Do they sex?

[RobertsTheCoolest]

I've been putting together my own EP but I have absolutely no friends or people i know that are into black metal. I want to post some clips here but I'm thinking you guys will shit all over it and then i'll be covered in shit and not want to come back/be too discouraged to continue on.

ed1t: but for real plz keep this thread alive guise

SVARTIDAUDI - Flesh Cathedral

Four songs and over 40 minutes of terror. “Flesh Cathedral” presents a wide variety of rhythms and powerful riffage which shall entertain even the most demanding listener. Even though I fucking hate when every band which slightly experiments with disharmony is automatically compared to Deathspell Omega, this I time I cannot help myself. On the other hand if it makes you listen to the album, so be it. So if generalize “Flesh Cathedral” unreasonably, I will come to a conclusion that this album sounds like a slowed down version of “Fas ite maledicti in ignem Aeternum” played by mortals on mushrooms.

But while the music of aforementioned Deathspell Omega is quite hurry-scurry, Svartidaudi let their riffs breath. They give them enough space to develop and gain strength so they can get under your skin. “Flesh Cathedral” does not try hard to sound aggresive but the energy emanating from the music is unbelievable. Sometimes I feel like I want to scream because of the immensity of music. And to be honest It has been a long since I felt such an ecstasy when I dedicated first few hours to the “Flesh Cathedral”. The third or fourth listen of “Sterile Seeds” just brought me to my knees and left me devastated yet utterly fulfilled. And one more thing which might vouch for the quality of this album. When “Flesh Cathedral” ends I don’t know what to play next since I’m afraid that every other album will bore me.

The main aspect of this beast is a “mania” which cuts through the every second of the album. “Flesh Cathedral” is not such an “unearthly” album as it may seem yet the dread surrounding the music makes it special. And I am sure that Svartidaudi haven’t fulfilled their potential yet. “Flesh Cathedral” has shown really interesting and quite original sounding and I really hope that these Icelanders won’t stop at nothing so the next recordings will be truly nightmare put to music.

So to conclude it. Svartidaudi created great and addictive album. There is still place for improvement but I am sure that this recording will grasp your attention and both, you and me, will eagerly await the next opus. But to be honest there’s no hurry since for now I cannot get enough of this album!

I need this in my life soon!

I know it's been out for a bit, but the new Enthroned album seems to have gone under the radar. I haven't heard the whole thing yet, but so far it seems better than their last album.

New Flagellant will be pretttttty good trust me.


Also, new Marduk starts of REAL weak (for example Souls for Belial could have been on the boring shitfest that was Wormwood - even the fucking lyrics had repeats all over, fvkk ovv) but the album's 2nd half is KILLLLLLLLER

The vocalist for Flagellant sounds exactly like the guy from Ascension, the music bears a mild resemblance too.

Subvertio Deus – Psalms Of Perdition

[Iain Avstin]

Always liked this band. Nothing special, but solid.

[open face surgery]

Nice call with Subvertio Deus. Savage.

France who? Something strange is happening in Iceland and the result is a flood of great BM bands lately.

[open face surgery]

Wormlust have been around for a while. Great split with Haud Mundus a few years ago. Coincidently, Wann who is half of Haud Mundus and also behind Rebirth of Nefast is now living in Iceland. Both incredible black metal bands. Rumours of a RoN album this year.

[Nökkvi]

You guys should listen to Rebirth's first demo, it's amazing.

[modern death]

Jammed that split at my buddy's house a few months back, really good stuff. He's releasing Wormlust's something or another soon.

[(((OdiumNostrum]

Yea, I kinda expressed myself incorrectly...since a year ago Ive never heard of any Iceland black/death metal band but in the past couple of months Ive been discovering them constantly...from Svartidaudi and Gone Postal of course, to Wormlust and Vansköpun. But I am not surprised, because Icelanders have always created amazing music.

God I love this tune
