Artist: Buried Inside
Album: Chronoclast: Selected Essays On Time-Reckoning And Auto-Cannibalism Genre: Post-metalcore Label: Relapse Year: 2005 1. Introduction [2:51] 2. Time As Ideology [3:15] 3. Time As Methodology [2:23] 4. Time As Surrogate Religion [7:12] 5. Time As Imperialism [4:24] 6. Reintroduction [2:00] 7. Time As Abjection [4:55] 8. Time As Automation [0:57] 9. Time As Commodity [5:50] 10. Time As Resistance [6:16] A friend bought this yesterday and lent it to me for purposes of ripping. It's atmospheric, crushing, brutal and amazingly original. The closest thing I'd be able to compare it to would be Cult of Luna, but it's quite far removed from even them... Crushing riffs, harsh hardcore-influenced vocals, repetition, ambient passages - It's certainly not for everyone, but definitely worth a listen. Download Link Jam it back in, in the dark. |

Artist: Boris
Album: Flood Genre: Post-rock, stoner doom Label: MIDI Creative Year: 2000 1. Part I [14:42] 2. Part II [13:35] 3. Part III [20:38] 4. Part IV [21:35] A first-time listener - specifically, a first-time post-rock listener - might be intimidated by the more repetitive parts of this album. It's worth it, I promise. Flood is a 70-minute instrumental epic divided into four parts, combining elements of post-rock, doom metal and psychedelic music; influences include (among others) Sunn O))), Melvins and Sleep. The tracks are easy to get your head around: An intro and an outro and two fleshy bits in the middle. It's hardly appropriate to say "hey try something different" in a community of people who listen to offbeat music, so I'll just sign off by imploring you to at least check it out. Download Link Additional Spam: Artist: Beyond Twilight Album: For the Love of Art and the Making Genre: Symphonic progressive metal Label: Nightmare Year: 2006 FUCK MASSIVE TRACKLIST:
There are a few Dream Theater uploads in this thread - This isn't the same sort of music at all. Beyond Twilight are a somewhat avantgarde Danish progressive metal band, using orchestral elements alongside some pretty grandiose music. This album is interesting in that it's divided into 43 tracks, each of which starts with the same note, making for some interesting listening options. Download Link This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
Artist: Unexpect
Album: In A Flesh Aquarium Genre: Extreme avant-garde metal Label: The End Year: 2006 1. Chromatic Chimera [5:52] 2. Feasting Fools [6:17] 3. Desert Urbania [7:30] 4. Summoning Scenes [7:47] 5. Silence_011010701 [5:14] 6. Megalomaniac Trees [5:57] 7. The Shiver - Another Dissonant Chord [3:00] 8. The Shiver - Meet Me At The Carrousel [4:08] 9. The Shiver - A Clown's Mindtrap [3:41] 10. Psychic Jugglers [11:11] Anyone familiar with the idea of avantgarde metal will probably immediately think of Arcturus or similar artists - I believe a Diablo Swing Orchestra album is somewhere in this thread. (For those not so familiar: wiki article). This is nowhere near as conventional. In A Flesh Aquarium is all over the place musically. The songs are completely absent of any structure, and there's a wide variety of styles. Unexpect draws on genres ranging from circus music to death metal; plus there's a pretty mean range of vocal techniques used on the album - soprano, deep-voiced singing, brutal growling... That said, of course, it won't necessarily be accessible for everybody. Download Link Most amazing jew boots |
Artist: Ayreon
Album: 01011001 Genre: Progressive metal / rock opera Label: InsideOut Year: 2008 DISC ONE: Y 1. Age of Shadows [10:47] 2. Comatose [4:26] 3. Liquid Eternity [8:10] 4. Connect the Dots [4:13] 5. Beneath the Waves [8:26] 6. Newborn Race [7:49] 7. Ride the Comet [3:29] 8. Web of Lies [2:50] DISC 2: EARTH 1. The Fifth Extinction [10:29] 2. Waking Dreams [6:31] 3. The Truth Is In Here [5:12] 4. Unnatural Selection [7:15] 5. River of Time [4:24] 6. E=MC² [5:50] 7. The Sixth Extinction [12:18] Candidate for the best album of 2008 already? Quite possibly. Arjen Anthony Lucassen has done it again. It's easily his most ambitious project yet, featuring an an all-star cast of seventeen singers, two guest guitarists, three keyboardists, a flute, a violin and a cello. 01011001 returns to the science fiction themes of older Ayreon albums, and has plenty of lyrical throwbacks to them all - the stories are all interconnected, you see. We must resolve this Human Equation... I'd hate to reveal too much about the story (so much of the fun is in figuring it out for yourself), but it revolves around a group of emotionless aliens from a planet named Y, and their work to do stuff with humanity. There are a few songs separate from the main story which still tie in with the general theme of the thing (Connect The Dots, Web of Lies, The Truth Is In Here, E=MC²). This album's absolutely genius. I've never known anybody else to be able to write songs which integrate words like "demonstrable" and "extremophiles" so beautifully. The music itself is delightfully bipolar. There are dark, brooding passages right next to some of the most uplifting music of Arjen's career. It's not quite as musically varied as The Human Equation, but damn, does it come close. So, yeah - I'm going to have to give it a few more spins before I can be sure if I like this more than previous Ayreon works, but until I really get to know it, I'm still stuck in the "shitballs, this album is awesome" phase. In fact, I implore everybody to buy this thing when it comes out. Please. Pretty please. Piracy is wrong. The cast is as follows: Vocalists: Hansi Kürsch (Blind Guardian) Daniel Gildenlöw (Pain of Salvation) Thomas Englund (Evergrey) Jonas Renkse (Katatonia) Jorn Lande (ex-Masterplan) Anneke van Giersbergen (ex-The Gathering) Steve Lee (Gotthard) Bob Catley (Magnum) Floor Jansen (After Forever) Magali Luyten (Virus IV) Simone Simons (Epica) Phideaux Xavier Wudstik Marjan Welman (Elister) Liselotte Hegt (Dial) Arjen Anthony Lucassen Ty Tabor (King's X) Instruments: Guitar: Lori Linstruth (Stream of Passion) Michael Romeo (Symphony X) Keyboards: Derek Sherinian (ex-Dream Theater) Thomas Bodin (The Flower Kings) Joost van den Broek (After Forever) Drums: Ed Warby (Gorefest) Other instruments: Flutes - Jeroen Goossens (Flairck) Violin - Ben Mathot (Dis) Cello - David Faber Download Link: Disc One Download Link: Disc Two Warning: Some of the songs are improperly tagged; I didn't fix them before uploading. :\/ I was speaking idiomatically. |
Artist: Machinae Supremacy
Album: Overworld Genre: Power metal / electronic / VGM-inspired Label: Spinefarm Year: 2008 1. Overworld [04:21] 2. Need for Steve [04:11] 3. Edge and Pearl [04:00] 4. Radio Future [04:40] 5. Skin [05:24] 6. Truth of Tomorrow [04:35] 7. Dark City [05:56] 8. Conveyer [03:51] 9. Gimme More (SID) [03:25] 10. Violator [03:04] 11. Sid Icarus [03:58] 12. Stand [04:47] Machinae have done it again. VGM buffs here will know these guys for working Terra's theme into the song "Flagcarrier", as well as their three epic 8-bit medleys (the Sidology songs). Hey look here's their third album! Their 2004 debut, Deus Ex Machinae had some pretty dry production and lots of bleeps and bloops from their Sidstation. Redeemer, their 2006 offering, was a total contrast - much more guitar, lots of solos, breakdowns - it went to eleven. Overworld is a hybrid of the two, with a whole crate of atmosphere broken open for good measure. It's varied - some songs sound poppy and catchy, some are epic, some are borderline ballads. I'm not sure if I like this as much as I do Redeemer, but it still rocks pretty hard. Download link Most amazing jew boots |
