I'm probably going to sign up for an Egg one too that's for pick up the same location. Only $.50 more than supermarket eggs. I'd be crazy to not do that.
We grow our own vegetables and peaches but we know a friend with a cattle farm out here so we get from them but it’s not delivered, though that would be really nice

Dear France; whatever foul chemicals you've been putting into your children's milk, don't stop. Maybe it's a movement, or maybe that entire nation has just been going on constant psychotropic binges when the rest of us weren't paying attention, but either way, there's been some pretty wacky metal coming out of that country...recently? Or have they always had this "avantgarde" thing down with such astonishing creativity? Well, chalk up another one, because Akphaezya is another nifty little psychotic curiosity.
This is such a strange album, in order to describe the over all sound, one would need to go through each track individually, as The Tragedy Of Nerak is an album that incorporates a mind blowing amount of different sounds. For brevity sake, let's just say this; it's got melodeath, thrash, symphonic, traditional folk instruments, piano passages, proggy riffs, quirky Stolen Babies-esque moments, a touch or two of raspy black metal bits as well as a whole bunch of other shit that would take far, far too long to list here. On top of that, every sort of feeling is gone through as well; haunting sorrowful passages, angry metal riffs, bouncing humor, etc, etc.
Oddly enough, Akphaezya's greatest strength is also their downfall. It's too eclectic. Variation is something that can always be appreciated, obviously, but it can be a little too much when it frequently sounds like you're listening to a different band from song-to-song (or even segment-to-segment). Those out there who generally don't really have the attention span to sit through an album in it's entirety will probably love how different each song sounds from one another. Those who appreciate solidarity and consistency in their music might just find this more than a bit irritating.
This is an album that a review can do no justice to. Appropriately describing this in a succinct manner is impossible without doing a play-by-play, in which case you might as well just go ahead and listen to it...Which you probably should be doing anyways.
Would you say this is along the same vein as Smohalla? I really enjoy Resilience
I don't think so , this band uses female vocals ... I think they are nothing like smohalla . they are kinda like a tamed unexpect . I still haven't heard this one though .

I would say it like this: Akphaezya are to jazz what Diablo Swing Orchetra is to swing. At least from what I remember from their debut.
A "tame Unexpect" is fine too, but I wouldn't compare them that much. Both female vocalists are insane though. Akphaezya's singer is woman enough to do her own growls though so she doesn't need 3 extra guys for that like Unexpect.
If you have never heard them, here you have my favorite two songs from their debut. Chrysalis (1:35-3:05 is just brilliant) Reflections (LOVE the chorus)

*Fucking Nicki Minaj ads -.-*
Judging by those there is very little similarities to Unexpect, the vocals are the only aspect really and even those are of quite a different character most of the time. Anyway sounds pretty crazy, I like it! That second track,

may this never happen to our beloved Unexpect weird bands ftw !
I'm listening to Akphaezya's previous effort right now and I find it much better than last time .
It sounds really interesting. I searched for them on youtube and I came across their weird but very creative video for the song Nemesis. Really interesting stuff.

It is humanity who must pay homage to the greatness of the Universe... not the Universe to the human narcissism.
Always been a huge fan of Avant-Garde black metal bands and expirimental metal with the talent to back it. This certainly looks even more strange than Damned Spirits' Dance... Didn't hear Akphaezya's first album yet, but even the track theme for this one seems cool. I'll get this second I find out how to. lol.
