if you can appreciate the shoegaze/black metal hybrid thing, this is a perfect album. it's unbelievable. it's like isis and the smiths got together and smoked tweeds listening to darkthrone. i can't think of many albums that i've heard in the last few years that have such an anticipatory yet relaxing feeling. i feel really agitated and relaxed at the same time with each listen. it's haunting.
Hmmm, this I might want to check out. I just did a youtube search and found this beautiful piece of music by them:
Other stuff I have been listening to:
Ariel Pink's Before Today album
The Drums' self titled album
Jag Panzer's Scourge of the Light album
The Tallest Man on Earth's Wild Hunt album
Ratatat's Drugs song
I don't know if I mentioned it in this thread already, but I'm also loving Glasser's Ring album. There's a cool guy on youtube named Anthony Fantana but he uses the name The Needledrop. I've been finding some great music thanks to him
