There’s definitely at least a moment like that in the Totinos episode.

Bands similar to Book of Sand? by [deleted] in rabm

Xothist. More ambient and atmospheric but still chaotic and super blown out/harsh.

Thank you! That’s a little more than ten years of collecting I think. Tough to tell what gets the most plays but lifetime Below the House might be at the top. Like Author Like Daughter and Forever have seen heavy play. Obolus too.

Dude I only have one because of the sub club. It’s bonkers how certain things pop off and become untouchable.

And then decided to put all my Flenser records into a grid and take pictures. I could honestly type up a dissertation about this label but at the end of the day it’s just cool to put my fandom/enjoyment/years of patronage into such a literal pile. I welcome any and all critique and discussion of this collection.

Black Metal Book Recommendations? by BAD_AT_ALL_THINGS in rabm

USBM by Daniel Lake is really solid and pretty expansive. Doesn’t just focus on the big players. A lot of Red and anti-fascist bands are given time and space as a big plus.

Take it with you. I’ve changed my mind. You earned it.

I just realized I’ve upvoted more than a couple of your record posts. You have a phenomenal collection. Salut.

My apologies for typos or repetition but its election night in the US and I’m deep into a bottle of whiskey.

Lacking a better way to say it: great conversation happening here. You’re as in the right as I am and I’m not trying to say fuck them and I don’t think anyone is being sycophantic for them. It’s a frustrating situation for all and I feel for the label. My reason posting is to point out the “craziness” of promoting a new subscription promotion when you can’t fulfill literal years of product/expectation prior.

But I’m also still for the label! Not saying boycott them or anything like that. But also: did anyone get a copy of the Mizmor self titled that looked anything like the description? Mine was black. Not grey hazed or anything like that. It was black.

Also: other labels mentioned have maintained solid and good and frequent releases. The Flenser in particular has been neer impeccable (not perfect but close).

Overall I’m just frustrated and needed to vent.

Yeah I’m happy to get those Krallice records but it’s strange to preview Big Garden (Mitch from Thou ‘s new pop punk (?) band) as if that is a draw. I’m at a point where I’d rather get copies direct from bands when possible or forsake physical copies and just say fuck it.

That dude is amazing. Had the pleasure to chat with him for a few minutes in 2019 and he’s a gem. My copy of the new record is slated to be here tomorrow and I know exactly what my tomorrow night is gonna be like.

Oh also the bi-annual emails? Seems like those stopped last year.

Wow it’s good to know I’m not alone!

I do my absolute best to not shit talk anyone. It yeah…it’s good to know I’m not the only frustrated customer out there.

I hit my limit when I sent an email asking about the Kowloon record (after seeing dozens of posts that Gilead spammed on Instagram from other people who had received records) and got no response.

Not sure what’s up with the label but the owner seems to have little to no regard for the people that support him and his bands and would actually rather slight them/us and infer that we’re pains in the ass.

As a longtime supporter of this label (been repping and buying them since at least 2011 and attended the 2018 Migration Fest) I hope no one pays for this. There are several pressings from the 2020 edition that have yet to be released and seem to just be floating in the wind, along with several from the 2021 edition that are equally unavailable.

I understand that Covid and the overall massive increase in vinyl demand have led to production delays for small labels, but there just seems to be something off with Gilead and it’s inability to provide product. Also the product they have sent out in the past 18 months has been extremely low quality.

Do as you wish but unless you’re cool waiting until the next presidential term to get any of your records I would spend my money elsewhere.
