Blood Incantation - Hidden His blah blah blah

[Azrael]

That new Blood Incantation is getting tons of attention. It's sold over 4,000 copies since it came out. Our drummer mentioned it at practice Saturday so I finally checked it out this morning.

It's ok I guess. Sounds a lot like Incantation, which is pretty ballsy considering they used the word Incantation in their own name. The artwork looks pretty cool, looks like the art Hypocrisy wanted for the Arrival. The second song "The Giza Power Plant" was a LITERAL Ancient Aliens episode. That made me laugh my ass off. They straight up got stoned and watched some History Channel and started lifting concepts for their record. It even had a long Egyptian musical scale interlude which wasn't even half as good as anything Nile has been doing for 20 years. The last track is the 18 minute song. I turned it off once it got to the EXACT SAME modulated keyboard Pink Floyd uses on the song Time. There's a lot of shallow and derivative ideas on this record.

In closing say 4/10. If you enjoy it have fun.

Although I have nothing against shallow and derivative ideas, this doesn't make much of an impression. In any case, I prefer Spectral Voice.

re: blood incantation, the demos are great and i liked starspawn, but i definitely have no stake in all the hype. i'll probably pick it up the next time i order from dark descent, but it's not on my shortlist.

I just wanted to come give an honest review. This is NOT the kind of thing a person wants to post on FB. Negative opinions don't fare well in that Echo Chamber of a website.

I'm going to report you to your drummer and record labels.

The buzz died pretty quickly. I haven't bothered to listen to it again since the week it came out. Just too much better shit already out there/coming out.
