The new album is amazing, easily one of the best albums to come out all year. Almost devoid of anything black metal at all besides the vocals, those who get to hear will be blown away.

It's a long time I've heard these guys the last time. Should give them a listen again, liked it back then.

"streets with teets" is soo awesome

I apologize if this is already common knowledge but this band also has an EP released under the name "Frail" that you should definitely track down because it is awesome. Does anyone know if "Alright is exactly what it isn't" is available in CD or download formats? I would love to get a copy of this but alas I do not have a record player. I understand the appeal of releasing stuff on old formats but I really wish bands would make an effort to at least offer downloads or something modern.

I think it's a clever way to stop the whole downloading thing for a certain amount of time. As someone who's heard the record, and I do have it in mp3 form, it is amazing, but not black metal in almost any way. There are some vocals that are screamed, but that's about it. It's a post-rock/post-punk record that'll definitely be worth it when you hear it.

PS. I will not upload the damn thing.
