Soundscape Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 Khlyst - Chaos is My Name About as bleak and terrifying as you can get and I love it. It's Plotkin & that = quality so the vinyl is on me list. "Invoking an aesthetic amalgam of black echoes, night sweats, and necromancy, Khanate bassist James Plotkin (Phantomsmasher, ex-O.L.D.) and vocalist Runhild Gammelsaeter (ex-Sunn O))), Thorr's Hammer) set forth on a bleak journey beset with incubi, death convulsions, and abject hopelessness. The eight chapters that comprise Khlyst's oeuvre basically sound like you're being beat with a wet mattress while someone screams in your ear. Paradoxically, it's also completely musical and wholly enjoyable. Brutal, jarring, unique" 3

Funnily enough I was spinning the Thorr's Hammer record this arvo, geez it's good I agree. Have you got the one he did with Paal Nilssen-Love recently? It's a ball tearer. I'll have to check out Thorrs Hammer, never heard any.
ekymetal Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 Can't wait to hear this album, is it the one with the ex wizard ex rammesses blokes? Yep sure is the 2 tracks i have heard are killer. Was lucky enough to score the limited purple vinyl edition. just gotta wait for it to turn up now.... There was a gold edition, but long sold out, going for in excess of $150 already ! bloody crazy !!

tubularbells Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 New MDB, unfortunately this needs to be returned due to a pressing defect on side B so yeah definitely feeling the misery right now...grrrrr 3
NeilNZ Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 (edited) It's a damn good album though, definitely feels like a return to their roots. I think Hamish's departure is a good thing... I got the 2x10", 2xcd version in the book thing. Very cool. Edited October 23, 2015 by NeilNZ 1

likwidsh0k Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 (edited) I had lost hope, chewbing this now to see if it delivers.. Fear Factory - Mechanize.jpg Just finished Powershifter, hell yes it delivers, ahh the sweet industrial metal FF goodness of old!! Gene Holgan, whoa! Mentioned Opeth in his wiki, but the name didn't ring a bell (groans), but then found was only the Grand Conjuration video. Now Oxidizer, awesome FF album. Thanks @@Satanica Now Controlled Demolition, loving this album! The clean and heavy Bell back in spades! Sorry about this, but now Final Exit which I have heard before? Awesome album! So a couple of days ago I returned excitedly to my ol' fav FF & Mechanize and after a few tracks was wondering if it was the same album I kind of fanboy raved about above. As after 3 tracks in, it had Burtons awesome vocals but I just felt I was getting pummelled with predominant drums. So a quick review googlin found this, and it rings very true, to these ears.. Dino formed a new band in the meantime called Divine Heresy. The band was basically your typical metalcore band. The plus side was that the band had recruited drummer extraordinaire Tim Yeung into its' ranks, but with Dino's boring stacato riffs, it still sounded like generic metalcore. After Fear Factory toured for their 2004 and 2005 albums the band went on hiatus. It seemed as if Fear Factory was done until the summer of 2009 when lead singer Burton C. Bell announced that he had reconciled with Dino. Later that summer, the two announced they were reforming Fear Factory minus original members Christian Olde Webers and Raymond Herrera and in their places were Byron Stroud on bass and Gene Hoglan on drums. This had all the ingredients for an awesome project solely due to Hoglan's involvment. I loved his work with Dark Angel and Strapping Young Lad. I also thought maybe Dino would return to creating crushing industrial riffs like he used to back in the old days so this had no reason not to be awesome. But what did we get instead? We got music that sounded almost identical to Divine Heresy, only with Burton doing vocals, and it was still labelled as 'Fear Factory'. The band was the same formula as Divine Heresy too. Just take a kick ass drummer and try to keep up with him with heavy guitars, do the same thing for ten tracks or so, and there you have this album. Now I need to seek out and listen to some Divine Heresy.. Edit: Forgot the sauce - Divine Heresy only with Better Vocals - 2% Edited October 25, 2015 by likwidsh0k
