Osso & Madeira - Caverna Incivilizatória

Jaketeme Odo from Pessimista goes solo to do some anti-fascist atmo-black.

Tinged with dungeon synth and sometimes melting into straight up 4am dark ambient synth creepiness, this is a bleak album.

To isolation, personal losses, hatred for those at the top of the pyramid ...

From inside the cave of loneliness, the echoes of wails and fury form shock waves that advance over their heads and open the earth beneath their feet.

I just decompose in a dark corner, while I observe the peace of society in the face of aggression.

Domesticated, you live peacefully in line at the slaughterhouse.
Here inside the cave, I can smell the rotting of his creation and his fears. Unfortunately, it seems to be too late for a reaction to take place on the dominating hand.

Maybe this is all just a hallucination, maybe I'm next in line at the slaughterhouse. Maybe I am also blind and I created a parallel reality that I call a cave so that I can feel safe.

Our approaching death.

Agriculture - Agriculture

a While calling themselves ''ecstatic" black metal, Agriculture traipses along the line between atmo-black and blackgaze pretty adroitly. I am not as head over heels as some of the metal press I have been reading about them (like Rolling Stone for instance), but I think they have a good thing going here. They remind me of Vattnet Viskar sort of, and I am going to withhold judgement until I can see them live to really decide. That said, this is an album that has been in heavy rotation at my house since its release. Agriculture by Agriculture

2022 Year In Review

Yeah, I have been MIA for 18 months. So what? You don't pay for this blog, I do. And I've been really busy starting my permaculture farm / goat cult in the abandoned mountains of northern Spain. Now that things are appropriately sustainable and grim, I am back to vomit my opinions on music all over the internet some more. Let's dive back into things with a wrap up of 2022. Here are my favorite-ish albums of the year, along with why they are superlative. Best Aural Approximation of a Mental Health Crisis Chat Pile - God's Country Would you like to know what it sounds like to be stuck in a trailer in the middle of nowhere USA with none of the drugs you need to forget exactly how terribly and awfully fucked your life is? Are you interested in turning the collective despair of a small town poisoned by unregulated mining and refining into a howl of impotent protest? Would you like to peel back the facade of "faith, family, farm" to gaze at the raw and bloody dis...

Dødsferd - Skotos

Raw atmospheric black metal it it's sun soaked Mediterranean best. Wait... That's not right. Oh, but it is. For 20 years, Greece has been the home of Dødsferd since it's beginning as a one-man side project. Now, 10 albums, as many splits and EPs, and five comps, two new songs are available. Packaged with a re-release of the landmark album 'Diseased Remnants of a Dying World', what you have here is the pinnacle of what raw atmo-black can be. A full LP of this would easily be Album of the Year. I can still hope right? Skotos (Atmospheric Black Metal) by DØDSFERD (Greece)
