DAWNFALL Drei Raume CD (Supernal) 11.98More "black metal" weirdness from the excellent Supernal label, whose latest CDs from Benighted Leams, Meads of Asphodel, Contra Ignem Fatuum, and Dark Ages all grace this week's C-Blast update. Dawnfall is more of the utterly bizarre, stumbling, mind melting "metal" that Supernal specializes in, and this album might just be the weirdest disc that we've gotten from them so far. The album starts off with three 11+ minute epics of twisted, confusing midtempo black metal with beyond-anguished vocals amidst the knotted arrangements of sideways drumming, fuzzed-to-oblivion guitar freakout, Nintendo-ish keyboard squiggle that's all over the freaking place, all colliding into each other, a confusing, hallucinogenic mess. Awesome! Drei Raume continues with weird synthesized harpsichords over blackened electronica, psychedelic vocal/beat abstractions, and warped, warbly synthesizer ambience melted over long drones. The disc ends with a sudden blast of freakish carnival Casio music. Very cool! The whole album kinda reminds us of a black metal Infidel?/Castro!. Sort of.
