Le Secret is what I always wanted 'blackgaze' to be and what it so rarely turned out to be.

I'm listening to that other Alcest album with the green cover and oh wow, why don't I know this? This is everything I like!

I figured Carcass for a #1 contender. Maybe it's in that awkward stage where the hype is too recent.

I've never got on with Alcest and the more, well, overtly emotional black metal stuff. I prefer the emotion to be buried, or anterior, almost incidental - not so proscriptive. I don't know.Plus it reminds me of seeing Anathema and My Dying Bride back in the early 90s. Yes, I am old.
― Sunn O))) Brother Where Art Thou? (Chinaski), Thursday, 15 September 2016 18:47 (seven years ago) link
Anathema and My Dying Bride were terrible though
― Cosmic Slop, Thursday, 15 September 2016 18:47 (seven years ago) link
I still quite like Serenades, but yeah.

I am one of those annoying people who disregarded Ghost for years then finally got into them bigtime in the last few months. None of their albums made my ballot but Meliora has some amazing songs on it. Sometimes they remind me of Club Ninja era BOC.
(and the YT clip of them performing 3 songs at Amoeba is one of my favorite things ever)
I think their new EP is gonna have a Eurythmics cover (assuming that's what "Missionary Man" is).

Re: Brad. Oh god, we still have a few albums from them, don't we?
Exhibit A in the argument of imago and Brad being the same.
― Drugs A. Money, Thursday, 15 September 2016 18:53 (seven years ago) link
I am not interested in non-Japanese Ghost in the slightest, but am amused that a band can build a huge following by copping late BOC
― Drugs A. Money, Thursday, 15 September 2016 18:55 (seven years ago) link
i doubt anathema or mdb will place at all? were they even nominated?
― who is extremely unqualified to review this pop album (BradNelson), Thursday, 15 September 2016 18:55 (seven years ago) link
anyway serenades and silent enigma are incredible gothy doom albums, beyond me why y'all don't fuck with them

I found a good piece of writing relating to Ghost the other day, by a Canadian indigenous activist/metalhead. I think this is quality metal writing.
