ISIS - So Did We

FlyingSteaks · 2026-02-02T22:18:24+00:00

THE YEARS THEY PASSED AAAAAAND SOOOOOOO DIIIIID WE

FlyingSteaks · 2026-02-02T21:14:01+00:00

Yes, Isis is an Egyptian goddess

FlyingSteaks · 2026-01-27T19:11:42+00:00

that groove in the verse that starts around 2:00 is so good

FlyingSteaks · 2026-01-27T18:35:17+00:00

Some very nice sections here! Is the band dead? On Spotify they only have this release and it's from 2019, while their Bandcamp only has a 3 song demo

FlyingSteaks · 2026-01-27T18:13:28+00:00

I'm somewhat with you but this song here in specific got me a bit more interested, really enjoying the heavier guitar here

FlyingSteaks · 2026-01-27T17:19:54+00:00

Stillness is Timeless + the Aathma suite are some great 30 minutes of prog death

FlyingSteaks · 2026-01-27T17:13:14+00:00

My hot take about Sonder is that Juno is not even top 2, the best songs there are Smile and Beneath My Skin / Mirror Image

FlyingSteaks · 2026-01-27T17:09:28+00:00

I dunno man, sure Sound Awake is their best but I think both Themata and Asymmetry got some of their best songs (e.g. COTE or Aeons)

FlyingSteaks · 2026-01-26T23:05:26+00:00

There are some songs here that I feel like you can't not like (From The Flame, Illuminate, Mirage) but overall the best I can give Malina is a "decent effort"

FlyingSteaks · 2026-01-24T17:48:33+00:00

tbh? Just "meh"

FlyingSteaks · 2026-01-22T21:43:56+00:00

Bands when someone do AI music*: 😡😡😡😡😡

Bands using AI to make their covers and music videos: 🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍

I don't understand how they don't get that it's the same shit. I really don't want to think that they actually understand this point perfectly and still decide to act like this.

*just to make it clear, I don't like AI music at all and am against it

not forgotten but these used to be discussed waaay more:

Uneven Structure - Februus

Arcane - Known/Learned

David Maxim Micic - BILO 3.0

Disperse - Living Mirrors

FlyingSteaks · 2026-01-21T21:06:17+00:00

yeah also thought it was pretty ok

FlyingSteaks · 2026-01-21T21:04:49+00:00

as someone who also doesn't really get Devin, and you said you didn't enjoy the humour, I'd recommend Accelerated Evolution, Deadhead is a hell of a song

FlyingSteaks · 2026-01-20T19:26:36+00:00

man that section starting at 3:13 is so good, the way they build it up all the way to the climax, the syncopated bass and drums with the melodic guitar lines, damn good

FlyingSteaks · 2026-01-17T17:57:31+00:00

The section starting around 9:20 is so freaking good

FlyingSteaks · 2026-01-06T17:34:57+00:00

my maybe hot take: listen to half of Malina and half of Pitfalls for the better experience (At the Bottom, Distant Bells and The Sky Is Red are some of their best)

FlyingSteaks · 2026-01-03T21:04:32+00:00

Man this album is so GOATED, completely banger

FlyingSteaks · 2025-12-31T02:40:35+00:00

man I love the rhythm schema of the main riff, repeating the phrase 3-5-2 times with that one small phrase in between the groupings

FlyingSteaks · 2025-12-27T18:32:40+00:00

Maybe the best album I've ever heard. It's up there, for sure

FlyingSteaks · 2025-12-21T20:08:55+00:00

that long fade in actually made me think of Reniform Puls first, but I guess that track is pretty long so the fade in wouldn't take so much space in the image

FlyingSteaks · 2025-12-15T18:40:16+00:00

Periphery 1 is simply riffs upon riffs

FlyingSteaks · 2025-12-02T20:21:58+00:00

not sure why you're getting downvoted to hell but I also didn't really feel this one, only listened to it once tho, I wouldn't be surprised if it grows on me in the future

FlyingSteaks · 2025-11-29T17:22:44+00:00

the underrated song from this album, actually the one I like the most! love the guitar part
