Why? Did they re-make it with a better production?

No, it's still as good as it is. But you didn't get to the end, did you?

Of course not. It's rule #1 in the "I Know Nothing" club. I'll check it out later for sure, I will probably get used to the sound. What? Do they put some dubstep on it near the end?

Haha. That's how I'll be remembered when I die. People will spit on my grave because I happen to like some dubstep . Nah, you didn't read this maybe, I added a PS to this:

Yeah, they were too on top and the drums in general take over too much while the guitar is blurry. I don't mind blurry stuff, specially not in riffs but when the drums just drown most of it, then it gets a bit annoying. I'll give it more listens though.

Actually I like that. I love the focus on the drums. It gives the impression you're actually with them in a gig. It goes with the crust side of it. Which demystifies the typical bm atmosphere the blurry guitars and inaudible vocals give. But I understand what you mean.

Edit: I don't know if you made it to the end, but the closing track is a beautiful instrumental atmosphere-focused piece, that starts doomy and ends in an unexpected post-rock up-lifting couple of minutes. I was talking about something rather emotional and sad with someone, and that ending brought tears to my eyes.

Aaaaaaawwwww you little softie.
Sounds interesting. Somehow I'm reminded of an ending track from a Gnaw Their Tongues album which I consider extremely beautiful.

Yeah I know, talking about my friend's death and crying is for pussies .
The rest of the album goes from that blackgaze thing to crust, sometimes mixes both, and the last track just ends on post-rock as I said.

I totally worded that so as to make you look like one. No harm done at all, don't worry.

Yeah Wintersun makes me so emotional. I mean just the first seconds of Starchild make me tear up like a baby.

Edit: ^sarcasm. And that post-rock ending is not THAT beautiful, I take it back. Just listened to it now.
