Once in a while there comes a time when new ways open up for music. Frontiers are being torn down and ideas can stream freely, going on a journey that takes them through many discussions and lets the creator experience both hatred and admiration. It always takes its time until a new sound is essentially established and the occasions where one can witness the birth of a new style are rare. So we are truly fortunate drunkards to live in the time where Zeal And Ardor release their second album to date, Devil Is Fine.

Man, it really sucks to miss out on that track.

I'll put my vnyl on later tonight to listen to the proper version of the song, just to piss you off
Or my mp3's of the album which also has the proper version

I got the old one on my computer so I can hear it. Just not in the original format.

It's unique, deep and what I call one of a kind, the voice of vocalist is also damn beautiful.

Okay this is wayyyyyy better than his last two outputs. Still a bit hit or miss, but overall it's a much more captivating listen. I get major Hozier vibes from a lot of the clean songs. The electronic bits remind of Prurient as well. Cool album. Blood In The Water is a phenomenal song.

Are you calling music that is a fusion of American slave music and black metal for cartoon metal? That's a first

I don't know anything about slave music and I definitely don't care about genre labels, but I know this is extremely creative and entertaining music, wacky even, whatever people want to call it.

Yeah, maybe that would be for the best. At least before writing any silly comments like mine here.

Funny enough, I never connected with them either. It amazes me how folks attracts to Z&A while my ears think otherwise. Not a single note is bearable to absorb here.

Honestly this is the only good album they ever put out, before they decided to turn into redundant rebel radio rock.

Couldn't disagree more with Cynic and Monkey there. Fucking amazing band with an absolute masterful discog and this album is simply brilliant, every note is a blessing and may we all revel in the blood of the saints & the blood of the holy. Fucking praise worthy vocal work on there too. Alt metal at its peak. When this came out I probably had it spin a couple hundred times lol... Might be pushing there, but really not that far.

This band also gives one mean show, impressive live delivery and energy. It's tight and emotional. Don't miss out if they get a gig near you. Saw them live as headliners in Montreal alongside Imperial Triumphant & Sylvaine a couple years ago and man, that was one hell of a night!!! I wasn't disappointed, also IT gave a sick show too. Sad that they were only the opening act, I could've watched that weirdness a bit longer lol.
