You can always tell who the non-binary gen Zs are as they try to virtue signal by going out of their way to let everyone know that they dont like burzum, lol. So funny and weirdly pathetic.
As an indigenous person who loves all forms of metal....this is up there with Morbid Angel's Blessed, Emperor's Anthems, Carcass' Heartwork, Agalloch Ashes, this was the first album to move me in a long long time.
So many things I like about this, most of which have already been said. It's actually rare that I think metal vocals are anything above merely "getting the job done" but I really appreciate clarity of enunciating consonants while still maintaining brutal power and emotion which only makes it more powerful. All metal vocalists should listen and learn.
What sets this apart from other black metal is its concept. There is a theme running through the songs - actual stories being told. And a spirituality other than fake satanism. Sgah’gahsowáh is exploring and expressing his roots and his religion with genuine intent. We may not share the same belief system, but I respect and commend his vision.
I was blasted as I listened to "The River of Time Flows Through Me" for the first time, and each time after it again. And the full album fits to that impression. Really fantastic music. Keep up the great work!
I listen to all genres of Metal Music, D Beat, Crust Punk and Hardcore with the exception of Nu Metal (which I can't stand). Honestly though when Black Metal is executed to perfection like this is it blows everything else away in my opinion.
I was recommended this by a friend who loves Black Metal. I'm usually not into Black Metal genre myself, although I'm a big metalhead and a music fan in general. Two tracks in and I already love it! Absolutely love the fact that the album and the band's theme is Native American folklore/culture. This is how I always imagined an American Folk Metal to sound like. And the arrangements remind me a lot of old Skeletonwitch (especially Beyond The Permafrost and Serpents Unleashed albums) is a huge bonus for me!
Same here. I hate black metal, but I love this band. You know why we like this? Because it's NOT black metal at all. This is melodic death metal through-and-through. I have no idea why this band is classified as black metal. No idea why the band labels themselves black metal. It's not even close to being black metal, both musically and lyrically. We love this band despite not liking black metal, because this band is not black metal lol
I can not count how many times I have listened to this album. In all formats. Stream, cd in the car, tape and vinyl. This. Is. A. Masterpiece. Thank you
Absolutely. There is something very real about this project. Spiritual. Yearning. Urgent. Spectacular. it doesn't feel dark to me, as most albums in this genre feel to me (not to say that's a bad thing).
I'll say it again , 'The River of Time Flows Through me ' is the greatest piece of Metal I've heard in the past 5 years or so . And one of the greatest songs ever as well . Greetings from Greece !
First time in a long time I've connected with an album this much. It makes me bang my head, it makes me think, and (if I can be just a little pretentious)it makes me feel. What else can you ask from music? Blackbraid is amazing, can't wait to hear more.
Saw you guys at Copenhell yesterday, it was fucking beyond amazing! You guys ruled! And here is a fun fact, Jon played a flute on stage, once during a song and later as the intro to another song, during the flute intro to the second song, it literally started to pour with rain after us having had a drought here in the country for a long ass time, now I know it had drizzled a bit earlier in the day, but I choose to believe Jon is a real ass fucking Shaman! 🤘Blackbraid, you guys fucking rule, next time you roll through, I'll be there 🤘
Your music makes my heart feel intense. There really aren't many black metal bands that fill me with such emotion like this. It gives me comparable feelings like our traditional music does 🥹 such beautiful melodic blackness.
Saw these guys in Charlotte NC with Cattle Decapitation in May. Beautiful. I wasn’t expecting them to be there and was taken by their performance. Would be awesome to see them tour with Agalloch.
I went with some friends to VA Beach for the Pantera and Lamb of God show back in September, and we put on music in the hotel room. You guys came up, and I was immediately captivated. I wrote your name down in my list of bands to check out. Then another song of yours came on, and I liked it even more. By the 3rd song I was addicted. You guys are amazing. 🤘
Saw them month ago, it was mindblowing.. didnt listen before gig, i knew he is First Nations, native.. im 54yr mom who went there with my son.. qualitytime sooo well spent .. greetings from 🇫🇮 Finland ✌️💜 my new fave outside Finnish music
ordered 2 before listening to 1,now its a struggle to figure out which one to listen to first,so i mixed them with acoustic/flute songs first building up to the harder,longer stuff towards the end.Perfect!
Je fais les choses à l'envers (oui j'aime bien). J'ai d'abord écouté le n°2 qui m'a procuré un bien être immédiat. Le premier n'est pas en reste.. C'est enivrant et j'en redemande.. Les deux albums m'accompagnent lors de mes séances d'écriture, lors de mes trajets en voiture, lors de mes doutes nocturnes.. Bref, une découverte qui me bouleverse. Thks
Jon, from dissection, would be proud. 🎉i have a friend dating his brother. I'm part cree. Love this and so do my west coast natives. I'm mixed both sides.... Get into the windigo
Hope to see you in Portland supporting dark funeral, who I've been backstage for with septic flesh in their batman suits in LA I'm from, and give you a true native handshake.... For the four directions
On the one hand, I don't want to dis all of the bands that inspired this. On the other hand: Black Metal Artists: We're going to make the most intense, powerful and passionate music on the planet. Blackbraid: Hold my tomahawk.
Absolutely in love with your music, you remind me of Agalloch in a very good way, as well as Uada, yet you have a unique sound and I hope to see you live some day for some of the greatest time of my life!!!
This band surpasses Sargeist as my favorite. I think Blackbraid and Sargeist would be a perfect tour. Add Stormruler (from St. Louis, USA) on the bill and you have the absolute, mind-blowing, black metal guitar of the 2020s...
Truly spectacular, I've connected with your music the first time, that doesn't usually happen with all bands, I'll be waiting to hear your second album, and dreaming of being able to hear you live. Greetings from Bilbao, Basque country.
some native american black metal whoa this sounds like very well produced and cool indigenous elements tribal ones to the absolutely beautiful recording of that i mean these this album as a whole is a black metal masterpiece the fact that this can easiliy stack up to mayhem daemon as far as sincerty of the music and the style of playing and the atmosphere your wanting to create this has such a strong variety top notch compositions the very sudden rhythmic changes that frequently happen more with the second one cause you can hear the prgression he definitely been able to make with a very beautiful masterpiece here this is some holy native american black metal fire see now the flute comes in and silences me and that acoustic guitar sounds lie he sitting by a stream playing it just strummin away with the flute playing alongside so beautifully taking us on this really cool journey then the nice fade out and into Sacanda nice relentess drumbeat and guitar rif and it gets a little faster some deathly vocals sounds like fenriz of darkthrone the cool almost a rasp and the beat picks back up again i can definitely hear the bathory viking metal influences in there kinda cool
A salute from the Cherokee Nation!!
Kickass Native American black metal tunes here!
Horns up from the Navajo Reservation in Arizona....
Siberian Turkic*
Greetings from an Aztec 🤟
@@nashcell72 Hello there 🤘
Horns up in respect from the Nez Perce Reservation! 🖤
@@joebenson528 not Turkic. first humans in America, pops, no matter how you feel about it
Black Metal is true music of Nature 🖤🖤
I think so too
Sure is, that's part of why it's so amazing.
Have not experienced such spectacle from a solo project since the crazy days of Burzum. Thumbs up from a Norwegian!
Please don't compare this with buttzoom
Na que ver..esto está en otra dimensión.
@@dante666jt Bumzur ist like gargling in the toilet bowl in comparison to this. xD
You can always tell who the non-binary gen Zs are as they try to virtue signal by going out of their way to let everyone know that they dont like burzum, lol. So funny and weirdly pathetic.
Got narwhal 😝
I want to see Black Braid play with Behemoth!!!
Latest stuff of Behemoth is so bad, in my opinion. I really dont like their transition. But, hell yeah, I would go and watch them both!
As an indigenous person who loves all forms of metal....this is up there with Morbid Angel's Blessed, Emperor's Anthems, Carcass' Heartwork, Agalloch Ashes, this was the first album to move me in a long long time.

This music is perfect for Dibalo 4. I feel more connected to my Druid.
Saw these guys in Charlotte NC with Cattle Decapitation in May. Beautiful. I wasn’t expecting them to be there and was taken by their performance. Would be awesome to see them tour with Agalloch.
Tecumseh would be proud

A truly emotive experience which harkens the call of one's roots.
i am glad i forgot about this album so i can rediscover it again!
Wow! That's amazing! Hugs from Brazil! 🤩

Love the callback riff from the bridge of the first song at the end of the last song. That bridge is butter, btw.

As a rabid dissection fan, and Native American decent, finer praise could not be given, in my humble opinion. Cheers and horns up my friend 🍻🤘
I think this band is truly Amazing!
