I.E. LOSING ITS INNER SPIRIT

2017-08-12 22:37:40 UTC  

went off into electronic music

2017-08-12 22:37:45 UTC  

AGREED THAT IT SHOULD BE DIFFERENT, BUT...

2017-08-12 22:38:03 UTC  

it does have a pejorative meaning attached

2017-08-12 22:38:06 UTC  

but the term nevertheless

2017-08-12 22:38:07 UTC  

is meaningful

2017-08-12 22:38:12 UTC  

it is in fact deconstructed metal

2017-08-12 22:38:13 UTC  

even when good

2017-08-12 22:38:25 UTC  

of course retaining spirit

2017-08-12 22:57:24 UTC  

The term post-metal was hijacked many years ago, wasn't it?

2017-08-12 22:58:23 UTC  

Post-Metal is used for Metal that's been pozzed by Indie filth nowadays, isn't it?

2017-08-12 23:07:56 UTC  

Yes, it sounds - at best - like watered-down Neurosis crossed with indie rock

2017-08-12 23:08:02 UTC  

BONUS POINTS FOR THE //gs IN THAT GIF

2017-08-12 23:08:16 UTC  

post-metal would apply to the bad stuff too

2017-08-12 23:08:19 UTC  

its all post-metal

2017-08-12 23:13:12 UTC  

@fallot Have you listened to the Ras Algethi demo from 93?

2017-08-12 23:13:26 UTC  

yes, I love it

2017-08-12 23:13:31 UTC  

it has one of my favourite Ras Algethi riffs

2017-08-12 23:13:57 UTC  

Oh? I should try it then

2017-08-12 23:14:00 UTC  

1:55 3rd track

2017-08-12 23:14:06 UTC  

let me link that track, if I can

2017-08-12 23:14:29 UTC  

that one's great

2017-08-12 23:14:40 UTC  

Please do

2017-08-12 23:15:00 UTC  

I've seen that some of the members went on to other projects

2017-08-12 23:15:13 UTC  

from that timestamp

2017-08-12 23:15:55 UTC  

riff is at 17:36

2017-08-12 23:16:44 UTC  

This sounds interesting, even when taken out of context

2017-08-12 23:21:53 UTC  

They've got a great sense of weaving melodies over long timespans

2017-08-12 23:22:46 UTC  

Something that should be a requirement for performing this type of music

2017-08-12 23:23:44 UTC  

yeah, no doubt

2017-08-12 23:24:09 UTC  

the other tracks are good too

2017-08-12 23:24:33 UTC  

Will listen in full. Maybe worth checking out the related bands to see if there's any magic left

2017-08-12 23:24:40 UTC  

not really

2017-08-12 23:24:49 UTC  

its a shadow of it though

2017-08-12 23:25:12 UTC  

I assume you're referring to Canaan

2017-08-12 23:26:21 UTC  

Ras Algethi makes doom metal a credible label

2017-08-12 23:27:37 UTC  

I just checked M-A and found a couple of bands. Enoch, Rostau, and some more I can't remember

2017-08-12 23:30:57 UTC  

I don't know most of them

2017-08-12 23:31:03 UTC  

Canaan is the major post Ras Algethi project
