Speaking of which, Oranssi Pazuzu posted about an album due out Feb 26 on Svart and 20 Buck Spin.
"Värähtelijä is continuing where we left off with Valonielu. But it plunges deeper into the pitch black hypnosis, combines progressive song structures to more free and flowing parts. At the same time, it’s the heaviest and the most atmospheric album we`ve done so far. The fusion between different ends of spectrum reveals new realities we`ve never discovered before. We really wanted this album to go to new places and to be the crossover album of genres we always wanted to do. To further boost the idea, the album was done with Julius Mauranen who had previously done lots of Finnish shoegaze and indie pop albums. I think it’s safe to say that this is by far the heaviest stuff he has done and for us, working with a guy like him stretched our sound to way more dynamic and trippy horizons."

Amazon reviews of the mp3 version say the sound quality/production is awful

People are wrong about the clipping. I showed some examples upthread. However, there is distortion on some tracks more than others, and even after Dave Fridmann toned down his signature sound, people seem to be sick of it. The band may regret using him, and DF will probably continue to not give a flyin f..k.

I've been listening to it on my iPod and I hear distortion but not clipping, and it's not an egregiously loud album.

haha yeah i was sorta thrown off by the clipping comments but i never trust my own ears with this stuff. the only album it ever hurt for me to listen to was that last deftones record
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Monday, 21 December 2015 14:50 (eight years ago) link
Well, maybe that'll teach you not to listen to Deftones albums.
― the top man in the language department (誤訳侮辱), Monday, 21 December 2015 15:27 (eight years ago) link
lol they're like my favorite band
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Monday, 21 December 2015 15:29 (eight years ago) link
I loved them from Around the Fur through Saturday Night Wrist but haven't found anything they've done since that holds my interest.

that's weird, i'd argue they're even better now

they're such cunts tho
― roughest.contoured.silks (imago), Monday, 21 December 2015 20:59 (eight years ago) link
heh, they're all on our list except for Paradise Lost I think?
xpo I don't know I just saw it on Profound Lore's twitter, I assumed it was from the latest issue of Kerrang
― moans and feedback (Dinsdale), Monday, 21 December 2015 21:00 (eight years ago) link
oh wait we didn't have Tribulation iirc
imago why the hate for pitchforks metal coverage? I think the metal writers they have are very good
― Ted Nü-Djent (Cosmic Slop), Monday, 21 December 2015 21:01 (eight years ago) link
Tribulation was #19 in ours
― Ted Nü-Djent (Cosmic Slop), Monday, 21 December 2015 21:02 (eight years ago) link
also I was scrolling quickly through the list and saw a huge ad with Drake's face on it around the middle of the list, which had me super confused for a moment
― moans and feedback (Dinsdale), Monday, 21 December 2015 21:02 (eight years ago) link
it's more what they exclude
― roughest.contoured.silks (imago), Monday, 21 December 2015 21:02 (eight years ago) link
xp that's how much I was paying attention
but really their monolithic claim to universality and trendmaking, it's sickening, probably projecting idk
― roughest.contoured.silks (imago), Monday, 21 December 2015 21:03 (eight years ago) link
think we need to keep the list on the page

i dont actually read pitchfork unless someone links to a review on facebook, but when looking for blurbs for the poll i came across a lot of reviews and I thought they were good reviews.
I dont think jonviachi posts here now but I do feel his frustration of no new best music tho (except for deafheaven)
They could even call it New Best Metal. Missing a trick I say!

Best Nu-Metal

there's no real "they" with that metal list. that's just brandon's list of his own favorite records

I don't know why I didn't spend more time with the Panopticon. It's really good.

Not sure how I missed both Lost Soul and Cradle of Filth making the list. An earlier comment I made was in light of that. Yet there they are at 113 and 105, now that I'm going over the results another time. I can rest easy now.
― Devilock, Tuesday, 22 December 2015 23:12 (eight years ago) link
they missed the top 103 rollout though

just a few hot takes.
Zombi Zombi can no longer be comfortable in being one of a very few acts doing what they do. They need to answer to recent newcomers to the 70's & 80s italo-prog film score 'thing' like Perturbator and Dance with the Dead, and even Goblin themselves have returned. They fail to measure up to the new kids. This album is too slow, and it has no teeth. Where's the grit, the sense of the ominous or dreadful? There's nothing in the music that conjures up fleeing from hordes of zombies, or outracing a death car or escaping from any sort of cannibal holocaust. Also, if I want to hear Neil Pert drumming -- Rush is still touring and making albums.
Iron MaidenA few people like taking the piss out of the last song about zeppelin pirates or whatever the hell its about, but I thought it was amazing and some of the best prog-rock to come out in ages.
Leviathan's music is terrible and has always terrible. Not surprised (at the time, or still) it comes from a rapist/attempted murderer. A shame this guy hasn't been cast into outer darkness of shame or righteously executed. More evidence that the Portland metal scene is the morally void heroin den I thought it was. Clean up your dogshit, Portland -- ffs, run this guy outta town.
The whole top 20 is amazing, minus its starter High on Fire, which has always been a dud for me even though I am a fan of Matt Pike in general.

is Leviathan from/in Portland? i didn't think so.
― alpine static, Wednesday, 23 December 2015 05:56 (eight years ago) link
He moved to Oregon recently, right?
― Siegbran, Wednesday, 23 December 2015 08:38 (eight years ago) link
maybe! would just be the first I'd heard of it. which of course doesn't mean it ain't true.

Have you ever heard of the term "libel"? Have you ever heard of the concept of "due process"? Can you point me to a shred of credible evidence to back up your claim that Wrest is a "rapist/attempted murderer"? (No, you can't.)
If you don't like his music or personality, that is your right, and feel free to blab about it all day. But it doesn't give you an excuse to make shit up about him and libel him (or anybody) in public.

haha yeah that definitely counts as libel lol
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Monday, 28 December 2015 15:08 (eight years ago) link
I'm not saying there's a snowball's chance in hell that anyone would attempt to charge Frobisher for libel, but posts on message boards can indeed be admitted to libel trials if necessary. And my larger point is that it's ignorant to make stuff up about people and then post this ignorance on the internet. It's part of what makes the internet such a pain in the ass to visit some days, and it isn't usually the type of behavior that is accepted on ILM (which is why I like ILM a lot compared to some of the other hideous message boards out there). I guess maybe I just need to stay off message boards for a while. Peace.

Oh yeah, and Frobisher is a rapist/attempted murderer. (How do you like it, buddy?)
