What is with these bands that feel that the vocals should be all over the song? The way I see it, the instrumental parts are of vital importance in the crafting of a song. It is the air the music needs in order to breath.
Black metal is plagued by bands like that.
I remember how disappointed I was when I first heard Verivala's Voittomme. The vocals are everywhere chocking the music and the result is inaudible, at least for me. Thankfully things are better on the new record.
The ouroboros is reaching its tail again:
Azaghal - Teraphim
Abhorrer - Zygotical Sabbatory Anabapt
Shever - Ocean Of Illusion
The Beast of the Apocalypse - A Voice from the Four Horns of the Golden Altar
The Gun Club - Mother Juno
