    Their upcoming album is probably going to be AOTY for me. The singles have been simply AMAZING

    manual is a true artist and he knows you can't give that thought too much power because it kills the art, he is just hitting his stride and not worried about the ego. Love Z&A and birdmask, amazing shit so glad I found it

    Went to a Zeal and Ardor show this year after seeing them open for Meshuggah and it's the best show I've ever been to, the new album is AOTY and these guys are fantastic.

    BLACK METAL as a genre never ceases to surprise & break boundaries.
    Who'd imagine that a unique Band would meld the BLACK (literally) tradition of the soul& blues with METAL'S most revolutionary&blasphemous trend.
    All hail ZEAL & ARDOR ✊🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🔥🇧🇷🏴🖤

    You can tell he's a smart guy and has put a lot of thought into this stuff. Exactly the type of person that deserves success because he didn't sacrifice his vision to get there.

      @@geniuserisloci2027 something about typing your opinions instead of saying them out loud inspires people to turn everything to the nines. you cant just dislike a work, it has to be evil, degenerate, molesting your kids, etc.
      The music is incredible though, almost makes the weirdos bearable.

      Gotta agree with the previous commentator, the singing is what really gives zeal and ardor their unique sound that is so refreshing! Don’t get me wrong, I love the high pitch vocals, but there are tons of great bands that do that, so it’s nice to see a band that experiments out!
