why does banjo and black metal fit so well?

Album Rating: 3.5

banjo's got that weird earthiness to it, like its melancholy tranquility is a part of nature.

Amazing yeah.

damn took me too long to get to this one. definitely best panopticon, easily tops Autumn Eternal for me. Scars of Man was my favorite, but this takes the cake. Mixes his two styles better than the others I think.

definitely better than on kentucky

Album Rating: 4.5

yeah, although I do like kentucky better than most people here

Kentucky is so hit or miss for me. I would rank this trilogy Roads to the North, Autumn Eternal, and then Kentucky. Though I will say Kentucky is probably the most "important" album out of the three as it introduced the style of weird blackened melodeath folk Austin has stuck with since it came out.

Album Rating: 3.5

i don't count Kentucky as part of the trilogy. It was still introducing and coalescing ideas that'd be better generalized into one sound on later records. The next three records all essentially have the same bm/post-rock/folk songwriting style as each other (with different aesthetic qualities to sound different from one another) whereas Kentucky is quite a bit stylistically unique.
