KYLESA - EXHAUSTING FIRE / 2015 / SEASON OF MIST / STONER METAL, SLUDGE METAL, HEAVY PSYCH
7/10
Y'all know this is just my opinion, right?
please review the Shrek 2 soundtrack Anthony
Loved this album, sludge for days
Big fan of Ultraviolet. It has a really nice in-between take on all those genres - rock, sludge, psychedelia. For someone who's new to the band, I found it attractive without being blown away. This new album is also sounding pretty solid so far. I'm really liking what the band is at the moment.
BangerTV has made the best metal documentaries I've ever seen and I hope they partner with you more in the future Anthony!
Also more metal reviews please
i discovered BangerTV through Anthony. I'm so glad i did!!!
Type O Negative already covered Paranoid in low tempo twenty three years ago.
I really like the low volume of the vocals. It gives you a sense that they are an instrument in themselves, complementing the guitar lines rather than being thrust into the spotlight. Especially as they tend to follow the guitar melodies quite closely
I love this record. I encourage everyone to purchase this record and see this band live to support them.
Kylesa is becoming one of my most favorite metal band so far. For me personally I think the band is like a mix of Pink Floyd and Black Sabbath with a Hardcore Punk twist.
Are you going to review the new Baroness when it comes out next month?
thank you for reviewing this ant'ny, glad you liked it
also philip cope i believe said in an interview that Moving Day is the third part of a trilogy consisting of "Dust" from Spiral Shadow and "Low Tide" from Ultraviolet. kinda cool to listen to the three together if you have the chance
Great review man! I think you summed it all pretty well. Exhausting Fire was their last album before they decided to put the band into a hiatus state and you can easily feel throughout the whole listening that the guys were getting, well exhausted haha! Not a bad album per say, but you can really hear that they were starting to be out of breath and inspiration, getting lost between different weird genres and styles, not knowing where to stand anymore. I think it was wise from them to put the band on ice, obviously they were heading into a solid concrete wall and they stopped at the right time. A good decision before starting to ruin their sound & discography.
I really liked this album. The clear vinyl is sweet as well.
I don't mind when a band "evolves" or changes.
But I definitely prefer the heavier Kylesa stuff. This record's production is also a little thin for their style.
I give it a solid "meh".
+nataskaos My thoughts exactly.
+nataskaos Hear hear.
Bus Driver- Thumbs PLEASE
Nice review man. Could you do the last All Them Witches? Would be interesting to know what you think about that one.
Anthony, when are you gonna review the new Killing Joke album Pylon? It's been sitting firmly at no.1 in the UK rock album charts since it was released a few weeks back. First time they've charted since the mid 80's. It's a cracking album, would love to hear your thoughts on it.
My Warlock in D&D is named Kylesa and it's kind of a badass sounding name(the Buddhist meaning of the word is actually a good description of my character). I couldn't remember for a while where I got the name from and then I remembered my ex loves Kylesa. Anyway, now I am compelled to listen to this album.
Kylesa is one of my favorite bands and I kind of agree with you, they definitely hit their peak with Static Tensions and Spiral Shadow. 7 is a fair rating.
As for what to review next, I know it's late but maybe the new BTBAM album that came out in July? It would be interesting to hear your thoughts.
+Anal Fissures Are Quite Fun If You Ask Me You're right, thanks. I just went back and watched it
I agree with a lot of your points here, but (as a drummer) a lot of the drum parts stick out to me, especially the fact that they have two drummers. I definitely encourage seeing these guys live if you have the chance just to watch the way those two drummers work together. It's truly impressive. One of my favourite releases of the year.
Light 9 for me, honestly.
However, a band that Kylesa toured with called Indian Handcrafts put out a rather crunchy record this year, that I'd definitely recommend listening to!
Hey anthony, I've seen your videos since 2012 and I'm a big fan of your work
I was wondering if you'll review the new fallout, it's pretty great at least in my opinion it would be great to hear yours
"Is this a tambourine in the background?" should be a meme
Anthony, could you maybe review Frontierer's Orange Mathematics? It's up on their bandcamp. Heaviest and crunchiest guitar tones I've heard this year, and fantastic vocals. pl0x thx ily keep it uP
Hi Anthony! Which psychedelic albums would you recommend? You should make a video about it! ;) with all genres.
I second this
this would be exciting.. with the year coming to an end soon..!
+Ana Beatriz F. Zero 7- When it Falls is my favourite
also Glass Animals- ZABA
+knox140 thanks! :D
+knox140 heard zero 7.. very chilled out trip hop vibe.. love it
Love this album. Yes, one can get nerdy analytical about it, but turn it up and work out to it, it's great. Love the riffs and the eerie feels. Did not like the Sabbath cover, though - a miss for me. But nevermind that, it's a great album.
I love the vocals on this album.
Anthony how do you choose what black metal- or metal in general - to review? Out of all of the metal albums that are released it's like all of your choices for metal reviews are odd
PLEASE DO AN ALBUM OF SAVANT!
I'd be really interested to hear a review of something by or similar to Dr. Acula. The older stuff like Slobology or Blow Me.
review the new intronaut album!
Please review the new "Abbath" Album
Please review the new Birds in Row EP or the new albums by Beach Slang and Drug Church!
Review the new Rustie Album!!
Best Kylesa album in years, imo
Review the new Intronaut album, The Direction of Last Things.
I haven't even heard it myself, but it's gonna be game of the year, 7/10.
Anthony, I'd love it if you reviewed the Hamilton Cast Album.
+Kyle4J A bit unconventional as it's a musical cast album, but I feel the explosion in popularity and the fact that it debuted at #3 on the Billboard Rap charts are a testament to it's excellence.
I disagree with your use of the word "boring" to define vocals on this album. I like the contrast between HEAVY SWAMPY SLUDGE mixed with the soft, almost haunting vocals. This album is heavy while chill, and you can't find that everywhere. The conclusion of the album with a slowed version of "Paranoid" should be viewed as a bonus track, like the "I'm a Marionette" cover on Ghost's Infestissumam. While slower, it fits the rest of the album, and I'd much rather hear someone attempt to make a cover their own than just hearing the same song replayed. Exhausting Fire is among my favorites for this year. The album sounds great through my personal stereo and feels amazing live. How man metal bands use a theremin on stage?
Sam Dunn made that dope Metal Documentary they played on VH1. He's a cool dude.
Can you do a track review of Angels by Chance The Rapper
Review Fuzz - II please? c:
Felt the same way about the Sabbath cover... Which is weird because I love Black Sabbath.
The 7s are strong with this one...
Could you review an artist named divine's✨ Ep? You'll most likely find it on soundcloud. Maybe on UA-cam.

Review G.O.D.
Anthony, pls review my comment, let me know what you think of it. Thank you God bless.
This album was terribly boring, miss their sludgier days
+Rémi Gauthier agree, Im tired of every sludge metal band becoming boring shit, baroness and mastodon have gone down the same road..........
Victor Dominguez that's pretty arguable, both baroness and mastodon pulled it their transitions off better
I disagree, mastodons new album has been complete shit, baroness's yelllow and green wasnt THAT bad but the singles Ive heard off the purple album have been pretty crappy as well
*Sit on the heavier side of the spectrum*. Oh hey that's what my doctor said to me the other day !
Bernie Sanders 2016 yo
