Amesoeurs- Amesoeurs

this is quite like Alcest, it even has Neige in its ranks. the difference here is that Amesoeurs has a lass in it. with lassy lass vocals. and no shrieking. its really good. you should try it. tr00 kvlt metulz heads like myself just LOVE to call this hipster black metal ( i mean come on girlz are gross guyz AND WHERE THE HELL IS THE CORPSEPAINT DAMMIT). so yeah its kind of the stuff that those dirty hipsters would do to be ironic one weekend and be like "hey guys lets make some black metal and record it out in the forest so it has that artsy fartsy nature worship feel to it. and this isnt dedicated to satan at all. this is dedicated to ourselves because we are our own gods"

just because im making fun of it doesnt mean that its not good. im just an elitist prick sometimes :)
ps this really is good GET IT FOR GOD'S SAKE

HIPSTER WANKERY

Alcest- Écailles de Lune

so you thought Souvenirs d'un Autre Monde was good, eh? well listen to this. this is better. this tears your soul open and eats the insides. this will make you fall to your knees twice as hard as Souvenirs d'un Autre Monde did. mostly because the bit of harsh vocals just showcase the agony and sadness that Neige has in his heart. between this and Souvenirs d'un Autre Monde i havent listened to much else. Last.fm says that ive listened to this album 90 times just this week. so yeah.
it's amazing.


Download :')

Alcest- Souvenirs d'un Autre Monde

this album is amazing. black metal and shoegaze? much less Depressive/Suicidal Black Metal with Shoegaze? with clean vocals and no shrieking whatsoever on the whole album? is this even possible?!

yes. yes it is. this album brought me to tears with its beauty, and almost single-handedly got me through breaking up with my girlfriend. this album should be played whenever you feel sad just so you realise that youre not nearly as down as the bloke who wrote it. get this album. get it and it will restore you. it will bring peace to your mind and confirm that everything is quite alright.

ps my mixtape is in the works as soon as i remember what i did with my power cord ^____^

get it

Krallice- Dimensional Bleedthrough

i havent posted anything in a while because i havent come across anything that is effin awesome that would be suitable for this blog

until now


behold: progressive black metal. if you can ignore the shrieks and wailing THIS ALBUM DESTROYS. i personally like the shrieks and wailings since it makes the lyrics more emotionally charged and more human but thats just me!

check it out

lemme know if that works or not since i got my copy from a disc

Advaita: Grounded in Space

Ok, so this is probably the trippiest new band i've heard since... well... the last trippy band i heard. No, but seriously, Advaita are a New Delhi based band who use lots and lots of ethnic Indian instrumentation (e.g sitar, tambura, tabla, indian chant etc) and this is basically the chillest psychedelia band to come along since the Grateful Dead if you ask me.

psychotropic indian space rock!

Jean Michel Jarre: Oxygene

Ok, here's a rare gem of the 70's pioneer-ness. This can easily be called the first truly electronic album in history, released 1976, it's mainly psychedelic little compositions made entirely using synthesizers. You might have heard "Part IV" from before, it's a pretty catchy melody.
Anyways I felt the need to post this because albums like this cannot be forgotten. This is the grandfather of all techno, trance, electronica etc. that is today, and as is common in most such cases, this is better than most of the genres and artists it spawned.

Bongzilla- Stash

i havent even listened to this yet and i already know its gonna be ace.

In the Aeroplane Over the Sea

Okay, if you haven't heard this album, you need to download it and listen to it like now. I know that we say that on this blog a lot, but i REALLY mean it with this album. This may be my all-time favorite album. You need to stick with it though, because it's not the most accessible album, but trust me; after a few listens and some time, this album will truly become ingrained into your psyche. It's got so many layers of meaning that I have still yet to reach, and each listen makes me fall in love with it yet again. It's truly genius.

Check it Out

Them Crooked Vultures

Ok, if you haven't heard this... you fail. This is the best classic rock album to be released since "Rated R" by QOTSA in 2000, and that's not just opinion, it's FACT. This album kicks some SERIOUS FUCKING ASS.
