Kostnatění's Úpal should be in The Infinte

First Post February 03, 2024 08:46 PM

There's very little doubt that Kostnatění's very solid sophomore album is a black metal release however I would argue that there's enough of a focus on presenting the genre in the most unusual fashion possible that it should qualify as Avant-Garde Metal too. The Deathspell Omega influence is obvious throughout & I can see a decent chunk of your more traditional black metal audience simply not being up to the dissonance & experimentation on offer here. For that reason, I'd like to see 'Úpal' added to The Infinite under the Avant-Garde Metal genre on top of its existing position in The North.
