Desperate Dreams
by Violet Cold
supported by 15 fans who also own “名無しの面影”
I just discovered Blackgaze last week thanks to Marunata, and I have to say Desperate Dreams gave me emotions and made me imagine things I never did before. I don't care about mixing synth/etc with metal, all I know is we are promised desperation and it delivers, unlike 99% of the other bands promising sadness, but depressing name songs aren't enough...After listening to this I just had to finally make an account, buy this, and get back to looking for gems, they still exist.

Mikolaj is a real multi-talent in bass as well as guitar as well as vocals and "Darkside" Maciej's drumming is a well-calibrated 100th-of-seconds-clockwork. Not for nothing is Mgla considered as a standard for a lot of other blacker-than-black metal bands. I hope to see this band live once.....

Tokyo band contrast black metal's brutal complexity with shoegaze's abyssal grandeur, resulting in an LP that feels crushing, yet infinite.

Altäre der Vergänglichkeit
by Wrack
Crushing blackened doom from this German band that counterbalances blinding fury with moments of surprising, melancholy melody.

Comme une impression que les meilleurs albums de Sadness sont ceux avec des arbres sur la pochette (je ne me suis jamais remis de l'interlude au piano de Wounded Solitude). La production sur Rain est très claire sauf pour la voix de Damián Antón Ojeda qui surgit par bourrasques, un peu comme celles qui arrivent pendant les périodes de pluies. Les instruments sont tous accompagnés d'une réverbération du plus bel effet. Rain est une libation et une inondation en même temps. Juste si émouvant...
