23:43 - LICH anybody in the muisicians forum these days ?
23:41 - Iamawalker @TRollandDie, that's interesting. Never thought of it that way. Coke does taste better with say burger and fries, than without it...
Written by Marcus on 14.10.2011 at 07:12 This is a great album on it's own, but damn, if you've seen The Wicker Man (The Original!), this album takes on so much more meaning.
The original is a fantastic movie, among my favorites. And ya...if you've seen it the spoken parts in the EP bring back images from the film and adds to the experience. Agalloch are usually pretty good for making you feel their music.

Glad you've seen it, I sure hope you've seen the Nic Cage remake too. It's funny, the more I listen to it the more I like the movie too. I really commend them for striking such a strong connection between this EP and the movie.

I despise Nicolas Cage, but I watch his movies out of masochistic curiosity. The remake was awful (which I expected)... It's amazing how one movie can inspire a band to create music as heard on this EP and then some director decides to remake the same movie and lose touch with the original completely.
I mean I guess that's better than doing a shot-for-shot remake of Psycho, or judging by the previews I've seen, The Thing. People and their inadequacies.

Me too, but watching that movie really cracked me up despite it being such a bastardization of the original. And don't get me started on the new The Thing, from the previews it looks like they decided to get rid of everything that made the "original" good.
I love when he's like "Everywhere I turn my head there's something I don't understand" or whatever and then it pans to a guy wearing a bear's head for a hat. Too good.
I feel like one would be hard-pressed to make a good comedy trailer of the original. It's a really dark, atmospheric film that is perfectly captured by Agalloch on this EP. I highly doubt anything Nicolas Cage will ever be a part of will ever inspire a metal band.

Aside from his son, that is.
Hehehe I saw that video before ever seeing the movie and I thought to myself "there's no way a movie exists where Nic Cage seriously punch ~4 women".
Very true, there's very little comedy to be found in the movie. You should check out "Black Death" if you haven't already. It's takes place during the Plague but has a lot of the same themes and overall vibe as The Wicker Man.
I could see a grindcore band doing a Nicolas Cage themed album, maybe Ultra Vomit. And I actually had no clue his son is in a black metal band. That's pretty boss.

That's fucking awesome!
