Cynick in Riksgränsen was minus 3 like 2 days ago, and mountain areas can come snow. Inside of countries like Arjeplog, Amarnäs can have wet snow. Last week we had 23,today it's 7 and windy.
We had a holiday day on Monday, and I booked today off as well. So nice having an extra long weekend. I wish I didn’t have to work. Maybe I’ll find a sugar daddy.
Oh snap! I'll already congratulate Matt on making a follow-up! "Black, sludge, thrash"? Sounds like an excellent combo waiting to happen!
Cheers guys, hope you both enjoy it! First single is out on Wednesday so you'll get a taste of it soon
Genres have been a point of uncertainty for us; there's definitely a black metal presence across the album, but I wouldn't call it black metal (aside from the song "Swarm"), and there's also some sharper thrashy riffs along with slow sludgier ones, so I've come to think of it as a mix of those styles plus elements from other ones. I think with genres, there's always the worry in the back of your mind that you're overthinking it and a listener from outside the band will give it a quick listen and immediately pinpoint it as more generic than it is, in which case you sound a bit pretentious, but people didn't really have a clear idea of what the debut was like, so hopefully this new one will also sound relatively fresh
Well I have to say this is a very impressive track, it has a very good sound quality, and has such an infectious rhythm and groove to it, and a solid harsh vocal performance too. The most impressive part for me though has to be the tempo change and build-up after mid-way. Without necessarily putting it into a specific genre, I'm inclined say meloblack is what I hear most.
Doesn't mind at all if this is black, post metal, thrash or sludge, it's a very interesting blending of all that and I hope you have a great future ahead.
