Personally, my best Darkspace album. This music is a trip to another dimension. You listen and you feel that gravity disappears. When it ends, you coming back to Earth tired, but full of experience.

Sick.Fuckin sick.

Amazing album. Love this band's sound.

So do I, but not here so much. Lacks the refinement and depth of subsequent releases.

Seems I'm in for a treat then. I'm chronologically checking out Darkspace's discography, so I'll have to listen to the other albums yet.

Personally I think they get better and better through the discog. Check out Paysage d'Hiver's last record too. Sounds more like a Darkspace record than anything.

Will do. Thanks for the info.

Just so you know, 90% of Paysage's discog is hidden on MS as they're all considered demos, just in case you were wondering about it

Good to know, but why are they considered demos?

Don't know to be honest. I've asked the question time and time again why a demo is different to a regular release when both are music put on a medium of some sort and sold to the public for money. I don't see why demos should be automatically hidden on MS.

I think demos are like rough copies, so they aren't considered to be completed works. At least that's my understanding of it.

By default they're hidden on the site but you can customize that in the discog section. It resets every time you leave the site though.

I find that kind of an arbitrary distinction really. I've heard some shockingly poor, bedroom black metal albums that are referred to as albums. Where does the rough version end and the "finished" version begin? The fact that Paysage d'Hiver have consistently released records suggests to me that they are finished, because they were put on sale. If, say, Akerfeldt turned around and claimed that X Opeth album wasn't quite how he wanted it but released it anyway would that make it a demo?

It would also imply that a finished version of said demo would be released, which has never happened to Paysage, and tends not to with other demos either.

This is their first and best album. The last track is a killer !
I don't think I have more time for their following identical duplicates.

Demo is not all "rough".
It's a limited release for music labels to test the marketability of a band before deciding if the band has a potential to release a full length album (studio album). Due to the time of recording (usually 10mins-15mins), music label can save the production cost and sell cheaper. Demo will not be re-issued so it's good for some collectors but not really a very serious release, showing discrography of demos is a waste of time so its better off leaving it hidden.
