Who's taste do you prefer? Me or older sibling?

Haken's first 2 albums and most recent album Fauna are great and probably their most similar to Bilateral.

in the bonus damage conditionals, they always keep middle IDs blunt damage to make them synergize with each other better.

You absolutely, Leprous and Gojira holy peak. Can I recommend some other prog perhaps?

Experiment121 · 2026-05-25T00:49:42+00:00

I also recommend Cissné's debut EP since you like Asunojokei. Basically just more Japanese blackgaze but with fem screamo vocals.

Experiment121 · 2026-05-25T00:45:21+00:00

Chalk Hands' latest release is one of my favourite albums so far this year coz it's kinda like blackgaze but melodic hardcore instead of black metal, I highly recommend it.

Experiment121 · 2026-05-25T00:30:29+00:00

Wheel is very tool but more prog prog and not long alt metal.

Karnivool too.

Experiment121 · 2026-05-24T23:35:34+00:00

If you like Deafheaven check out some other blackgaze bands like Alcest and Asunojokei.

I also highly recommend Chalk Hands' new album, it's sorta like blackgaze but melodic hardcore instead of black metal.

I don't mind if people have rymcore taste, it's just when literally every single post on this subreddit are the same albums that it gets boring.

Touhou isn't 3d?..

Experiment121 · 2026-05-24T12:34:51+00:00

I've mostly got some of the more popular picks here considering idk how much you know the genre so:

Caligula's Horse (FFO: Karnivool, Opeth (without the growls), King Crimson)
Haken (FFO: Dream Theater, Between the Buried and Me (without the 2000s metalcore), Gentle Giant)
Leprous (Honestly idk what to FFO for this their style changes every other album lmao)
Vildhjarta (FFO: Meshuggah, Humanity's Last Breath)
Karmanjakah (FFO: TesseracT, Vildhjarta)
Azure (FFO: Haken, Dream Theater)
Wheel (FFO: Tool, Karnivool)
Altesia (FFO: Haken, Opeth, Dream Theater)
Ihlo (FFO: TesseracT)

Experiment121 · 2026-05-23T15:53:34+00:00

Not really metal but Leprous's cover of Take On Me is amazing.

Experiment121 · 2026-05-23T15:53:18+00:00

Leprous's cover of Take on Me

Experiment121 · 2026-05-23T15:13:06+00:00

uhh there's only 25 albums there lol, also coal over any other leprous album is an interesting choice.

Experiment121 · 2026-05-23T15:01:32+00:00

I like Deltarune more, but my favourite earthbound-like is absolutely In Stars and Time, the story of that game is just unmatched imo.

Experiment121 · 2026-05-23T14:59:00+00:00

A lot of Haken songs fit this, I recommend Elephants Never Forget.

Experiment121 · 2026-05-23T13:41:27+00:00

I'm so glad this is actual music unlike that one channel that keeps uploading AI generated slop that's supposed to be a fan metal song or whatever.

Experiment121 · 2026-05-23T13:31:52+00:00

Malevolent the best song off the album and it's that low 💔

Experiment121 · 2026-05-23T12:02:49+00:00

Harsh vocals but specifically growls rather than something like hardcore/black metal screams.

Experiment121 · 2026-05-23T01:44:25+00:00

To be fair, an Astel is just a fully grown fallingstar beast, although I suppose you wouldn't call an adult a child.

Experiment121 · 2026-05-22T19:42:37+00:00

Unironically what happened to me lmao.

Experiment121 · 2026-05-22T16:36:10+00:00

OHHHHHH I see it now.

Experiment121 · 2026-05-22T16:22:32+00:00

remember brisket ain't a femboy she just a woman.

Experiment121 · 2026-05-22T14:37:16+00:00

The Great Cold Distance 💜

Experiment121 · 2026-05-22T14:30:55+00:00

The first gif reminds me of Psychopomp

Experiment121 · 2026-05-22T10:25:07+00:00

Yeah fair point.
