This hits the sweet spot for me. Super complex guitar work, interesting patterns, some electronica buried in the mix. Not quite animals as leaders, but definitely similar and you can see them from here.

Link is to the video, here’s the new album: https://youtu.be/ByaaQG0g1ZQ

Seen at a national park.

It bulks it up, it stretches it out, it lowers the taste some.

Technically not the most representative track of the genre, but exceedingly listenable and you get some idea of what the rough vocals that are normally in blackgaze sound like. If you like the contrast, then blackgaze is definitely for you. If you prefer clean vocals, there are bands such as Astronoid That only have clean vocals.

Overall, blackgaze is the intersection between black metal which has heavy/fast drums and screamed vocals, With Shoegaze, which is a warm tone, lots of effects, my bloody valentine being the most recognizable example.

Just wondering what people thought the great reunion/comeback albums were from Maxophone, Il Roverscio Della Medaglia, PFM, Banco, etc etc.

No, I don’t know what the story behind that is.

Got this photo from my phone from the street. He was loud, hooted every 20-30 seconds. Really cool!

Unsure WHICH one of the TWDY this is, but tickets just went on sale.

Only a couple post-rock albums for me. But good on GIAA for releasing an album today! Including the others because hey, isn’t the old saying “math rock is just post rock with more Tapping?“

Girlfriends by Girlfriends (tappy math)

Star Showers On The Euphrates by *Ancients (so good)

Rosewood by Kaguu

Title undersells it. There's an actual festival in the Netherlands this weekend, celebrating Pelagic Records bands. So there are performances by ASIWYFA (playing the entire new album), Oh Hiroshima, The Ocean (playing the entirety of Pelagic) and a ton more. Free livestream, here's Saturday's video.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNKIcVHQ56M.

Sunday has The Ocean again, but also Ihsahn. I'm psyched to see Spurv, Briqueville, and EF. Tell your post-rock/post-metal/math-rock friends!

Unsure where I came upon this, but thought I would share. Post rock with some horn, probably would file it under “crescendocore“, reminds me a bit of We Lost The Sea. Takes a bit to get started, but that last track is a monster.

I am looking at these two, trying to find a deal on the Pro 2022 that makes it close to the price of the 13" 2024 Air. Right now the "deals" are still in the $999 range for it, as opposed to $800 for the Air. Which sucks - seems like the 2022 is still better, but $200 is $200. I have a pro 10.5" now, but the lure of bigger has finally won out, years later. Trying to see if I'm missing anything - on paper the 2022 is still better, even if older.

Advantages of the Pro 2022:

• FaceID, not TouchID
• Promotion display (120hz vs the Air's 60hz)
• can run external display

Advantages of the Air 2024:

• Cheaper
• Newer - supported longer?
• ? Anything else?

Don’t know how I’ve never come across this, but this made me laugh and cry and nod appreciatively.

VINTERSORG - Fjällets mäktiga mur (Official Lyric Video) (Folk metal, Sweden 2017)

I specifically added the folkiest track, but the whole album is fantastic. Hidden gem!

Production values are high, some interesting additions to the genre. Like Slay the Spire, but with Elder Gods

More on the crescendo-core end of the spectrum, but really good. The symphonic bits are a delight.
