I write weekly posts that have blurbs about 9 track each week. I have grown to dislike long-form review writing, mostly because I'm not sure I can do that sort of thing. But, would people actually be interesting in a full review format (once in a while) or are the blurbs ok?
Sunn Amps have gone full pyramid scheme and are deleting negative comments on their Instagram. I've said it multiple times on their post and I'll say it here: This is fucking stupid.
@TheStanitarium First off, yes. That said, I think the unleashing of THE RIFF at 6:33 is under-appreciated, both just as one of the great riffs of all time and the patient pageantry of it. For everything caveman about Sabbath, waiting to the end to unveil that - such class.
It's a bit of a worry how great the music slated for 2024 is shaping up to be. The latest shining gem in that pile is the beauteous EP from sister acts @Forlesen and @LotusThief out Jan. via I Voidhanger. Check out the beautiful teaser/video here. Magic.

@ronofjosenthal You may already be familiar with it since IO premiered a track, but I think this is excellent. To me it almost feels like if Urfaust played folk-infused funeral doom and had a female vocalist.

// 2023 AOTY LIST //
My lists are weird and weirdly personal. This year's is that, but more. Apologies if you're not that into it, commiserations if you are. Many thanks to all the bands that ruined my life to make my life better.
