90s demo tapes hit different though. The crustiness really enhances the overall atmosphere of certain genres.
Ysigim - Ain Soph Or (1994) is a personal favorite. They did a digital rerelease recently and it's too clean, I don't like it.
Guys, I think I found the guy in the meme
Yes and I will judge anyone who doesn't recommend me their favorite demo tape
Here are a couple of my favs:
https://www.metal-archives.com/albums/Majak/The_Claws_of_the_Red_Crown/1099606 Not my favourite music, but the tape came with a dead wasp wrapped in a little piece of paper. 😁 Also it’s limited to 60 copies.
Just looked it up on YouTube and someone in the comments called it "magick metal". I've been out of the metal scene for a while now but I see the tradition of inventing goofy names for subgenres is still going strong lol
inb4 Taylor Swift
Taylor swift is way too heavy for me. I respect people who like her but the wiggles are about as heavy as I go
The Wiggles?
Too heavy for me.
Too late
Some blackened doom vibes here. Like some old school Bell Witch.
Absolutely! There are many remasters nowadays, which always feel too clean to me, too.
My personal recommendation: Tyrant - Rise of the Fallen (1998)
Very nice, thanks. Love the sound of the cymbals.
I appreciate the recommendation. I’ve found some new music to listen to!
