Auspicium/Earthenwomb - Split

noreply@blogger.com (Last Sun's Light) — Tue, 03 Apr 2012 22:32:00 +0000

Two bands, two tracks each, two covers total. I went in a different direction than usual with Auspicium, you'll either hate it or hate it more. One new track and a cover of The Cure. Earthenwomb gives us a new noise based track, as well as a My Bloody Valentine cover.

Avulse - We Are All Code

noreply@blogger.com (Last Sun's Light) — Wed, 28 Mar 2012 03:11:00 +0000

Third Avulse full length. Closer to I Am The Liquor than that was to Granted but Grace, We Are All Code takes black metal, d beat, and punk and mixes them to form a new whole. Whereas IATL was nihilistic and very abrupt on the state of a life, WAAC is rather themed by the slipping away of the norm, and the scrambling and grasping to retain some sense of sanity. Hard sci-fi fans will note the M. John Harrison reference.

Vaniardur - Silmarillion

noreply@blogger.com (Last Sun's Light) — Fri, 23 Mar 2012 01:00:00 +0000

I posted Vaniardur's space themed Rhea Before Titan a little while back. I liked the spacy-dark ambient-cum-instrumental black metal that it presented. Now Vaniardur is taking on Tolkien. At best, this sounds like a interlude on a symphonic LotR black metal band. At worst, it sounds like Rakoth. The synth guitars are the icing on the weird ass cake. Now, just because I don't like this release does it mean that I don't appreciate Vaniardur. Their talent is apparent, and they have a great ear for melody. I just think in the context, I appreciate less organic music when it deals with a less organic medium like space. I've just heard this record before many times, some worse, some better.

Prison of Mirrors - Manning the Galleys

noreply@blogger.com (Last Sun's Light) — Fri, 23 Mar 2012 00:39:00 +0000

First thing, I see this cover with the text in what appears to be the Harry Potter font. Bad feeling right away. Fortunately, the music doesn't remind me of teenaged wizards. Prison of Mirrors plays a variation on the atmospheric black metal/post black (not blackgaze) that every one and their grim and frostbitten grandmother seems to be playing today. The things that set them apart are their extremely well crafted songs, their intensity, and not treating the black metal parts of their songs as afterthoughts. I enjoy this. You might, you might not. Do what thou wilt...

Vuota - Eroguro Neurosis

noreply@blogger.com (Last Sun's Light) — Tue, 20 Mar 2012 16:16:00 +0000

As opposed to the Cityscape Drawn in Black Ink EP I just posted. I am damn sure this is not a joke. Vuota also blends post punk with black metal but with a steadier hand and much more terrifying results. Drop a whole shit load of LSD and listen to this, then record your reaction. I need samples for the next WF record. This record is not your usual BM beast so if you want bullet belts stay away.

Cityscape Drawn in Black Ink - Line 0 EP

noreply@blogger.com (Last Sun's Light) — Tue, 20 Mar 2012 15:56:00 +0000

Where the fuck did the term "depressive rock" come from? And why the fuck does it refer to bands like Lifelover and CDiBI, who are DSBM/post punk combined for the most part, and not to bands that are depressive rock n' roll like Band of Horses, Carissa's Wierd, or Sinners and Saints? I just don't know. I've seen the name Cityscape thrown around very recently and have seen songs from his first EP get quite a few plays on last.fm and youtube. That first EP was more directly black metal, almost overwhemingly DSBM. This new EP is a different beast. He has talent, that's apparent. However, the Line 0 EP seems like someone tried to marry suicidal black metal and post punk, much like lifelover was able to, but much more harsh and jarring. I'm not 100% convinced this isn't a huge Kaufmaneque joke, the last track is their version of elevator muzak (entitled Hellevator) and their is a section in the third track with a person saying "Fuck youuu" in a childlike inflection which caused me to spit out my drink and laugh my ass off. Joke or not, at least the first track is good for what it is.

Vox Clamantis - A Distant Blur

noreply@blogger.com (Last Sun's Light) — Tue, 20 Mar 2012 15:40:00 +0000

Vox Clamantis are an atmospheric black metal band. The atmosphere they are trying to present to us however is being stuck in the middle of a swarm of killer bees. You are really stoned and the bees are stoned too. So it sounds like a constant warbling buzzing. If you couldn't follow me in that rambling shit, let me break it down for you. I love the songwriting that Vox Clam is putting forth here (it actually reminds me a little of Lurker of Chalice), but this record has the worst high end I have ever heard. Its like they high shelfed everything but the drums at an extra 10dB, threw a reverb on it, a very fast chorus onto that, and then another reverb. They even suggest using the bass boost when listening to it. Again, this is far from a bad record, just a bad sounding one. I wanna see what Vox Clam can do with a solid low end and no oscillation above 10kHz.

Aerugo - Demo MMXII

noreply@blogger.com (Last Sun's Light) — Tue, 20 Mar 2012 15:29:00 +0000

The first demo of a brand new band. Of themselves, Aerugo says,
"Split between New York (E – all instruments) and Indiana (X – vocals), Aerugo are a mixed breed of black metal and doom with some ambient influence. Formed in 2012, this is their first demo.Split between New York (E – all instruments) and Indiana (X – vocals), Aerugo are a mixed breed of black metal and doom with some ambient influence.

I'd have to say they are a very raw brand of doomy black metal, and they need more bass in the mix. The second track here is the stronger of the two. These guys just need to hone their craft a little bit more and I can see them putting out some really interesting stuff soon.

Vaniardur - Rhea Before Titan

noreply@blogger.com (Last Sun's Light) — Mon, 19 Mar 2012 02:02:00 +0000

I have a lot of your submissions backed up guys, and I'm gonna try to get to them soon. I'm starting with this project, Vaniardur. My interest was piqued when I read the title. The music is pretty much exactly what I thought it would be: layers of keyboards over instrumental black metal. Usually I hate keyboard black metal, but the mixing of dark ambient and/or space themes always gets me. This music goes perfectly with the state of mind I've been in recently. If you enjoy space themed DA like Undiscovered Moons of Saturn or SFE, you'll probably enjoy this.

New slab of black metal-cum-extra doomy death metal via Black Chalice. The songs are on a whole longer than Years of Flame, with more riffing for stoned headbanging, and enough dark melody and decaying atmosphere to satiate the black metal palate.

Satanas Tedeum

noreply@blogger.com (Flesh Monolith) — Sat, 07 Jan 2012 22:14:00 +0000

I picked this up when I was in Greece and was 14 or so. I believe it to be a bootleg of their Passage to Arcturo demo with Satanas Tedeum mixed in as well as some live tracks. No legal info is on the thing and unfortunately I have it somewhere in storage, so I can't give you guys a picture (googling it doesn't show the copy I have).

Whatever it is it's interesting insight as to the beginning of Greece's most well known black metal band.
