Let's say you want to make a sandwich. You've firmly decided on white bread as your dough of choice, but being the s̶n̶o̶b̶b̶y̶ ̶a̶s̶s̶h̶o̶l̶e̶ sophisticated intellectual that you are you don't want to settle for a mere ham and cheese, that's just far too bland for your likings. So you go to the supermarket and stock up on $30 worth of ingredients to make this a sandwich more catered to your IQ points (and credit score). What results is a monumental supreme taste voyage of meat and vegetables whose numbers go beyond the limits of the human language?. or, in other words, an edible equivalent of Lifewoven, the highly impressive 2013 debut from American band Dreadnought.

This is wonderfully difficult to pigeonhole. Really unusual album.

Ah, I remember these guys from the band suggestions. A few minutes in and I'm already in love with the frontwoman.

You know it's gonna be something unique when all the similar bands on their Metal Storm page sound nothing like one another.

We do hope to hear more from this group

Hey guy, why don't you try getting your thoughts across in one single post instead of posting [basically] the same thing 2-3 times within a 5 minute time span.

Holy shit. This is great! A lot of the time it is more groovy folky prog jams than black metal jams, but that's just dandy. Nice soundtrack to when shit is getting a little tense between Tom Nook and KK Slider on them late Saturday nights in Animal Crossing. Y'all know what I mean?

I'm sure you fuckin' do. >:C

At first i mistakened this to be from an US band of similar name (http://dreadnaughtmusic.bandcamp.com/track/derby-days), that they have been added to Metalstorm archives. Oh well, but this is just as excellent

Love it, love it. It's remarkable how the guitars are panned completely to the left and the keyboards to the right, I don't think I've ever listened to something produced like this or at least I don't remember.
At first it sounded weird but it really works.

I listen to a bunch of that! It's true old production methods used to rely in very exaggerated panning, but I think this one is pretty special. Or maybe it's the shock of finding it again on something contemporary I'll pay more attention next time I listen to KC, Camel or old Genesis.

The acclaim here for this album is well beyond me. I gave it one listen and found it quite unimpressive.

I'm enjoying the album big time, I just read the review on it, but I had no idea that it could be this awesome it might be my top one from 2013 along side of Subrosa, the vocalist is my type, the tone the style, and approach all is what I enjoy so much plus their awesome music. Great stuff.
