Having listened to this album just the once, all I can say is you lot can suck my dick: this is ****ing excellent! I feared when I read the opinions of the majority here, but your opinion is donkey balls. I love the textures, the moods, the music, the atmosphere: even the singing is quite minimal and if I listen to it as - as Jansz suggested some time ago - another instrument I can certainly appreciate it on that level.
I also have developed a liking for one man bands - Panopticon, When Bitter Spring Sleeps, Mondo - that kind of thing, and while generally they tend to be more in the black metal side of things than death metal, and I'm not quite sure where this falls (seems there's even some pagan metal in there, and a bit of prog metal too) I really appreciate this. I love love love his version of "The Sky Moves Sideways." I'm not aware of any metal band ever covering a prog song before, but if they did I feel sure they would rip the piss out of it. Brendan doesn't - then he does. Singing it in a "normal" voice, just to show he can, and then dropping into the Cookie Monster vibe, works brilliantly. Had he chosen something like "Watcher of the Skies" I'd be like what? But the Porcupine Tree standard is just forlorn enough, just brittle, bleak and bitter enough for this to work brilliantly. If I have to choose favourites (other than "TSMS") then "Invocat" and "Altered", but there was nothing here I didn't like, and a lot I loved. http://www.trollheart.com/cleaver5.jpg |

Unlikely ally. Have you heard Ulcerate? Similar guitar atmospheres.

Convulsing - Errata (2016)
I thought this was pretty great—drenched in mood and reminiscent of Abyssal in some ways. It was really only sort of death metal, and that was one of its biggest strengths. I loved the frequent drone doom elements, as well as the goth/postpunk elements, and I dug the clean vocals on the Porcupine Tree cover. 8/10 |

Tomb Mold - Primordial Malignity
Well, despite the fact that Qwerty said he wasn't interested in this thread, he ironically chose by far my favorite death metal album so far in this thread. OSDM with some clear Swe-death influences, lots of bass, and atmosphere that comes mostly from the riffs. 5/10 |
Tomb Mold - Primordial Malignity
First real, honest-to-Baphomet death metal album we've had in this thread. There's some pretty good hard rocking death 'n roll type stuff going on here. Good riffs. Nice straight-ahead rocking. On the downside, there isn't anything especially new or exciting happening here. On the upside, what they do, they do very well. 7/10 |
Tomb Mold - Primordial Whatever
Yeah, does nothing for me. Bored to death (no pun intended) by the tenth minute. Just a mess, to me. Hate the vocals and this time I can't even consider them an instrument; they're just a roaring, growling annoyance and the music itself seems pretty boring and plodding to me. Yeah, bring the hate, what the **** do I care. This scores nothing with me. http://www.trollheart.com/cleaver1.jpg |

So serious yeesh.

That's it? Trollheart is done after one album he doesn't like? Two albums he liked can't outweigh the one he didn't?
|
Wutta loser.

Well he can't leave without picking an album.

If that Tomb Mold thing is considered a "real DM album" then that tells me that it's unlikely I'll get into DM, and frankly I've too much on my plate to be wasting time listening to albums I'm gonna hate. I'm sorry; I wanted to support Batty but this really just does not seem to be for me. I don't give a **** if you call me a pussy or a loser, I am a busy pussy and a busy loser, so up yours. :)
