Masterpiece! šŸ”„

#

FUCKS HARD

#

Holy fuck I want Ephemeral to last forever

#

This is fucking PEAK

true schooner
#

1 a flash of light interlude/10
2 remnant 10/10 (what a fucking chorus)
3 aquila 10/10 (what a fucking chorus v2)
4 memory of light 8.5/10 (not bad but nothing catches nt attention)
5 echoes 10/10 (holy fuck?)
6 the orphan breed 9.5/10 (ass shaker)
7 dissect yourself 9.5/10 (GOD DAMN)
8 emanate 7/10 (its good but overplayed for me and lacks the kick the rest of the album has)
9 ephemeral 100/10 (holy fucking peak?) SOTY
10 cycles 9/10 (great closer, great chorus)

#

this album is actually incredible

#

i dont think ive ever rated an album this high

#

9.9/10 album

#

AOTY

#

ephemeral is SOTY

#

hands down

#

ive locked it in

lyric surge
#

9/10 on aquila is illegal... otherwise pretty well rated!

dusky timber
#

Is good.

vague holly
#

This is indeed a banger album
Damn so much good stuff this year man

#

And it keeps coming

inner sparrow

1 a flash of light 8/10
2 remnant 9/10
3 aquila 8/10
4 memory of light 7/10 (why fade out here?)
5 echoes 8/10
6 the orphan breed 8.5/10 (went harder with context)
7 dissect yourself 7/10 (more interlude than le noir bozos)
8 emanate 8/10 (went harder with context)
9 ephemeral 9/10
10 cycles 9/10

#

overall 8.5/10

flat terrace
#

Album fucks/10

dusky timber
#

ALLT headliner early next year lfg

solemn garden
#

The only thing that slightly irks me is the transition between the interlude and Remnant is not seamless

#

But it is a very very small nitpick

visual dome
#

aquila is peak af

#

10

#

^i'm not done with the album yet

#

but this is so far in 9 territory

solemn garden
#

Ephemeral is becoming my ringtone

visual dome
#

I may need to rearrange my aoty list

#

and add onto the top 15 KEKW

#

and even top 20 ngl

solemn garden
#

I think mine has over 15 but I have allocated only 14 spots

#

But it is not the end of the year (as in November/around the time of Spotify list) so I can rearrange it later

visual dome
#

i'm still contemplating on putting #1291497925356027995 in the top 10 ngl...

#

I may need to switch it out with no. 8

solemn garden
#

SHOKRAN RAHHHHHHHHHH

solemn garden
visual dome
#

and also the new heriot album

visual dome
solemn garden
#

Oh okay

visual dome
#

10 and 9 are staying tho

solemn garden
#

I thought you're gonna remove

visual dome
#

so it may be 11

#

and boundaries will be 12

solemn garden
#

LMTF album resonated with me a lot

visual dome
#

I might honestly switch 4 and 10 tbh

#

but then that would make 0 sense

#

cause 10 is a 10/10 while I gave 5 a 8

#

ok yea... my list is fucking flawed

solemn garden
#

Finish this album and give it your thoughts

visual dome
#

this is my thought

solemn garden
#

It gets better near the end

visual dome
#

Aquila is based of a song

#

10

#

and dissect yourself is already beating me

solemn garden
#

Orphan Breed, Ephemeral and Dissect Yourself in the top 3 for me

visual dome
#

my list is the most objective yet cause an 8 is higher than a 10

#

and 9's

#

fuck man

#

I hate my life

solemn garden
#

It is fine

#

it is YOUR list, doesn't need a justification

visual dome
#

nah but the scaling makes 0 sense

#

1-3 makes the most sense

visual dome
#

yea this is peak

#

9

visual dome
#

I may switch 5 and 6 tbh

#

but I had to do a lot of switching

#

and possibly switch 7 and 15 but that im unsure about

#

this shit is harder to do than college man...

flat terrace
dusky timber
#

Gotta give this some more listens, I cant really formulate my thoughts yet

flat terrace
#

I'm not sure it's gonna make top 10

#

realised I've had the new alcest album misspellt this entire time

#

it's l'aurore

#

actually wait I lied I think it will make top 10

#

My list now looks like this

elfin roost
#

good album

#

very good

#

ephemeral and dissect are the best

#

orphan breed is best of the singles

elfin roost
#

Cracked the top 10 for me

true schooner
#

not a fan of the track? or you think it should be 10/10?

#

honestly its probably 9.5 for me now

#

ephemeral is hands down soty

#

flawless track

#

amazing

#

peak

#

tears of joy every listen

#

If I got into these guys from The Orphan Breed, will I like the rest of the album? The singles that came after weren't quite it for me, but granted I did only listen to em once

lofty radish
#

solid album

true schooner
#

Lots of moments like it

#

Cant guarantee youll like every track but its worth a listsn

manic nexus
#

Now that im fuckin free

#

This album was great

#

Way better than i expected

hollow crystal
#

Fuckin riff in ephemeral man

full mesa
#

So, finally I get to listen to this, and I get a very "Architects' LF/LT produced by Buster Odeholm" vibe from this so far šŸ™‚

austere rain
#

Still got to remember to listen to this

dusky timber
#

Aight, gave it two more listens. It's really good, but doesnt quite hit the AOTY contender spot for me

hollow crystal
#

a song or 2 more like Echoes wouldve been great

#

really dig his cleans

#

verses of Echoes some of my fave parts here

deep crest
#

This album goes so hard live

#

Saw them tonight with imminence their tour and holy shit

#

Echoes is probably my favo

deep crest
frozen shale
#

is it just me or is dissect yourself a bit quieter than the other tracks?

#

also, might post the tunings of each song so peeps who learn by ear can play it accurately

frozen shale
#

Actual tuning (27" scale, 10-52 + 74):

  • F# C# F# C# F# A# D#
  • F D# G# C# F# A# D#
    Remnant: E B E B E G# C# (pitch shifts to B)
    Aquila: D# A# D# A# D# G C (pitch shifts to C#, C)
    Memory of Light: E B E B E G# C# (pitch shifts to C, G#, E0)
    Echoes: E B E B E G# C# (pitch shifts to B and octave up)
    The Orphan Breed: D# A# D# A# D# G C (pitch shifts to D, C#, B, A#)
    Dissect Yourself: F D# G# C# F# A# D# (pitch shifts to G#/F0?) (?, very unclear)
    Emanate: E B E B E G# C# (pitch shifts to D#)
    Ephemeral: F# C# F# C# F# A# D# (pitch shifts to D, C#)
    Cycles: F# C# F# C# F# A# D# (pitch shifts to D, C#, B)

# true schooner I didnt spot any difference

eh, maybe it's my streaming service (tidal) doing some normalisation shit
that's the only track on my listen that's like 1db quieter than the rest at the same headphone volume

true schooner
#

Yeah im on Spotify

deep crest
#

i know you can with yt music and spotify, but tidal is very unknown territory for me

frozen shale
deep crest
#

odd

frozen shale
#

idk if it's intentional tho, considering it's directly after the destruction that is the orphan breed haha

true schooner
#

allt might be my favorite band now ngl

austere rain
#

Time to listen to this album

austere rain
#

Wow, that was really good

#

This band has such a unique breed of nu-metalcore + thall with some progressive and djent elements within (one could call it an ORPHAN BREED :D). It provides an atmosphere that compels one to explore it deeper.

dusky timber
frozen shale
#

tbh, i kinda have a lot of hot takes bout this album
but i still enjoy it and am glad more people are liking this band that came out of nowhere from the forests (at least according to buster)

true schooner

Other music sucks now

#

Why don't you TAAAAAKE the fallllll

solemn garden
#

For meeeee

#

Forevermore in unity

austere rain
#

This album is gorgeous

solemn garden
#

AoTY for me

#

Overthrown Shokran

austere rain
#

It has the potential to be AoTY

#

For me

solemn garden
#

Fair enough

austere rain
#

Definitely gonna have to keep listening though

#

Still would have to beat out both the Bring Me album and Diamond Construct

solemn garden
#

Bring me was good

#

But uhhhh

#

It didn't connect with me as much as the other albums did

austere rain
#

It's just SO. DANG. CATCHY.

#

Definitely one of their wildest albums

#

I'm a sucker for albums that feel like a journey.

#

And Bring Me's is definitely a trek and a half

#

And then there is Diamond Construct. So catchy and edgy and nu-metalcore glitchy trap energy that just hits all the right spots (it's also a good album for gaming)

#

I could see Allt taking the category of being just a beautiful mix of soundscapes and melodies

manic nexus
#

I havent returned to the bring me album even once in months

#

Startin to think shit was just actually mid

Ooh, Within The Ruins is amazing too

#

IT ECHOES IN MY MIND

true schooner
#

echoes is my breakdown of the year

#

emphernal (or however you spell it) is my riff of the year and song of the year

#

and this is my album of the year

#

im gonna meat ride this till ffaa releases

inner sparrow
#

my riff of the year still goes to hestehov

true schooner
#

thats a bit too thall for me

#

but fun tracks regardless

#

i just cant listen to them on repeat

#

i def think robin (allt vocalist) is vocalist of the year

#

the improvement this guy has done is insane

#

he can do it all flawlessly

#

perfect cleans perfect lows perfect highs

full mesa
#

This is the first album in a very long time where I've added songs to my playlist during the first listen - having not listened to the singles after Emenate and The Orphan Breed. I think they might just dislodge Diamond Construct's insane Angel Killer Zero as my AOTY so far.

austere rain
#

Same, honestly

#

After looking more into Echoes, it's really starting to hit me in the feels

#

How the heck did I sleep on this band for so long

#

I must do some art based on this song

lyric surge
austere rain
#

Honestly, for a lot of the bands I only just like or am unfamiliar with, I often wait until the album drops, in order to not get spoiled on the entire experience.

i know im a lil late to the party but holy shit

#

this album is fucking insane what the hell

solemn garden
#

Hell yeah homie

#

Got any favs?

vapid vortex
#

i didnt even listen to the singles and im honestly so glad i didnt because this as a full album is an otherworldly experience

#

definitely remnant aquila echoes and whatever heavenly drug ephemeral is on

solemn garden
#

Based

shell vapor
#

good album

#

would love an instrumental release of this albun

#

the instrumental is so sick that i wished that there weren't vocals during some parts to let the instrumental breathe a little

hollow crystal
#

dissect yourself some of the __ h a r d e s t__ shit heard this year

reef imp
#

i mean it’s good

#

i need to properly sit down and fully listen but i like it

solemn garden
#

NOW YOU LISTEN TO THEM SING
I HEAR, I HEAR THEM CALLING
WITH MELODIES OF DISBELIEF
I HEAR, I HEAR THEM CALLING ME
IMPOSSIBLE TO MOVE
IMPOSSIBLE TO THINK
PLUG ME IN PLUG ME IN PLUG ME IN
YOU'RE TRAPPED INSIDE A DREAM
COME BACK FROM THE BRINK
LET GO LET GO
OF YOUR SUSPENDED DISBELIEF

dusky timber
#

THEY'RE OUT THERE
EYES SEEK THROUGH THE SKY
NOT A GLIMPSE OF LIGHT
TRYING TO MEMORIZE THESE FAINT TRACES
DID YOU REALLY CHECK
THE NOOSE AROUND YOUR NECK

lyric surge
austere rain
#

I am HERE

solemn garden
#

So uhh I tried to figure out what they were saying in A Flash of Light so as to make sense of the whole picture

#

"I'm a little perplexed right now
Starting to think about things, I never told anybody
Of my parents, my brothers my best friends, my wife, Nobody
I don't think I wanna move there
We follow the Instructions which were to crouch down, put our backs towards the sun, cover our head and cover our eyes
I can feel the Earth shaking
And it closed in, There is a huge great ring
All the way around as far as you can see ...........
Where one side of the great ring, it's Daylight and the other side, was night"

#

The question mark is something I'm not sure about and the dots are words I cannot make out

austere rain
#

I'm a little perplexed right now,
Starting to think about things... I never told anybody.

solemn garden
#

Sweet

austere rain
#

Not my parents, my brothers, my best friends, my wife, nobody.

#

Put our backs towards the sun

solemn garden
#

Oh it's the sun

austere rain
#

And it closed in.... there was a huge great ring

#

All the way around, as far as you could see, it rised up(?)

#

That part doesn't sound right

solemn garden
#

Yeah that's the part that confuses me the most

#

Horizon up? Cause it expands throughout your vision?

austere rain
#

Maybe

solemn garden
#

And then the rest is about daylight on one side, night on the other, followed by Remnant with not having seen daylight in forever

solemn garden
austere rain
#

No probs!

elfin roost
#

I think I figured out why I don't absolutely love this album

#

The vocals feel a little generic

#

Imo

solemn garden
#

Bait used to be believable šŸ˜”

dusky timber
#

Naaaaaaah, that's bait

keen cargo
#

That intro is something else.

shell vapor
#

the instrumental should get more space to breathe

keen cargo
#

I'm liking the guitar work on Aquila.

solemn garden
#

šŸ‘€

keen cargo
#

I was thinking "Why does everyone not like Memory Of Light? This shit slaps!", and then I hit the second half.

solemn garden
#

Memory of light is a good track

keen cargo
#

I think it would've been better if they kept the intensity from the start.

#

That's just my opinion, though.

solemn garden
#

Probably cause it follows into Echoes

solemn garden
#

Echoes hit different emotionally

elfin roost
#

the instrumentals are phenomenal

shell vapor
#

I would love an instrumental version of this album

elfin roost
#

yeah same

shell vapor
#

would listen to it more than the original

elfin roost
#

the vocals arent bad by any means but i feel like they take away from the instrumentals

shell vapor
#

yeah his vocals are good, just too much for me

keen cargo
#

Echoes is fucking solid.

#

That was a fucking mood through and through.

#

And then it goes into The Orphan Breed?

austere rain
#

Echoes definitely has to be my favorite song on the record

shell vapor
austere rain
#

Still want to draw something based on it

keen cargo
#

You could riff off the title and do a sort-of echoing silhouette.

austere rain
#

I could!

elfin roost
#

dissect yourself probably my favorite

keen cargo
#

I hate The Orphan Breed's fadeout. Everything else about it is a banger.

austere rain
#

I was also thinking of doing a double-sided artwork where you could flip it upside down.

keen cargo
#

Or maybe something showing in the negative space?

#

I don't know. I'm just throwing out ideas.

#

Emanate is a bop.

#

That intro to Ephemeral had me very intrigued.

#

Oh yeah. That's the shit.

#

Yeah, that's going in the main playlist.

#

Cycles was ok, wasn't terribly gripping.

#

Overall the album is an 8.5/10 for me. Loved Aquila, Echoes, and Ephemeral.

solemn garden
manic nexus
#

It’s guud

#

Better than i expected

dusky timber
#

I'd love an instrumental version of this

shell vapor
#

yes

dusky timber
#

I think I am ready for a final verdict: This album is incredibly fun and front to back loaded with great instrumentalisation and vocals, but for some reason it just doesnt connect with me and stays in my mind like some other albums did. Moments of it do, and I“ll probably never get tired listening to it, but it“s doesnt quite reach the mental chokehold other albums have/had me in

#

Strong 8.5 I think

true schooner
#

memory of light upgraded to 8.5/10

#

this album is insanely consistently amazing

#

one of a kind for me

dusky timber
#

Aquila into Memory of Light is so good

#

Honestly the entire album is, I really dont know why the obsession isnt kicking in...

primal umbra
#

I’d give this thang a 8.5/10

#

About as good as this genre can be instrumentally

#

But

#

Not really that many good hooks or catchy moments

#

Lots of super fun creative stuff to make up for it tho

#

Very enjoyable for a genre of music that I don’t normally enjoy šŸ”Š

elfin roost
#

like it feels like something i should be obsessed with

#

but im just not

reef imp
#

me too, i loved every second of it but im just not obsessed with it

clear shale
#

this is now 3rd on my AOTY rankings

visual dome
#

my aoty still just for now

#

I heard an album today for an exchange that came out this year

#

What are everyone's top3 songs from this album?

solemn garden
#

Ephemeral, The Orphan Breed, Emanate

dusky timber
#

Aquila, Memory of Light, Echoes is one hell of a trip

keen cargo
#

Aquila, Echoes, and Ephemeral

austere rain
#

Echoes, The Orphan Breed, Ephemeral

shell vapor
true schooner
#

Aquila is up there aswell

#

Every song is peak to me

just a few days till i see them live finallyšŸ˜€

inner sparrow
#

Remnant, cycles, ephermal

molten lantern
#

Aquila, Ephemeral, Remnant

deep crest
#

Echoes aquila and orphan breed, but need to listen again fully tbh

lyric surge
#

Lots of diversity with the choices🫔 shows how good the album is

solemn garden
#

Most of us agreed Ephemeral is a banger

lyric surge
#

Mine are Aquila, echoes and maybe emanate? At least that has been the most played song for me cause it was the first single. Third pick is between emanate, remnant, orphan breed and cycles though

lyric surge
hollow crystal
#

orphan breed, echoes, dissect yourself

solemn garden
#

I'm spreading the word, again

past storm
#

Since yall aren't stopping yapping abt this album ill take the plunge

#

OK I fuck with remnant hard

hollow crystal
#

no skips

past storm
#

debatable on that one

deep crest
#

wouldn't say that either

true schooner
#

Nah no skips

#

10/10 album

past storm
#

Could just be me not having good memory or retention, but only the first few songs stood out to me

#

Gonna have to register

#

relisten*

dusky timber
dusky timber
shell vapor
#

album has a few skips

austere rain
#

Echoes is definitely not a skip

primal umbra
#

Still an 8/10 for me tho

keen cargo
#

There's a skip in there. But most of the album is damn good.

primal umbra
#

As far as modern metal goes it’s a 10/10

past storm
#

One of the more enjoyable modern metal records for sure

true schooner

Easily

Dude sounds like hes screaming in pain

So good

Listening to this album alternating with Bilmuri's album is the vibe of 2024

#

Came back to this, still a fucking banger album
Pretty hard to decide for AOTY by now with all the great albums this year

hybrid nest
#

Fine, i'll give this a listen soon

vague holly
solemn garden
#

AoTY

hybrid nest
#

but of course, i'll give it a shot about this one

solemn garden
#

Take your time :D

hybrid nest
#

Oh, and Shokran too

solemn garden
#

Huge YES for Shokran

keen cargo
vague holly
#

U guys tellin me i need to listen to yet one more unique sounding album?

keen cargo
#

Yes. Shokran is probably my #2 for AOTY. So fucking good.

solemn garden
solemn garden
reef imp
#

is it good?

#

also i relistened to this, holy fuck it clicked, this is amazing

solemn garden
#

Also the ideo for Imhotep: Falcon of Gold is peak

reef imp
#

i’ll give it a shot once i finish running this album

solemn garden
#

:D

reef imp
#

ok idk what i was missing but this album is insanely good

#

first song has a tasty riff

#

the guitar work is phenomenal

vague holly
reef imp
#

oh this is good

hybrid nest
vague holly
#

They suffer from the same problem as boundaries and knocked loose, i just don't find the vocals appealing

#

Speaking shokran now btw, may be confusing

reef imp
#

really? i’m loving the vocals so far

#

the instrumentation is fire too

vague holly
reef imp
#

both tbh

vague holly
#

Well allt is pretty much up there fosho this year

reef imp
#

but shokran’s vocals are pretty good

#

the cleans took a sec but i do like em

reef imp
vague holly
reef imp
#

i can’t finish the album with my full attention right now, so i’ll check that bit of the album out when i can

hybrid nest
#

Wish me luck

#

REMNANT IS SO GOOOD

#

Oh my god, this is getting more peak

#

Aqullia's chorus is just blissful

#

Dear god, those fucking riffs at Memory of Light

hybrid nest
#

Christ, I was just speechless for a moment after I was done with it. This entire album made me absolutely astonished while listening to it for the first time ever as it hooked on me in the middle of it. The production and the mix on this are great since it delivers a beautiful, dark, clear, and the symphonic thall-y influence of this and for sure, it's a non skippable and a banger album for me imo. It's definitely hopping on my top 3 and an easy contender for AOTY

#

10/10

#

Although, this should be my top 3 from this album

  • Ephemeral
  • The Orphan Breed
  • Aqullia
#

Maybe i'll relisten to it again someday
