Is this the new trend since Nachtmystium got mainstream acclaim for "Meddle"?

Actually, The Corpse Of Rebirth was originally released before Nachtmystium did it. So, :cool: Check them out, great band.

Very interesting; like what I hear on the myspace. Is that a cockernee accent I hear?

Anyway, like the review says they sound a lot more like Wolves in the Throne room than someone like Nachtmystium... It also reminds me of the also-British Fen.

I've had the new track from the new album on repeat for about 8 times now. From the myspace stuff: I hear Drudkh, I hear WITTR, I certainly hear Fen and Alcest too.

Kudos to the MDB violinist for leaving that grand old beast for something new, risky, and invigorating.

Vocals are a bit irritating, but as with Jarost Marksa, they are passable when great music is involved. And it is not like BM is about vocals!

Quite cool stuff, forgot I had this.

Is anyone else unsure whether it's a good or bad thing when someone says "This band sounds like Wolves in the Throne Room"?

Yes, of course, as I am ambivalent towards them. But most seem to like/love them.

I enjoyed Diadem of 12 Stars when it was released, but this NWOHBM I'm not so sure about.
