Were marketing professionals involved when they settled on the genre label “depressive black metal”?

I organized a release for them a few years ago (did the artwork, the mixing and mastering). Nice guys, and I really like what they do. Not sure how that stuff fits into what’s going on here; they put a huge emphasis on that home recording, DIY aesthetic, witha spoonful off blackletter for good measure.

He knows no change is permanent, but change is.

“Battle of the Bands” might prove to be an evergreen thread, easily eclipsing any previous or subsequent OI comment thread, inclusive of other Chaos Patches…

D n’ B never infected my brain. Never got into the associated drugs? It was a real in-group music at school?

In retrospect, stand-alone, it’s ok. I can see where you’re coming from: cyber-dark-edgy etc.

What about dark-shoe-gaze? Probably the closest I get to your zone. ‘Have a Nice Life’ released ‘Death Consciousness’ a few years ago. Think it is just one guy(!).

And I’m surprised no one has mentioned ‘The Dillinger Escape Plan’. That is the machine speaking right there! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zv8b6RPbnAc

@fotrkd

Minus the vocals, I really like that.

Here’s a list of bands I think you might like:

Maserati
The Mercury Program
Russian Circles
Grails
The Appleseed Cast
The Black Heart Rebellion
Circle Takes The Square
Explosions In The Sky…

Haha. More to come if they float your boat!
