btw really digging the basslessness of the upcoming portal:

yeah, not one iota better than the destruction of cultural heritage by isis, dude's a complete loony. ___ on a somewhat lighter note, more bullen death: ABBATOIR!! D:

ladies n gentleman: the human brain edit: for me it was clicker heroes for about half a year...

it's actually the last track on the A side (=bullen* death(=best death btw)). otherwise neat article, 13 minute version (*https://nicholasbullen.com/)

nah, gonna finish new game+ first. well, 1 hour does sound hella tight :O... nice :) OK so turns out my lame ass tactics aren't fit for speedrunning whatsoever XP... barely made the 1.30 on first try... i guess the trick is goin all out kamikaze with overload on bosses n shit, hmm... but new game+ really turned out rather snoozy til the end, only times you couldn't go 100% braindead is when vampires turned up, those sucked ("huehue") alot harder than before. kinda critical discepancy, guess there goes my hope for a rebalancing... pretty much impossible tuning skills down to make endgame more engaging when at the same time you're expected to be able to rush through the whole thing within an hour. oh well.

yeh oldest are awesome, they released some leftovers this year in case ya missed it: https://hathenter.bandcamp.com/album/bacterial-insight the album that turned me from a casual connaisseur to a die hard fanboy was anoint in 2006 and it's probably still my fav in a way. tho other works might reach more extremes (be it harmonic (ixoltion 1/krallice) or abrasive (brainclouds, octis n stuff)) this one just has it all imo and interwoven in such an effortless way, there's nothing like it really. i even got this insanity with drawings n all: https://www.discogs.com/Mick-Barr-Ocrilim-StringsThrough-Chamber-Music-For-Electric-Guitar-Volume-1/release/4837576 coiled malescence is A++, too... yeah, could go on but i guess we got the point.

so very fucking true, he's a rock n roll giant already, idiosyncrasy embodied, the man. btw rock is hell has purging trilogy vinyls on freaking sales for months now already: http://rockishell.bigcartel.com/product/ocrilim-3xlp-surface-mail this is some of his strongest work to date (from 07) and some of the best musics you'll ever hear: https://ocrilim.bandcamp.com/album/ixoltion https://ocrilim.bandcamp.com/album/sacreth https://ocrilim.bandcamp.com/album/annothrith-hymns and the package looks absolutely stunning! highly recommended, shit's limited to 200 copies... can't believe there's not even such a small number of enlightened global u-mans to give em a home :(

Yeah, same tour then! At that time I played in Noplacetohide. https://open.spotify.com/artist/1j9W0zzRFKghw5AII8aTKr yo! i don't use spotify but i checked your stuff on bandcamp. judging by the name i'd have expected some lost & found new school hardcore or something XD... actually i liked the 92 demo best :D violent deathrash with some exceptional vokills, really good shit! with subseqent releases it seems like you became more and more shuggah worship (contradicitons~chaossphere) and on the last one more -core, sadly omitting guitar solos n stuff, which were awesome! first album certainly still has some good stuffs, standouts were sole and yearning (studio version even adding a little blast at the end :)). anyway, even if it's not all for me your musicianship skills are non-debatable, specially your lead guitar player and drummer! (the clean vocals kinda suck tho XP) kudos! edit: oh and what's with the german titles? XD

awesome! i had the pleasure of seeing them 2003 or something in basel with the locust. it was pre-OV non-repetitive set, in-cuh-redible!! must've been cool to share the stage with em, what's your band mang?

i guess this'll never get old:

completely unrelated but geil: and the guitar gurl is called Pansi! <3

no vokill but very maximal:

vocalless... AND MINIMAL!!:

blotted science is kinda djenty and vocalless:

ironically varg (=burzum man) even wrote his own RPG ;)... if you dig minimalsim check darkthrone's trynsilvanian hunger and under a funeral moon, especially the former! every song is 2/3 riffs max and the drums just go "dunn dunn dunn dunn dunn" ad infinitum, legendary shit. heavy mucke like swans = um neurosis / isis / cult of luna that kinda stuff probably (not really my alley, tho i do love "through silver in blood" by neurosis) in terms of "djent" (=meshuggah ripoff musics) there's this band called "animals as leaders" (yeah...), they don't have a singer at all but are actually kinda jazzy/fusion lots of the time. i think they're bearable for what it is, extremely wanky tho. anyway metal without at least some degree of silliness is an oxymoron... just join the legion!! :) (great for working out, too!)

oh and: how the fuck is burzum not cheesy?! XD http://www.darklyrics.com/lyrics/burzum/filosofem.html

Burzum (and Filosofem in particular) was copied by a gazillion bands actually, check out: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depressive_Black_Metal Sortsind, which i posted just a bit earlier, might be considered an example, they're not as heavy / mid tempo tho.

well, that's the point :) (and btw despite being a big influence swans isn't metal really)

nah, gonna finish new game+ first. well, 1 hour does sound hella tight :O... nice :)

i'm on new game+ atm and i think they readjusted energy consumption on that to make it less spammable, able to confirm? on the other hand it's still possible to abuse barriers and supply drop all day long... electra / lancer 24/7 ftw... only got S/S+ so far basically just spraying and praying. also never ever running out of energy thanks to gun fever... sure, abilities are supposed to make your life easier, but we're talking pretty much total trivialization here. imo game needs a thorough balance pass next update... still fucking awesome, happy to be experiencing it anew. ... oh, and lol

https://krallice.bandcamp.com/album/go-be-forgotten title track is an absolute masterpiece, top 5 krallice track so far fo sho! feels!

oh and one more little cirith bummer: no demo hits like last laugh or hype performance unfortunately... but yeah it was long ass set anyway, dudes don't get younger.

OK so time lord / pagan altar deffo were the winners of the weekend. the band sounded powerful as fuck, the new singer was 100% convincing without trying too hard, track selection was pretty much flawless, jones jr. totally owned his guitar... mucho emo! and they announced there gonna be more concerts next year (as pagan altar)! warning... well, the performance was pretty much perfect and everything but surrounded by a beer drunken-battlevest clad-fist pump-singalong-crowd isn't really how this kind of music optimally unfolds itself, who would've thought it XP... theaterstyle seating arrangement would prolly been more appropriate... nah it was great (despite the whole thing probably being not much more than a cash grab... i mean it's not like 40 watt sun wasn't around still) and of course i ended up shouting along, too :P cirith ungol pretty much played all their hits from every album chronologically. while this is cool in regard of variety it was also my main problem with the set: since i like the earlier stuff best this turned out to be somwhat anti-climatic. they even played fucking "edge of a knife" (i wasn't even so optimistic they'd play anthing off frost and fire at all) but as 2nd track already... king of the dead they even played in its entirety iirc (the whole set was more than 2 hours!) also including toccata and fugue from tape with projections commemorating fogle. apart from 100mph (which some people seem to feel was out of place on one foot in hell) they pretty much delivered every single (album-)hit you'd imagine. musically shit was tight and baker's voice downright incredible but apart from that they took some time to get heated up (apart from that young ass bass player danzig lookalike who apparently got them back together, he was in a fanboy poser rage from the get go. couldn't help but feel he seemed somewhat out of place but hey it's cool), especially baker seemed somewhat lost on stage sometimes and even kinda bored despite the impeccable vokill delivery... garven was sloppy af at times and initally hit his cymbals like clits but that's part of the charme, at least he seemed to genuinely enjoy himself. overall it was really cool but just not quite the revelation as pagan altar. didn't really conciously check out most other bands tbh, count raven and lucifer's friend were kinda ok but we preferred wandering the city a bit, it's got some cool castle stuffs and appoximately 49320649613245235891735 churches. another cool thing: i found forté - stranger than fiction green vinyl for a realy bargain at some greek vendor person stand. enormously thread relevant!!: pretty effed up today, had to get to work right away at 6 am, could actually use a weekend from the weekend now :I ... ah hell, well worth it!

apparently it'll be available today :D ... here's the trailer: nice! I've been stuck on the base game for ages. Some fight with constant ninjas dropping in. Been a while since a game has kicked my ass so hard. Might have to revert to normal mode like a loser. shield bash! yeah tbf there's quite some cheesy setups to trivialize the game even on hard. something i hope they'll look into actually.

oviri: "Mice Eating Gold" and "Yarinareth..." have sections in which one guitar gradually increases in tempo while a second guitar gradually decreases in tempo in a manner similar to Conlon Nancarrow's Study No. 21. For instance, "Yarinareth..." opens with a left-panned guitar decelerating from 400 BPM to 100 BPM, while a right-panned guitar accelerates from 100 BPM to 400 BPM. At the midpoint of this process (0:36), the left and right-panned guitars momentarily converge at 200 BPM and a third, centered guitar enters at a stable 200 BPM. The guitars proceed through different configurations of these tempo gradients each time this section recurs in the track, always playing manipulations of the 24-note series 0, 3, 22, 21, 14, 17, 8, 7, 4 19, 18, 5 6, 15, 16, 23, 20, 1, 2 13, 10, 11, 12, 9. Most of the tracks have sections in multiple simultaneous tempos, like the prolation canon in a 4:5:6:7:8 ratio in "The Norms...". "Democritus Laughing" opens with a four-measure riff that accelerates by gaining an extra note each measure in a horizontal 4:5:6:7 ratio, for a total of 22 notes. The 22 pitches played by the opening guitar were generated aleatorically by rolling a 24-sided die; the three other guitars play serial transformations of that pitch material. When the drums enter, the tempo ratio becomes vertical and the four guitars trade tempos in that 4:5:6:7 ratio every time the opening theme recurs. The title "The Norms That Author the Self Render the Self Substitutable" is a paraphrase of a line from Judith Butler's Giving an Account of Oneself. The title "Yarinareth, Yarinareth, Yarinareth" is from Lord Dunsany's Gods of Pegāna.Lyrically and thematically this album is indebted to Ernest Becker's Escape from Evil, Thomas Metzinger's Being No One, Nick Bostrom's Superintelligence, Don DeLillo's End Zone, Joseph Conrad's The Secret Agent, E. M. Cioran's Tears and Saints, and the Erra Epic.
