omik11303 Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 (edited) In other news, The Shaking Sensations quietly dropped another solid new track a few weeks ago. Probably my most anticipated instrumental release late in the year. Proof that meat-and-potatoes post-rock can still be done well. Also, for any post-metal fans in here the new Cranial album seems like it’s gonna be huge. First track is so dense, so riff-heavy. I love it. http://thesludgelord.bandcamp.com/album/alternate-endings Edited August 13, 2019 by omik11303 pemulis and KyleHL 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek™ Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Godspeed’s back on the menu, my guys. Just got back from catching them workshop at least 2 new tracks. One of the songs is basically Storm 2.0 and it’s nothing short of glorious. I’m extremely pleased with both. The Vool 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got audio!!! The first song, Glacier, is a moody stomp that is pretty enjoyable. However, Derek seems to be referring to "Cliff" which is a longer cut but features a return to Godspeed playing major key stuff. It's pretty good. It takes a while to get itself going, and has some fat to be trimmed IMO but it's very nice to hear Godspeed playing some major key music again.

I’m still going at least Saturday (Friday could be tough but convince me to get there and I’ll make it happen). Anyways. Post casual here. Going to the show.

Friday has Au Revoir, Shy Low, PRAY FOR SOUND and Ranges. You need to fucking see those bands. Shy, Low and Au Revoir are some of the heaviest and moodiest post-whatever bands, and are absolutely amazing. Pray For Sound may just be the most upbeat post-rock band ever, and are completely FUN. Ranges is moody and powerful and heavy and fairly stereotypical, but done incredibly well. To miss those 4 bands is a big mistake. Shy, Low is essentially the main reason I'm flying out there KyleHL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrewest Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 (edited) This new PSOTY fucking SLAYS. It’s like Fragments but cranked to 11. I’m into the vocals a lot, but they don’t dominate the album. There are a couple instrumemtals & long periods in the songs with no vocals, so if you don’t dig them, maybe they’re sparse enough to not hurt the album for you. As a whole I will say the songs are a bit one dimensional & at least the first time through can be hard to separate from each other, but it’s just so LOUD & dense I don’t really mind. The first real tempo change doesn’t hit until a couple minutes into the 3rd track, but it hits right before things get stale imo. My other minor gripe is that there isn’t a lot of depth to the drum beats, but this album is definitely about the nuclear guitars & bass. Which btw, definitely some moments of Tool-esque bass in here. A nice element especially after getting back into Tool casually lately. Listen to this one cranked as loud as you can. I wasn’t gonna splurge on vinyl but I may have to change that. ”Queen of Hades” is my early favorite. That’s when that Tool bass really kicks in & then it’s filled in with like shoegaze-post-metal.
