jewels 4. I?ve been playing Dark Souls 2 and hating myself. Lol almost done and finally gave it a fair chance. I?ve always disliked that one. But nice man! Good luck with the job search I know it?s a tough one out there ugh
|
| Mongi123 Sup bro how you doing? I?ve just kinda been staying off the internet and rekindling with albums I love and jamming my playlists. It?s a much needed hiatus from new music for me. Also the staff number 1 is absolute crap as usual lol
|
| Mongi123 Wow I?m sorry to hear about your leg man I hope you recover soon. I myself recently went deaf in one ear we?re basically no reason. Gotta love it lol but still jamming without headphones just in case(sorry mom you?re gonna hear some metal lol) and gaming and doing a remote job as roadside dispatch.
|
| Mongi123 Hey bro been pretty good! Just been laying low and doing a remote job. Listening to lots of music constantly and reading and watching shows and movies. You man?
|
 | Lord(e)Po)))ts Hey man, i know we are in a pandemic and money is tight for everyone but I put together a gofundme for minushuman. I dont know if you saw his list but he suffered a pretty brutal loss this weekend and I thought maybe we could all chip in a few bucks and help him out with groceries or rent or whatever this month while he works through this tough time. If you can donate a few bucks and share this with some other users to help spread the word that would be awesome: https://gf.me/u/y743c5
|
 | Rowan5215 I was hoping to man but study kinda slammed me so if you have something written go for it
|
| Sowing First impressions are always liars, so I'm going to let it sink in and spin it a few more times before reviewing it. My initial takeaway is that it's like a better produced Helplessness Blues - lost some of the artsy ambition of Crack-Up but also made up for it by being more memorable overall with the melodies. It's tough to predict, but right now I'd say it's right in line with all their other masterpieces.
|
| Sowing how did you hear the new FF??? it's only streaming for me in like 40 mins
|
| AnimalsAsSummit Brand new album out man: : https://kinggreenied.bandcamp.com/album/through-us-in-radar
|
| Mongi123 Also feel free to listen to my post rock playlist on Spotify! I made a big one xD
|
| Mongi123 Sup dude, you gotta try out some Envy and Hum. Some of my latest obsessions and Envy's newest album is a damn masterpiece.
|
 | ashcrash9 Sup buddy, hope you're doing well. I released an EP this past weekend, it'd mean a lot if you gave it a listen. https://theheistrevenge.bandcamp.com/album/after-never-comes
|
| AnimalsAsSummit Also those Drum and Bliss albums are very unknown. Hugely influential to me and two of my favorite albums ever.
|
| AnimalsAsSummit Yes. Perfect song. I'm really thankful for the new Sweet Trip on that compilation. They also did a Rocketship remix which I love from it. Best band!
|
| ChoccyPhilly Whilst we're on the inevitable topic of prog, i MUST recommend Burden of Life - The Makeshift Conqueror. The only prog metal album recently to really capture me. How about a rec from you for old time's sake?
|
| Mongi123 I did man nice list. Obviously love that Ecallies is number 2 haha xD
|
| ChoccyPhilly Yo man where've you been recently? Pandemic got me sputniking loads but miss seeing you around these parts
|
| Mongi123 We got a pretty packed day tomorrow with Ulcerate and Katatonia I?m stoked!
|
| Mongi123 Ayyy Total Life Forever is dope stuff bro!
|
 | Winesburgohio hey mate sorry about the miscommunication, i like ur write-up!!! the only question is what to do now; my drunken mind thought we could integrate the two but that might cause commotion. or we could give it a try. or you can take it. idk we're in unchartered waters m'boy
|
| AnimalsAsSummit currently yeah I would say they're pretty big along with the other stuff I jam ;) and definitely do! both are still under represented on here i feel
|
| AnimalsAsSummit Try my new album if you get to it, just came out today on all platforms: https://kinggreenied.bandcamp.com/album/new-sounds
|
| Mongi123 Nice getting into M83 man he?s so amazing. S=Y is sooo underrated.
|
| Mongi123 Jersey just battened down the hatches we're goin full statewide quarantine lol
|
| Mongi123 Yeeeeeeea Sabbath is amazing man. And sure man I'll be sure to do that.
|
| Mongi123 Lmao yep, I?ve been binging The Expanse and listening to lots of music myself. I?ve embraced grungy stuff and expanded into stoner and doom stuff a bit more.
|
 | parksungjoon thoughts? https://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/81019/Burzum-Thulêan-Mysteries/
|
| Mongi123 What's up bro! I hope you're safe and healthy in these hard times.
|
 | OmairSh Yoo Ben, how's it going dude? Been a while. I'm trying to get mentally prepared to the idea that I have to remain indoors for at least 2 weeks straight haha, I'm sure you and everyone else is in the same situation. Strange times eh. On a less dire note, I've made a new list of Pakistani songs that you might like a few of if you're interested https://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?memberid=673174
|
| Mongi123 that band Boris you just rated is named after their influential track off Bullhead ?Boris?
|
| Mongi123 Prob Bullhead and Houdini. Both are major influences in the spectrum of stoner/doom/sludge metal and they?re brilliant
|
| Mongi123 You ever listen to Melvins? They're fantastic man.
|
| parksungjoon sorry its been fixed now. thanks for the response though! i do try to be mindful of filesize and whatnot
|
| parksungjoon https://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?listid=190800
|
| Mongi123 Nice WS rating it?s one of the best post rock albums I?ve ever heard. Fire Made Flesh is hnnnnnnngg
|
| Mongi123 Yo pumped for the new Caspian tomorrow?! Their single Flowers Of Light is stunning.
|
| Mongi123 Oh damn whelp they're amazing! Alone, Anchor and What Can I say are stunning.
|
| Mongi123 Cool we're both getting into Trespassers William haha they're my new obsession lately.
|
 | DDDeftoneDDD Hey there. Any way I can get my list feat? Tks Tallons! Your list is awesome. 1 is 1!
|
 | CaptainDooRight hi bro how are you?? can i share my new trvth album with you? https://trvth.bandcamp.com/album/inordinate-and-surpassing
|
| Mongi123 So how about those Cult Of Luna and State Faults listens before you make those end of the year lists (;
|
| Mongi123 Don't forget about Cult Of Luna and State Faults either (;
|
| Mongi123 They're one of the few bands that have stuck with me since middle school and Clarity is still one of my fav albums of all time. They try some different stuff on Delivery, 555, Recommit and Congratulations.
|
| Artuma yeah, it was really good but i'm kind of feeling like it's just skeleton tree part 2 which i wasn't really asking for. i love nick the most when he's angry and making me uncomfortable
|
| Mongi123 As much as I detest lumping them into it but dude the new Jimmy Eat World is gooooood you gotta try it
|
| Mongi123 Hahaha didn?t like Emotion? People seem to like that one on here. Radio pop usually suuuuucks but Billie Ellish new single is actually pretty great.
|
| Mongi123 I've thought about it a lot but I just don't have the motivation to do it lol I'm surprised it still has none though.
|
| Artuma hell yes man, been binging on his stuff lately, especially i let love in
|
| Mongi123 I hear ya haha I just love any style of theirs so much.
|
| Mongi123 Nice Hammock rating man. I think they'll take a break now cause it was meant to be a trilogy.
|
| Mongi123 Haha their last three were a trilogy haha that?s why they?ve been so prolific
|
| Mongi123 New hammock in case you didn?t know man!
|
 | buffserker1919 Hey Benjamin! Your review of the most recent Contortionist record really stood out to me. Would you mind listening to "Passageways: Haan" by Nick Bufalino and writing up a review if it compels you? Thanks.
|
| Mongi123 Very satisfying month for me anyways xD
|
| Mongi123 These phantom 1s are starting to piss me off. Anyway, new Alcest is awesome of course. The title track is outstanding.
|
 | Trifolium They are incredibly loved and appreciated if I am correct. Plus they practically invented Opeth too, right? Mike is a huge fan. So there's every reason for me to like them. We'll see, soon hopefully!
|
| Trifolium I know!!! I like them, but never really looked into them enough even though I have copies of these at home. They're more like placeholder ratings though, I've been meaning to give them a more thorough listen for ages and hoped this would finally make me do it.
|
| Mongi123 Nope Leprous and Alcest are on Friday!
|
| Mongi123 These past weeks are like heaven for me. JEW, Alcest and Leprous!
|
| Mongi123 New JEW is an absolute blast man
|
| Trifolium Cool thanks! I'll ask around there too.
|
| Trifolium Hi Talons! I've got a question concerning an upcoming release. Do you perhaps know whether the new Underworld, which will be released November 1st, is going to be reviewed by staff or contribs? I'd like to see it reviewed and was wondering whether I should start to plan a review for it myself, but not at the risk of doing a job you guys will be doing anyway. Thanks!
|
| Mongi123 Not TOO many things have impressed me this year but damn two 5s come from it. The new COL and State Faults are insane you gotta try them.
