Really? I put it directly after the debut and slightly ahead of Temple of Venus. What do you find lacking about it?

Not really lacking much. I like the guitar sound more in ToV. Also, overall, that record is more intense. The other thing is that the vocals are too pronounced here, which I think was a bad choice.

Are these guys in to old stuff like antiques or why do they require the cassette? I think its backfiring - Shataan is almost unlistenable depsite some decent songs. And despite you guys saying that this has a decent production I think its shit.

Recording on a tape is pretty lame indeed. I can understand someone prefering vinyl because of sound quality... But other than that it's just "trying too much to be 90s"

The tracks have disappeared from bandcamp. Damn it, I should have downloaded them when I had the chance.

Wait for the real release instead, the one that will actually do justice to their music

That bandcamp devilry was too modern and fake. Only tapes are real

Blast! Was just in the mood for this as well.

You eediots, everyone knows that's the first thing you do. IT WAS FREE!

Tape is a lot cheaper than cd or vinyl. And cassettes are not a 90s thing

That it is unlistenable has nothing to do with it being released on tape. Just that the person who ripped it did so in a shitty quality, or that the band released a shitty recoprding on purpose.

Most likely a bad tape rip. The tracks up on Bandcamp were pretty impeccable sounding. Unless it was remixed for a digital release of course.

Found the good version on Soulseek. Phew.

Vocals are definitely a tad too high in the mix, but otherwise it's immense sounding.

This is why you must download the flac version as soon as posible hehe.

Can't believe how good this is :'(

I can't believe how much the circle jerk keeps changing their albums. First it was BaN's TWWTG then LoC, then Arizemnda's debut and they will probably end up camping to this now. Not that I'm blaming but it seems to weird to me considering how much you guys adored those albums especially LoC.

Also I wanna listen to this but I feel I have to listen the albums chronologically sometime. Will have a Arizmenda-thon some day soon.

Lol, I don't think people are changing their minds on things. Just slowly adding the worthy albums over the years. Can't speak for other people but this album is perfect, or as close as something can reasonably be.

This is new though. After saying how much you like The Work Which Transforms God for the nth time people start to get the idea.

Where can I listen to it? Cant find it on youtube :/

It is supposed to be cvlt and underground

Definitely hearing a more confident Arizmenda here both in the songwriting, vocals and drumming department. The songwriting is finally very efficient and hooks me instantly, the drums are no longer one dimensional and there is a lot of variation and different tempo changes. The vocals are nothing but adventurous. Could possibly their best so far. Couldn't even hold myself for the good rip and the first song instantly made listen to most of this thing. Lets see if we get the good digital rip for this before the end of next year at the very least.

But wait, we already got it I missed it though.

Ya I didn't keep an eye on it back then. :"(

God damn, Crepusculo Negro needs to get around to throwing this up on their bandcamp page.

Still waiting for the non-shitty version like four months after the release date.

Good version.
