Aquilus - Australian black metal, very epic[views:2974][posts:20]_________________________________ [Dec 7,2012 10:29am - Mark R ""] Was pointed their way on another board and have been totally loving this. It is very majestic, soundtrack-like black metal. First two tracks, Nihil and Loss, won me over on the first listen. aquilus.bandcamp.com Recommended if you like (epic/neoclassical) black metal, film scores, Virgin Black, Summoning, Lacrimosa, Agalloch, etc Sound quality on this vid isn't as good as it should be, the bandcamp page is a better way to go. bennyhillifier |

| ________________________________ [Dec 7,2012 10:34am - Burnsy ""] Really digging this so far. I'm about halfway through Loss. Wish I had brought my good headphones to the office today. |
| ________________________________ [Dec 7,2012 10:50am - Burnsy ""] This is fuckin' solid, dude. Thanks for the recommendation. |
| ____________________________________ [Dec 7,2012 10:51am - arilliusbm ""] Good band. Aussie has a great scene right now. |
| ________________________________ [Jan 3,2013 11:25am - Burnsy ""] Been enjoying the new album a lot these past couple days. Considered getting a t-shirt until I saw the price. $43?! Really, dude? |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 3,2013 11:30am - arilliusbm ""] One time I spent $85 on a shirt.. and yes, I regret it. |

I spent close to $40 on one but that included shipping from Norway and the fact that the shirt was 20 euros. Worth it though, love the shirt. |

| ________________________________ [Jan 3,2013 12:01pm - Mark_R ""] that does seem like a pretty high price, even for a very nice shirt. oh well |
| ____________________________________________ [Jan 3,2013 12:01pm - andrewbastard nli ""] I spent 38 in a bid war on ebay for a deathrace king shirt... |

| ___________________________________ [Jan 3,2013 1:36pm - trioxin245 ""] Also I have two different aquilus demos from maybe five years ago that arent nearly as good as the album. |
| _________________________________ [Jan 3,2013 11:21pm - Snowden ""] Halfway through the record and I like this, but it also seems kind of...aimless and meandering I guess. Is that what bands/reviewers mean when they talk about film scores? Anyhow, thanks for posting it! |
| ________________________________ [Jan 4,2013 4:42pm - Snowden ""] After a couple of listens, this totally reminds me of the new Wintersun record. Except on downers instead of whatever super-ritalin Jari was railing. |
