Nice one dude. Not for me though. Like when will bands realize that you don’t need blaring feedback distortion or whatever you wanna call it to make your album heavy af?

Also, Mongi, it may seem so on the surface, but there are a lot details and aspects of this album that make it smth way more substantial.

I've never really been able to get into old man gloom, even though I generally dig the hell out of this style of music and Aaron Turner is kind of a musical genius to me for what he achieved with Isis.

Try this one dude, I'd be surprised if you like Isis and you can't get into a track like the closer.

Will do. The record's already drifting around in my saved playlists somewhere.

I like The Ape Of God but never really been able to get into this side of Aaron Turners music. It’s not just this band tons of bands over use that high pitched sound in the mix.

I concur. Although I suppose we'll always have Panopticon, Oceanic etc. His work with SUMAC was perhaps his most appealing non-Isis sound.



P.S. I actually kinda dig feedback

Yes relinquished that’s it.



Yes they’ll always be there thankfully. Ape Of God is dope though.



To be fair, that’s not my only issue with this, some of the songs are super duper indulgent and tedious.

I gotta sleep now but I want this thread sorted out by morning and Mongi fully convinced that this is amazing, hopefully with a 4 hanging from his posts.
