Do you ever fall in love with an album purely because of its production?

I was about to come talk some mad shit about how WITTR ruined music by influencing all of these PNW-Atmoblack style bands, buuuuuuut this is pretty good. Huge atmosphere with heavy harsh vocals.

Yeah, my initial impression of this was that there's some strong material here, let down by the production.

There's some really ugly ducking on the guitars in places that I found really jarring. Need to listen again though.

I'm on the opposite end, I think the production is the best thing about it

And that's what I love about music: everyone can appreciate something different in every release.

Will you be reviewing this one?

Will you be reviewing this one?

I'd love to but I already have 3 albums in my queue from the same day + there might be some others from the same day I'm more interested in + I really have to start working on some college stuff this semester

But I still might do it

Yeah I actually like the production here, I can see it being divisive (particularly in what it does to some of the higher pitched tremolos) but I think it actually works quite well. The -gaze/post-rock sections might also help with the appeal of the production; interesting record in general

Edit: OK so I'm nearly at the end and 'atmospheric doom metal' doesn't seem entirely accurate; without tags I would probably think it was a metalgaze album on more of the songs (2 and 5 I can understand the doom tag on). Interesting album either way, I like it

First chance I've had to revisit this since I first heard it, it's really quite something - I've never heard such a combo of lo-fi production, euphoric blackgaze, epic doom and more welded together like this, and it works so well

This production is fuzzier than a 3 month old loaf of bread.

I didn't like the production at all. The album also sounded average but for the song "bleed with me". That song alone hits the ball out of the park, hits it for a home run, hits it for a sixer.
