absolutely fuck yes. best artist in music imo
― imago, Monday, 1 September 2014 12:56 (nine years ago) link
Halfway through the second track, this might actually be better than Vast Chains.
― EveningStar (Sund4r), Monday, 1 September 2014 13:20 (nine years ago) link
omg wait for the third track
― imago, Monday, 1 September 2014 13:29 (nine years ago) link
and dear christ the fifth track, might be the best so far
― imago, Monday, 1 September 2014 13:35 (nine years ago) link
have his vocals gotten more tolerable, or disappeared maybe? I would have loved the last one as an instrumental record.
― Simon H., Monday, 1 September 2014 13:36 (nine years ago) link
Yeah, that's a stunner.

― EveningStar (Sund4r), Monday, 1 September 2014 13:37 (nine years ago) link
his vocals are still there but the music is if anything even more kickass, so he increasingly comes off like a master of despair rather than simply a magnificent sufferer
this closing track is showing all the signs of being......beyond, above

:O
― imago, Monday, 1 September 2014 13:48 (nine years ago) link
I do sometimes feel a bit of a sense that his compositional skills are becoming sophisticated enough that the vocals might feel superfluous at times. I don't mind them the way some people seem to but they're generally the least interesting element. I'm at about 6:45 in "The Grey King" and they're working for me here, though.
― EveningStar (Sund4r), Monday, 1 September 2014 14:00 (nine years ago) link
The Grey King is some monstrous realness. Up there with The Fire of This (which is saying a LOT)

If I could transfer the Hey QT fuckabout discussion to this song I would in a flash. This is...almost disturbingly good
― imago, Tuesday, 16 September 2014 23:15 (nine years ago) link
I'm still processing Vast Chains... never noticed how awesomely hellish & cavernously fucked "The Fire of This" gets in its final half. Dude knows how to close an album.
― Speaking of the inaccessible summit, here's (bernard snowy), Tuesday, 16 September 2014 23:37 (nine years ago) link
yeah I mean, The Fire of This is monstrous, intense, lethal stuff, but this is heightened to the grisliest, most demented panic of mind I think I've ever heard
I actually think the closer of the first part of the 'trilogy', Acedia, is by far the weakest song on all 3 albums! but the two 2014 closers, yeah I mean, fuck
― imago, Tuesday, 16 September 2014 23:40 (nine years ago) link
Ok I downloaded Vast Chains.
Jesus christ. I think this the first use of microtonal scales I've heard that didn't just sound like some muso nerd in-joke to me. The parts where he resorts to straight up power chord chopping for a few seconds are like brief islands of sanity.

srsly ressentiment. srsly. the man himself regards it most highly of the three, as do i. the most exciting/intimidating aspect is that he claims all three albums are primitive in comparison to what he's working on now. gimme that sweet primitive fire tbpfh, i can wait
― pretentious over rated bloody old rubbish (imago), Saturday, 27 September 2014 13:01 (nine years ago) link
So far I'm finding that I still want to play Vast Chains all the time but can't really spin Ressentiment the same way. Maybe it's a matter of time?
― EveningStar (Sund4r), Wednesday, 15 October 2014 00:15 (nine years ago) link
Can get why Ressentiment might be too much - it's one of the most intense albums ever made, I'd wager. You have to be in the right place for it. Vast Chains, while almost equally brilliant, is slightly more introspective, more measured. Ressentiment is vicious
― Ƹ༑Ʒ (imago), Wednesday, 15 October 2014 00:19 (nine years ago) link

"The Fire of This" pretty much shattered my mind into a million glittering shards last night, so I can finally officially say I am fully on-board the Jute Gyte wagon. Holy fuck, man. I've been listening to his stuff fairly regularly for almost a year now, but it didn't really click until last night for some reason. Now I need to hear it all.
― Bloody Pelt Found Near the Scene of the Crime (Skrot Montague), Wednesday, 15 October 2014 13:40 (nine years ago) link
I don't know if this is Branca-esque at all, sometimes it sounds like mid-80s Greg Ginn playing black metal, sometimes it sounds like Jute Gyte without the mictrotonality...

also lol ok imma hear those now
ambergris is sick
― imago, Friday, 7 November 2014 23:38 (nine years ago) link
This Morko record is great. Sounds like a black metal This Heat. Admittedly I'm predisposed to love anything that sounds like "insert genre" This Heat. Also - Did it really come out in 2008? Kind of amazed it's never crossed my path.
― Oblique Strategies, Friday, 7 November 2014 23:56 (nine years ago) link
It did! I think they did a really limited run of physical copies - I actually got it because they saw a review I wrote of their second album and emailed me and offered a copy. Their newer one (long Finnish title, also on their bandcamp) is pretty weird too but different in style - IV almost seemed like an extended black metal Fall of Saigon, to continue the This Heat comparison.
Glad you guys liked Ambergris, too - as soon as I heard it I thought of this thread!
― Brocktoon Tanuki (GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ), Saturday, 8 November 2014 00:10 (nine years ago) link
Damn. I need to track down a physical copy. I also need to book more Finnish shows for my bands so I have an excuse to go there and beg Morko to play the show.

I'm loving this track, it's an American 1-man project that sounds a bit like DSO played double speed with hints of Mick Barr-ish avant-shred. There's bits that sounds rather like Jute Gyte too. But it's probably at least as twice as complex as anything I've just mentioned.
I've never heard anything quite like this, though.
The album's out this month on The Flenser, who continue to be one of the best labels out there atm
― ultros ultros-ghali, Thursday, 12 February 2015 21:07 (nine years ago) link
Yeah, that's great.
