Antagonic Omnipotent Catharsis - ... Onwards the Path to Antagony (2006)


US black metal with strong folk elements. A homemade-sounding EP (it's a little over half an hour) of majestic, mostly instrumental, multi-part epics with some truly breathtaking guitar work. Obviously, a warm, fuzzy home recording is never gonna bother me, but I really think this guy could do a lot with a small budget and access to a recording studio.

Track listing:
1. Genesis
2. Endymion
3. Mightiest Under the Moon
4. Alarum Within
5. Stella Viae

Because the sunlight is powerless against me. My rivers and seas are frozen with Christian blood and my throne is the forest's heart. My blood is the serpent's poison. The wolves are that force which roams my kingdoms... the wolves, the wolves are my only now disciples.

  2. Well, what he needs is not to record in a studio, but to learn to use his home studio better.
    Here the example (all done in a home studio):

    1. Not sure why you think is a joke, but some more artists who record at their home studios.

  4. Thanks for this post and for promoting my music. Been thinking on re-recording this properly with a better production. Never meant for this to get much attention so I did not care about the sound at the time.
