ARTIFICIAL BRAIN - Celestial Cyst (official audio)

[@bwoodward93]

Can’t even express how I’ve longed for this. Absolutely crushing so far. Can’t wait to hear the rest.

[@MigueUgartechea]

Fantano said it's like a tech death take on the Super Metroid OST, and I get it. Epic.

Good morning artificial brain!

[@samuelhernandez1081]

It is my first time listening to this band and the truth is that they are incredible, what a great job thanks guys.

[@BrandonIacovella]

Absolute magic. Gorgeous dissonance. Artificial Brain never ceases to amaze!

[@Metal555Fan]

BROOOOOOOOOOTHER!!

[@BrandonIacovella]

​@@Metal555Fan My man! You already know I'm all over this bro!

[@atthegates92]

Haven't been that hyped for a release in a long time.

[@franlovelsimic8421]

Absolutely vile, as expected! What I always loved about AB is how emotional their songs actually are. Jagged melancholy I guess. It's not immediately apparent perhaps but this always resonated with me. That being said, these riffs are... fuck man hahaha.

[@DevoutionAura]

Yes I also noticed this after listening to Estranged From Orbit. Also pretty melancholic probably my fav from them, I don't know the lyrics but from the title of the song, I think this is about a planet being flung out of the suns orbit somehow, hurls through the solar system. In the song at 4:16 this is where the planet crosses the boundary between the solar system and interstellar space, this howling noise come in and everyone on the planet laments their fate. Man i love artificial also bought the tab book to learn some of those crazy riffs haha

[@dzanci1]

The closest thing I can think of that has that same emotional impact is the last album from Ulcerate. I hope that one day I get the chance to see these bands live, preferably at the same show haha. Cant wait for this new album to drop!

[@franlovelsimic8421]

@@dzanci1 saw Ulcerate live in 2018, went there solo and man where they good! Also agree regarding their latest, similar sense of desolation but for me Ulcerate are devoid of this "longing" whereas AB have semblance of it. In any case I am mega excited for the new album!

[@darrellwinter9487]

I haven't heard something this good since Ulcerate's last album, Stare Into Death And Be Still. So perfect.

[@the6ig6adwolf]

If you want something good check this out Eximperitus - Sahrartu

[@franlovelsimic8421]

Oof that's a great one but Afterbirth, Archspire, Suffering Hour and Ad Nauseam dropped amazing albums last year! In any case I'm just glad we're getting so much good music.

Celestial Cyst Lyrics Descendants of the last surviving humans Grown now having never known the world that's gone A scar they all must wear upon their face A map to a constellation out in space Carved with an arrow down to the marrow Carved with an arrow down to the marrow Ancient maps from the sky When the world was destroyed The stars came back into their vision, giving them wisdom

So much feeling and emotion, yet still brutal as all shit! That’s why I love this band!

[@dylanberes9487]

One of the most incredible two guitar attacks of any metal band ever. The stuff going on during the main 7/4 section is absolutely crushing and next level. Need headphones to appreciate the nuances here.

[@maaaaaap]

just from theory perspective, why do you count it as 7/4 instead of 7/8?

[@DavidKempe3]

@@maaaaaap I'm also keen for an answer to this.

[@XYGOGYX]

Damn, about time they made a new album! What a great year for music so far.

[@LogicallyKnot]

Damn man that took me somewhere else. I spaced out. Fucking epic. That back and forth was amazing. Felt like I was on a desolate planet staring into the abyss as a child. Fucking trippy. Definitely listening to this on repeat next time I'm getting big like Mario.

[@Pablo_25593]

I ordered it after the first listen. Infrared Horizon took me a few listens to fully appreciate it, but this one was a instant purchase.

[@UponThisAltar]

Wait, really? I genuinely think Estranged From Orbit is their best song.

[@Pablo_25593]

@@UponThisAltar I don't know haha. I got so into Labyrinth Constellation that the - let's say "change of vibe" - second album felt very different with the first 2 or 3 listens. I started enjoying the whole record after that. On the other hand, Estranged From Orbit ended up being my favourite (and also the first one I started practicing when I purchased the Tab Books) followed by Graveyard of Lightless Planets. Both are such bangers!

[@UponThisAltar]

@@Pablo_25593 I mean I do agree to an extent, because there certainly was a tonal shift between the two albums. Hell yes to learning Estranged first btw!

[@samt5396]

MIKE killed it!!! That was a really pleasant surprise, been jamming paradox earlier this week too.

[@MetalTrenches]

Yes please

[@AgainstTheeWickedlyMusic]

This sounds more like Deathspell Omega than the latest Deathspell Omega, and I'm all about it. This song is amazing. Beautifully dissonant, crushing, yet catchy, brutal, yet atmospheric. Love it, can't wait for the album!!

[@zlodrim9284]

"This sounds more like Deathspell Omega than the latest Deathspell Omega" It certainly does not, actually. Stop comparing everything dissonant to DsO.

[@AgainstTheeWickedlyMusic]

@@zlodrim9284 I compared litetally a single song to Deathspell. Portal sounds nothing like them, neither does Gorguts, and even Blut Aus Nord doesn't anymore. I just thought the intro sounded like them. Relax

[@zlodrim9284]

@@AgainstTheeWickedlyMusic I'm relaxed, your post still sucks though. Not only is your comparison off-base, you also got filtered by The Long Defeat.

[@AgainstTheeWickedlyMusic]

@@zlodrim9284 I hope you don't expect me to take your point seriously, considering the best thing you can say is "Your post sucks". And for the record, The Long Defeat has grown on me a lot, I made this comment after my first listen, but there is no questioning that it sounds a lot different

[@zb695]

Calm down, I was joking when I said, that with Samuel Smith having put out an album with Aeviterne and a sign of life from Luminous Vault within a week or so, that the new AB would be around the corner. Lo and behold. I am amazed and very happy.

Noice.

[@VN_Kazakov]

What if you take the base of melancholic European black metal, with its inherently viscous, raw weakly-readable minor sound, and cross it with a progressive, adjusted to, inherently professional little things, mixing, construction and death metal approach? Unrelenting sorrow, gloomy low tone of guitars and vocals. You might say that there are a lot of similar underground projects, but this is another case. The recording is of extremely studio quality, and the approach to the presentation of the material is far from garage-like. So sincere, in its conceptuality and quality, the music can be born only in side-projects and only in the collective obsession of fanatics.
