vacant planet
both tracks in this split are phenomenal. the track from Unreqvited is surprisingly groovy and heavy while Asunojokei puts another excellent piece of post-hardcore tinged black metal.
Favorite track: Nocturne I: Deadmoon.
Bugbear Brigand
This EP is absolutely beautiful. Both tracks are amazing. The clean riff @1:30 on Stardust makes me want to pilot an EVA and crush half the world lmao.
Favorite track: Nocturne II: Stardust.
僕と似た星屑
とてもきれいな花の名前も
とても大きな魚影の行方も
忘れてしまった僕の面影よ
真昼の名残がある天幕から抜け出しても
あの光景はまぶたの裏に
蟻の運ぶ洞窟
潮だまりにたゆたう賢者の亡骸
見上げればぞっとするほど青い空
闇へ捨てられた孤独の群れは
尽きて落ちるまでどこへも行けない
背の熱は冷たい惑星に遊ばせて
彼らに語りかける
そんな場所にいて怖くない
きっと僕なら一人じゃいられない
泣き出しそうな心は月の裏側に隠して
僕らが消えても何も変わらない世界に対する麻酔を探そう
知れば知るほど視界が鮮明になる
不安の正体と共に
かつての気持ちを置去りにして
彼らと僕を重ね合わせなくなったとき
神様の命乞いが聞こえた
とても大きな時の流れも
とても小さな夜空の光も
行き着く先はきっと変わらない
それまではこの感傷を
Stardust
My shadow,
the reminiscence of a very beautiful flower, and
even the whereabouts of a very large fish shadow,
All forgotten.
Even if I get out of the tent in the midst of noon,
that sight remains in the back of my head.
The cave ants carry the corpse of a wise man floating in a tide.
As I look up, the sky becomes scary to look at.
Shrouds of loneliness abandoned in the darkness,
can't go anywhere until they dissipate.
I lay on my back and let its heat seep into the ground,
while I confront my loneliness.
Aren't you afraid to be in such a place?
Surely I am not the only one.
Hiding my heart which cries behind the moon,
I'll look for anesthesia for this world.
A world where when we disappear, nothing changes.
The more I know, the clearer I see
The clearer I see, the more anxious I become.
I hear God's plea to me
To leave my feelings of the past,
and to stop them from overlapping myself with them.
Even as so much time flows by,
even the smallest light of night sky remains,
and the destination will surely stay the same.
I'll hold this sentiment until it changes.

With their deviant kind of Black Metal, White Ward are far away from mediocre. If you’re looking for something different and sophisticated try these guys! You won‘t be disappointed! Sælzer Bub
I’ve owned the Imperfect disc for a bit now, but had slept on the rest of the material, with the exception of Disquiet, until now. Much different than my normal dissonant, occult sound fare, but everything Unrequited creates is bursting at the seams with power and emotion. Respect and support. Slug.
The San Francisco quartet’s latest effort takes their post-metal to atmospheric new heights, with a resultant sound bordering on the transdimensional. Bandcamp Album of the Day Sep 20, 2018
