The Ichthyologist (Reissue / Remaster)

by Giant Squid

supported by

DeKremp This is the only band that I think I have commented on about every album I could find. They are just Incredible. I just pick the "favorite Track" randomly, I couldn't possible pick one song over another. Its ALL great. Favorite track: Panthalassa (Lampetra Tridentata).

Mars The Ichthyologist is a masterful compromise between sludge, jazz, and post themed around sea life. Regardless of being a remaster, the ideas and sounds the album present remain fresh and creative. There isn't much else like it. Favorite track: Sutterville (Vibrio Cholerae).

A thing of vicious beauty. A joining of minds from different planets, yet they still revolve around the same visceral star. Amazing. Grimmrobe

THE RAGING RIVER
by Cult of Luna

Par rapport au monstrueux A Dawn to Fear, The Raging River est un album qui paraît presque raisonnable. Sauf qu’il est dans la continuité de Cult of Luna, c’est-à-dire pas raisonnable du tout. Comme bande-son de fin du monde, il se pose un peu là: à l’instar de son titre, il va balloter l’auditeur entre cailloux, troncs arrachés et débris divers.
