.... Hello, old french here so bad english and blabalbal ^^ ...
I know Agalloch by the name for a long time now ... I never wanted to listen to it because a lot of poeple love them (why I dont know, but when I read "masterpiece" in a comment I have to run away far, every 2 albums you read "masterpiece", to much is killing it ! ^^) ...
It's like I thought it will be, boring but certainly a very good band in the genre ... It make me remember the band NONE (I bought all the albums but never heard all, to boring for me lol). But I think you will love some NONE songs (as I am until now) ...
So hearing Agalloch for the first time I find it interesting in the debut of the album but very fast it became boring, way to much acoustic stuff, to much clean singing ... (I like clean singing sometime, but not here ...) ...
Ok it's Blackened Doom + folk, but without the power and heaviness of this genre ... So as I thought, it's not for me ... Voilà ...
You are often talking about the "blabla" Metallum, me I am always reading them when I find a band (but it's only metal, true metal and you did not find Rock or other genres, but it's ok ... Very good "reading" there, specialy when an LP/Band has 8 + different reactors about the same topic ...
The most of the time you cannot go wrong with these guys even if they are talking bad about your "FAV" of the moment ...
One more thing, I like the way you are talking (thinking) about your subjects ...
Au Revoir ...
PS : I am not a "Tik Tok guy", so I am always long in my writings, sorry, but we are human (and "WE ARE DEVO" lol). (I love Devo, the band !!!).
Ωραιο ριβιου 🤘 θα σου αρεσει πολυ και το Ashes against the grain το επομενο τους :)
I have to thank you for this discovery! Now I'm going to listen to their albums at once!
I’m so glad you liked them! Go on 😃
Thanks for the review! Pale Folklore is my favorite album by them, truly a masterpiece.
Hi Jo, You might be interested in Wolves In The Throne Room, especially "Diadem of 12 Stars" LP...cheers and thanks for the great videos!
I love this band. I first listened to "You were but a ghost..." at a record store and was sold. "Ashes Against the Grain" is another worth your time.✌
New look is great!
Thanks 🤩
This is about Agalloch's first album Pale Folklor but still one of the best comments i ve ever read
Through a metaphorical story, the album explores the urge to withdraw from mechanized society into forest solitude, a desire often felt by the alienated and perceptively aware who see through the illusion of social constructs and functionality, and long for a return to a more genuine existence which corresponds to natural reality. In the forest, one can identify a proper surrounding environment for personal reflection and contemplation of the beauty, power, and reality of nature, which is the closest relationship one can establish with the true essence of things, beyond the subjective standpoint. The hatred and bitterness felt by the alienated towards society arrives from recognizing that the structure and function of society is entirely opposed to that of nature, and these disdainful feelings are not so much directed towards the particular members who are seemingly oblivious and apathetic to this truth, but to the artificial operation itself, which poses an obstacle for anyone who longs for a life that is in harmony with nature. This withdrawal from society into nature is not a fatalistic retreat or surrender, but rather a way of establishing a harmonious environment for the passionate and contemplative individual, who must reject all that is antithetical to its interests. It is the natural tendency to hate that which opposes one’s desires, and the hate increases in proportion to the degree of obstacle and intensity of the desire. Winter is the preferred season portrayed in the imagery and atmosphere of this music, because it is winter that most opposes the functions of society and often reveals the helplessness of man-made machines and designs in the face of harsh natural conditions. Winter slows everything down, which is why, along with its effect on the appearance of things, it is the most contemplative of all seasons. This is explored from a pagan spirituality and a pantheistic worldview, evidenced in the lyrical themes which often express deep appreciation of nature and universal unity, which is simply a recognition of the connection between all things, expressed in a belief that comes from awareness and experience in a natural world in which all pure things strive towards essentially the same end. The music is dark, cold, earthy and somber, sometimes bitter and misanthropic, at other times contemplative and reflective. The music, with assistance from a suitably unrefined yet clarifying production, sounds and feels like it was created in a log-cabin situated deep in the midwinter forest, true to the band's intentions.
Ακόμη μια μπαντάρα. Συνέχισε έτσι 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Ευχαριστω πολυ πολυ!
Nothing but the Whole by Emptiness? Would make for an interesting first listen if you haven't already. It really subverts expectations about metal music. Hell, their whole discography, especially from that album onward, does that.
Thanks!! I’ll try to film it! 😁
Necrophagia - Season of the Dead
I think you might like them.
Thanks 🤩
Hi, thanks for the video! Please listen to my friends Olshanoe - they are very similar to Agalloch.
I’ll check them out!
Please listen cutting the throat of god of ulcerate! Is the best extreme metal actually
🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Thanks ! I will!!
Fully agree. Cutting the Throat of God is an amazing album. Definitely my favorite of 2024 so far.
I was pretty much annoyed by that long song, so repeatable😅 so I always failed listening this album till the end, anyway thanks, maybe I will check the album
5 year olds enjoy Atmospheric Folk, Black, Doom 🎶
Great LP, my original T-Shirt is worse for wear...
BTW, I imagine this record came out before you did. :)😜
Hahah actually no! I came out in ‘97 :)
Sounds pretty epic. I’ll take a listen!
