I just don't get what's going on here. An album of "jazz standards" covered.... covered in black metal. Just listen to it and be confused.

Yeah I tried this a couple of hours ago and it didn't do much for me. I was hoping for a bit more with its nice artwork and avant-garde tags. Might appeal to others though.

This one's the solo project of Forefather's Athelstan. Been fairly attached to it over the past few days but I think it would benefit from more vocals as it's mostly just instrumental. Dependable pagan/folk guitarwork though:

I had no clue what to expect but I'd say I was pleasantly surprised. I gave it a 7.8 on My 2013 List, I think that's a fair score (if not a tad generous)

I tried looking for this an hour ago but couldn't find it. Clearly not looking hard enough. This sounds hella psychedelic. And love that album art. Damn, their previous record's art work is ever better.

Yuppe! You can tell you're in for quite a treat. And boy do they deliver.

Yeah I really liked the album a lot. Will definitely be giving that more attention in the future (and maybe my money).

You buy? As in digital copies or what?

I buy stuff every now and then mostly second hand though because I'm a skinflint. I certainly wouldn't pay for a digital download though.

O RLY? I never thought you bought anything at all. Also, nothing wrong with second hand if the stuff looks good. A not-so-small portion of my collection is second hand.
I take a guess you are too lazy to add them to the database though. How many are we talking about? 3 digits?

Yeah I mostly just go through old albums I know and love and pick them up if I find them cheap. Naturally I know it's not helping out the artist in question when buying second hand though, and to be honest most of the stuff I get just sits in a pile. It's definitely over 3 digits, but a lot of it is at my house in Canterbury so I'm not exactly sure how many. I'll get around to adding it all to the database one day.

Well you do buy a shitload of tshirts.... Oh wait.

Indeed! Though I have been a bit better buying brand new with that recently (but then that's because I've gotten sick of waiting for them to appear second hand )

Not sure if this was posted yet, but here it is again if it was. Pretty pleasant sounding atmospheric post/sludge rock/metal of some description.

Bam. Some proper quality, ballsy sounding death metal. Much better than the disappointing Vorum debut.

It seems Season of Mist is jumping on the djent bandwagon. If anyone is interested in djent here you go...

Tyrant Goatgaldrakona: what a terrible bandname.

Sounds good though!

How about posting something aside from sludge? Honestly, it's getting kind of old.

How about some Tomahawk then? This song's been stuck on a loop:

No clue what to call this but the artwork was interesting and the tags are a clusterfuck so I thought I'd throw it up for anybody who might be into it...

Conceptual epic (at times atmospheric) symphonic blackened death metal...gah, what a mouthful...

No Tanner, you need to post recommendations that are under the guidelines, namely "no sludge"... oh wait... never-mind, that's fucking bullshit. Also good find, quite enjoying that album

Oh this is Jona's and Luc's band, side project of The Ocean basically.

Eh, never listened to them. According to their profile they are symphonic sludge, which explains why I've never listened to them; sludge is not my cup o' tea. But that's good info for anybody else who is familiar with or a fan of The Ocean so thanks for identifying that.

Haha, no problem. Just doing my bit to save the world

Another heavy as fuck Nails track here.

Brand new album by brand new band. If this doesn't make the next CC or Staff Pick, Fogg be mad. Seriously it's heavy, ambiant and trippy as hell.

Eight Bells - The Captain's Daughter



Would that fit into the whole "Extreme Doom" tag? I guess so...

Xtreme Music is re-releasing a classic from 93. Old School Death Metal crushing everything in its path.

Cool. This doesn't sound that different from Aluk Todolo's Occult Rock album. Very jam-like and trippy.
