Pitaruah, by Prokontra 7 track album

#JustListened

The energy in this is quite something! I have even less of an idea what the lyrics say than usual, but the mix of south-east asian folk chord progressions and electronic beats is certainly effective.
It's really hard to sit still while listening to this!

Highly, highly recommended!

๐Ÿ‘ Both of them are amazing imho - hope you enjoy.

#NowPlaying

The epic of Gilgamesh, as told via 4 Metal bands? Now that sounds interesting!
I'm not familiar with any of these bands, but I, Voidhanger releases high quality music, so I'm definitively curious.

Going in!

This retelling of the the Epic Of Gligamesh by four experimental black metal band might be the most unhinged concept album I've ever heard. The two Swords Of Dis tracks, in particular, are INSANE. i-voidhangerrecords.bandcamp.com/album/from-t...

Done!
Usually, when Metal bands work with choirs, they want to make their sound bigger, more epic. This is not what this is. It feels grounded, compact and gritty. The singing is beautiful, the instrumentation heavy and looping effects provide a spacious feeling.

Highly, highly recommended!

Hi my friend, yeah it's so much better here than the other place. I hope you enjoy the album - I'm a huge fan of Raja Kirik and this is one of their best to date.
