Very personal and highly expressive, both them and The Mount Fuji Doomjazz Corporation. Bohren und der Club of Gore, on the other hand, have never really captured me, although I acknowledge the beauty of their music; I don't know Kammerflimmer kollektif, I'll look them up... anyway, fantastic album, maybe their best.

One of the best groups in the "new" metal scene, they have never disappointed so far. Compared to Heliocentric, I find it a bit less inspired, but it still devours a good portion of the various releases from the numerous post-metal-rock bands out there. @Aerosiphon: the problem, in my opinion, isn’t so much about tackling themes like these (I personally find it fascinating and it only shows this band’s commitment to making quality stuff), but rather how they are addressed... the risk could be that when faced with such important and vast topics, there’s a danger of oversimplifying and trivializing them, perhaps to uphold the facade of tough, pure metalheads who are angry at the church at all costs. For example, anthropocentrism has very little to do with Christianity as such... but to assess it better, I would need to read all the lyrics of the album.

Really a great review, you have sparked quite a bit of curiosity in me.

It's always a pleasure to read you: even in your reviews, there's a taste of truth. I'm not familiar with the reviewed artist, but I'll give them a listen. Regards :)

Cool title!

Towards the end, when Donald Duck wakes up from the nightmare, the shadow of the Statue of Liberty is projected on the wall, but it looks like Hitler's... this detail struck me, especially considering everything that has been silenced about the real interests of the United States in entering the war and its future politics. Excellent review and grandiose Donald Duck giving the Nazi salute with his backside!

Seventy-four years and not feeling them...

Great suggestion, the review piqued my curiosity. I will also look for the last three groups mentioned by Imasoulman. By the way, does AMM stand for something?

...I have always thought that Mozart's Requiem, precisely because of its incomplete nature, is a work that truly aims for something infinite, almost for another dimension, not necessarily otherworldly and metaphysical, but simply its own. It's as if Mozart wanted to continue living through time, leaving a crack open that the Requiem can completely widen and that death cannot close. I also see it as a "blessing" for all future music, almost wanting to engage and play with all the music that is yet to be written... in this sense, I absolutely agree when you mention all those artists who in some way share the same vision of the Requiem. Apologies for this lengthy exposition, but the review struck me profoundly. Among my favorites.

"I'm waiting and hoping for a response"...congratulations on the review. Truly.
