Kinit Her – Divine Names tape
...perhaps it's time to abandon all sorts of bigger neo-folk heroes kind of jaded sounding new works, as much more apocalyptic, sonically interesting stuff is out there....
The band, or just about, in my sphere. Maybe they'll receive the recognition they deserve in the future, but that clearly isn't their goal to meet. This, for me, beats all the geriatric bar-chord neo(-hippie)-folk music out there. Just a personal opinion. Also, I think it needs to be acknowledged that these are two American boys. Fantastic stuff.
Storm Of Radiance (as well as
Wreathes) are legendary in my personal universe. Two albums that will never lose their spark. There's only a few other albums I've ever heard that contain that starstuff that melts my mind like those do.
Merkstave Merkstave (Pesanta Urfolk): The most stellar and crushing piece of (funeral) doom I've heard in a few years? Coming from a genre that seems to have run its course in the last half-decade, this is a hallmark slab of wax. These are redux renditions from their otherwise too-long demo tapes. From the same gents, I believe, that also put out the
Hell albums on Pesanta/Eternal Warfare. That never whet my whistle anything like this. Can't recommend it enough!
Burial Hex Six Wings TAPES (Nostilevo): Managed to score these from a user here a few months back. After several listens, I wonder why this wasn't the vinyl-pressed version "Six Wings"? It trumps the vinyl output, which was also excellent. You see all facets of the Ruby-verse, aside from the recent quasi-techno works. You've got cthonic drone industrial, piano pieces, deranged vocal assaults, etc. Two really killer tapes that hopefully won't be abandoned by Nostilevo while they press sub-par ____wave muzak.
PHBTK Verfall/Melachoir (Cathartic Process): As old and cold as I like it.
Many repeated plays of
Hheva Drenched In The Mist Of Sleep,
Crawl Unit Stop Listening and
Hands To Nazha.
