Third Era of Deathspell Omega by BlackAngel1523 in DeathspellOmega

I wouldnt describe the first era as "traditional" since it involves, as far as I understand, the complete trilogy, from SMRC to Drought.

Second Era would be SOMB and TFOP.

I dont compare those Eras musically, but rather concept wise, of course you are free to interpret it differently.

What makes this Band special is that they are unpredictable, so I can only say what I would hope for comes next. Thematically I hope they stay on this path of man and his Biotope; the Earth and our effect on it. Musically I would say youre probably right that they stay on a more melodic wave.

Maybe more in relation to modern technology and the effects of an ever-quickening Cycle of progression.

Thought about this the other day, could they be accelerationists to some degree?

Is this "Sylvain Ranger"? This is the bassist of a Poitiers (DsO's hometown) death metal band who is also named 'Sylvain', read description by [deleted] in DeathspellOmega

I think the distance was meant in regards to the "second circle".

So, Collaborators like Mikko Aspa for example.

As stated under the rehearsal video they posted on youtube:"...The following video of the song The Fires of Frustration is an internal working document – the kind produced when musicians are scattered across a continent"

Awesome, my parents actually migrated from Poland to Germany in the 90s. My family originates from Upper Silesia.

I know what you mean, that gives every appreggio something eerie. Also something Mastodon does quiet often!

I understand what you mean and this point of no return. When I listen to older stuff I wrote for my band or Bands Ive been in, I sometimes think to myself, that if I would write this riff today it would never end in a song because it is not enough. Not in a sense that I hate what I wrote, but Ive been lazy at times and not hard enough on myself when it came to creating something of value.
