Even if We Never Existed by Cold Empty Universe QUICK before you do anything else download it here for free first Phew ok now that you did that.. Tracklist 1. Even if We Never Existed 2. You Must Live Here Do Not Kill Yourself I've had a ridiculously difficult time deciding which album to put here. I figured I should pick a black metal album, and the last few months has probably been the best stretch for bmetal albums this decade. So choosing one was less than easy. So anyway I picked Even if We Never Existed, which isnt even on BEA because ive been lazy and havent updated my chart in forever. CEU's general sound can basically be described as "space black metal". They lie somewhere in between the likes of Darkspace and Oranssi Pazuzu. Less massive and dense than the former and less psychedelic than the latter. And this newest album is likely their most horrifying album to date. The first track has a kind of Gnaw their Tongues-esque atmosphere where all of these sounds are bouncing off the walls of a confined space. Who knows where those muffled screams are coming from. Sometimes they sound like they’re calling for help, other times you’re unsure if they’re even human. Cattle locked in a slaughterhouse. The second track is a little more blunt. Eerie organs, distant howls; basically the foyer of a haunted mansion. Then comes the sweet serenade. Like trying to find a scent, it entices you to follow. But you know where it’s going..

Finally listened to this.

The atmosphere this album created was incredible. Super creepy, weird, really well done. Unfortunately, the album drags a little. I get that their going for an ambient kind of thing, but it just went on a little too long with not enough variety for me. Production was awesome, composition, not as much. A decent album.
