Old Silver Key - Burnt Letters

[ziasun11]

could it be?? Alcest and Drudkh in one? my life is complete.

[35niv]

Maybe Thurios and Roman should stick to concentrating on writing a better Drudkh album after Handful of Stars compared to this...

[kvltdvl666]

@35niv They are, and apparently its a return to their roots

[windswept23]

great!

[nixeverafter]

This song is soooo beautiful. I'm jealous about Neige's vocals =P hahahaha he's a genious.

[Migas128]

they already released the teaser of the video :D

[JBonesxa]

Just found out that this is another band consisting of Roman and Thurios and others from Drudkh, Hate Forest, Blood of Kingu, etc. 

No harsh vocals?

The music is alright, but I don't really like clear vocals. I like them harsh and mean. The music I'd like a little heavier too but hey thats just me.

[requiem4sorrow]

@JBonesxa Your missing the point of being a metal head, use some insight. \m/ \m/

[JBonesxa]

@requiem4sorrow What the hell are you talking about?

I don't like the vocal style. Thats just my personal preference. Its got nothing to due with being a "metal head".

[Migas128]

the probably gonna make a videoclip! :D

they said that in their facebook page ^___^ YEAAAAAH!

[f4ftantum]

where can i find lyrics



[Migas128]

"if you liked, buy it!"

...

i will my friend...my fucking god i ned a music player with 1000GB cuz i got no more memory in my music player cuz of so many songs lol

[Migas128]

if i assault a bank the first thing i do is spend all my money in metal albums

[dunkelheit616]

The album was a little disappointing. Guess i was expecting too much... I mean Alcest + Drudkh should be breathtaking beyond words, considering their previous material. This didn't really work out :( maybe it's a grower?

[Tigrousauteur]

dispensable...

[katatonified]

This has kind of a "Brave murder day- Katatonia" feeling in it, except for the clean vocals. Have to buy the album as soon as possible.

[PossessWithin]

It's very well produced but it could be better.

[Herbstseele]

I am listening to the album for the first time right now. What I expected was epic, what I got was kind of mediocre to me. Dunno if it gets better after a few listens.

[TheLacke]

YES !!!!! NEIGE IS THE MASTER !!!

[kevenzz]

I found it quite average.... these guys sure have changed their sound since Hate Forest - Scythia in 1999......

Also it wound be better just instrumental without those boring vocals..... anyone can sing with such monotone voice.

[louiscfc93]

@kevenzz Are you joking ? Anyoing can sing in that monotone voice ? Anyone can do vocals as they are in Drudkh and Hate Forest. Not many people can sing like Neige. Also this isnt Hate Forest. Hate Forest never changed anything about the music.

[EnkerSS]

looking forward for the album!

[JadeCurtiss34]

This somehow reminds me a bit of Katatonia in their Brave Murder Day/Sound of Decay Period. Only with clean Vocals. Very nice. Gonna check there Album as soon as possible.

[Mezuglh]

Best album 2011?

Yes.

[frostycadaver]

será que thurios fará participação nos vocais tb?

[frostycadaver]

neige + drudkh = parceria épica!!

[GRIGORIA666]

This was what the instrumentals on Handful of Stars shouldve sounded like. Im hoping Roman will have some vocal parts on the album!

[vikolins]

Why hasn't this leaked yet? I DO WANT IT BADLY

[ajtsok93]

You can feel the Drudkh riffs around 1:00

[mrkulade]

@ajtsok93 Sooo true!

[vercruysse1988]

just orded this cd, can't wait for this epic cd

[Raptor2G]

As far as I'm concerned, this is metal as fuck. Screw the haters. Blackgaze needs no changing or reinventing.

[fengkehli]

@SuperZepto Not only neige, Drudkh is one of the best fucking bands ever existed!

[sonnensalz667]

drudkh music is great as always, neige's so called 'clean singing' is terrible as always, too.

[DonDog123]

Black Metal+Post-Rock+Shoegaze=EPIC!­

[BuzzmFrog]

I don't get why so many people hate the latest Drudkh. They went outside of their style a bit......but it's great music. If you need something really intense by the same people, listen to Blood of Kingu. Either way, I'm sure Drudkh will continue to make awesome albums.

[9393np]

how do you get this song? o_O

[Zackahrias]

Haha, people think Neige is the mastermind behind every project he's involved with, I guess. I mean, he only wrote one song in Peste Noire and people go around saying it's his band.

This song is pretty solid. Heaps better than anything off the last Drudkh album at least. Actually think I enjoyed it more than most of Alcest's stuff as well, to be quite quite honest. Definitely checking out the album when it drops.

[TheKarelian]

Why not make a decent new Drudkh cd in stead ...

[alphaknave]

@TheKarelian keep up with the news; they are doing that as well

[TheKarelian]

@alphaknave How do you know it's going to be decent?

[alphaknave]

@TheKarelian cause you like penises

[TheKarelian]

@alphaknave I rest my case

[Shoegazeblackmetal]

A very intresting track as a fan of both artist I am looking forward to this record.

[FLIPPITYFLOOP]

Fuck...this is so awesome...now there's TWO albums for me to look forward to in September. New Taake, and Old Silver Key...I can't wait. :)

[FLIPPITYFLOOP]

I remember when I first heard about OSK, I heard about the collaboration and thought to myself "I don't even have to listen to this before buying. This will be an instant masterpiece." ....well I was right. This is absolutely amazing.

The only thing I hope to see on this album is some of Neige's screaming as well. I like his screams...or even a tad bit from either Romans...but even if neither of those are present, this album will still rule.

[IgnemAeternum]

People are negative about Neige because most of them are expecting some kind of metal. If you ever listened to Shoegaze (MBV,Slowdive,Ride and such), Post-Rock, Post-Punk, you would have more respect about his Music. Because he is clearly not doing anything for "metalheads". Sure some people may say Alcest and Amesoeurs have some black metal traits, but they are minor. Plus Neige is only on vocals here, everything else is done by Drudkh members, music, songwriting and such. Lovely song btw.

[TheHipsterholocaust]

@IgnemAeternum No real artist does anything for anyone but him or herself. I think his choosing to do whatever he pleases and angering elitists is great, it weeds out most of the people who can't appreciate his work. I love metal but I also love this.

[Mezuglh]

@IgnemAeternum

I agree with you, but I still wonder how many "not- into- metal- at- all" fans would like those shrieking black-metalish vocals on for example Bonheur Amputè or Percées De Lumière.

[schink24]

@IgnemAeternum Neige seems to simply plays music he enjoys, without caring what genre it falls in and who ends up listening to it.

[MoChiptune]

@IgnemAeternum

yes but on the other hand if you ever listened to black metal such as peste noire and early alcest you would be able to understand where niege is coming from .... no disrespect

great song

[zyniker88]

@MoChiptune Neige had no input towards Peste Noire.

[MoChiptune]

@zyniker88

that doesn't mean he did not participate in kpn .

[TruePesthond]

@zyniker88 La Césarienne ... written by Neige

[d6a6r6kness]

@IgnemAeternum if you gave neige a good listen you will deff hear the black metal his harsh vocals are amazing check his work in peste noire

[boneawl]

Production is a little weird.. maybe its the youtube?

[thylegion]

Sounds awesome so far.

[Kerros9292]

@FairiesFuckHumans People do this with Lantlos already so it shouldn't come as much of a surprise.

[tehpaweu]

id like to hear neige singing in ukrainian. that would be something, EHEH.

[DragosBCskater]

--> Saenko.

[CorporateNothing]

@FairiesFuckHumans We are in agreement. :)

[RealUKBlackMetal]

Boring as shit, as I knew it would be. No need to pay anymore attention to this project. I'll stick to early Drudkh and Amesoeurs seperately.

[FiabaDelGuerriero]

mmm I prefer when he sings in French, idk why. But this is nice, though

[CorporateNothing]

@FairiesFuckHumans Yes. Don't get me wrong, I love Alcest and Amesoeurs, but it annoys the fuck out of me how Neige gets so much credit for the work of others. Mortifera is Noktu's band, Peste Noire is Famine's band, Lantlos is Herbst's band, and so on. I'm sure Neige had some creative input to the songwriting, but this is still primarily a Drudkh side-project, not another "Neige band."

[railpressureflip]

@zombiemanfreak1 I fucking love Britney Spears, and I'm seeing Alcest live in October. So shut up, I can defend both if I want to.

[Nakasoul]

@railpressureflip You'll enjoy Alcest if you've never seen them. A truly majestic band!

[railpressureflip]

@Nakasoul Yeah I look forward to see Neige and his crew! :D

[Nakasoul]

@railpressureflip Neige is a really nice bloke, but a bit quiet.

[railpressureflip]

@Nakasoul Yeah sounds like he'd be quiet, if I may judge a little from the genres he plays! :P

[Tkka]

It's alright. I was really expecting something more.

[DeclareFreedom]

At first I thought it was boring but after listening a few more times I really think this is fucking beautiful... the music matches perfectly to Neige's voice. It's so simple and enchanting.

This is exactly what defines Neige's music, and what I like about it.

[DullestRecords]

i wanted to like this so bad, but this just sounds like boring alcest.

[Rokkross]

@DullestRecords And alcest is boring...how?

[riric666]

Good cocktail

[wutsein]

I was expecting more than this.

[lordduluthian]

Gay whiny estrogen vocals.

[MalkavInside]

@lordduluthian

you are really an idiot, do you know?

[kaakoo]

Kind of shitty.

[Pakanahymni]

This is pretty darn nice.

[SomaticDefilement92]

LOVELYY!!!

[gogetfuckeddd]

Neige can do no wrong

[crusher013]

drudkh + neige, omfg... epic

[FireAboveIce]

<3 <3

[Arjya1]

Wow!!!!

[Kilgorin10]

Not bad at all!

[vinte88]

Amazing!!!

[caroliinaviana]

There are no words for such perfection. *-*
