You should get Dopesmoker. Much better; uncut.

This is our first attempt at recording what so ever and it was rife with technical errors that left me kinda phased. Personally I think we could have done alot better and are a much better live band but that's my opinion filled with self degradation so I'd love to hear the good and bad (I'm expecting a lot of the latter). Feel free to be as blatant as you want, I don't like it much so it won't hurt to hear you guys say anything.
The Intro does not receive the Meta seal of approval. I'm not sure what you're going for here.
Loki is a pretty rad song. Some of the previous issues are still there, but I'm enjoying the good bass presence. The song flows well and it has its heavy moments.
Follow the Deceiver has a nice vibe, kind of a thrashy old Death feel. Again, production needs work, but the song is quite headbang worthy.
you're totally Fro, aren't you? (you don't have to divulge your secret identity, but I know that's you)

Songs are neat, better than what I expected considering how glum you seemed.
This exactly.

Edit: Actually, this is a compelling reason to stop being lazy as fuck and get the Myspace info and write something that makes slightly more sense
Edit the second: Something I forgot to mention, we speed our songs up a fair amount when we play live, around 20-30 bpm more on Loki and March of Odin
Don't do this. If you're going for one gimmick-y thing, stick with it as much as possible (imo).

1) everything that makes a rock opera concept album fun.
2) everything that makes a Judas Priest album fun (i.e....the fucking metal).
What remains is a slog-fest of epic boredom, and another in a long line of mediocre albums dating back to Painkiller. In fact, the only songs that are half decent are the title track, which contains a little Painkiller self-plagiarism and a nice solo bridge, and "Visions" which sounds, you guessed it, like another tune from the past.
Wtb another album with comparable quality to Painkiller, without using too many of the same riffs. Kthxbye.
Must purge this obscenity with another spin of the latest Testament album, which serves as a shining example of how to REALLY re-capture the glory.
The new Venom album isn't that bad, it still sounds like Venom to me: just the simpler, thrash Venom that has existed on EVERY Venom album since the first few.
Also, for those interested, new Graveland EP, new Destinity and Kataplexia albums.

I dug it. I'll echo the statment about working on the recording a little better next time. I sent you guys a friend request from the band I play in. Hope you guys get a chance to check it out as well.

New album delayed.

I like it, but it's kinda doomy. Some of the tracks off their last album were similar. Dig it. Better than that Dextronaut shit they released last year to make up for the delay and the demos.
Part of a five-hour set Om played at the Uganda bar in Jerusalem.
Last release with Hakius.

Describe the feeling you experienced as the first Arghoslent riff washed over you.
oh yeah, somebody was asking about new post-metal. I'm really digging A Storm of Light's new album And We Wept the Black Ocean Within. The vocals are interesting, weary dirges - definitely not the usual uncaptivating bark of the genre. Some of the songs even wander towards a bit of a funeral doom feel. I guess the main bloke behind this project is/was involved with Neurosis and Red Sparowes, but I'm not sure to what extent.
Another cracking new album is Angst Skvadron's Flukt, a trippy black metal expedition into space by the Urgehal darlings.

Superior.

Yeah. I'm not buying that album, though.
Too bad he dropped out of Shrinebuilder as well. Guess something major happened. :-/
Even more depressing once I remembered that OM was practically Sleep, in terms of progression of sound (It's almost Dopesmoker without the guitar) and personnel.
Yeah. I wish I knew what happened. Supposedly Emil Amos is a pretty talented drummer, so that's kind of encouraging.
Also you probably couldn't buy it unless you went ebay hunting.
It's still floatin around.
I also have some awesome connections.
Another dude from Ventura here?
The hell took you so long?
edit: also Scartediket rules
I have a bit of a habit of just ignoring stuff mentioned in here that isn't mentioned at least 2 or 3 times. Terrible, I know.

LOL
God this album rocks.
SOME THANG!!! IS GOIN RONG ROUND HERE!!!
\m/
Eh. I usually only bother with recommendations from people that know me really well.
As ridiculous as this is, I'm fairly sure Arghoslent was mentioned more than 2 or 3 times.
